After all, they can be constructed out of hay. So I'm curious whether they can take numerous grass petals and compact them into some fine building material. Then maybe they can make the roof out of condensed palm fronds. That way the home can be naturally resilient to rainwater. And you can have a green home both literally and figuratively. Is this kind of engineering possible?

i watched a man called ray mears make a shelter from palm















leaves and it was water proof so it looks like you can make















things out what you find

I am sure that if they spent the money to research it, you could easily do just as you suggest. But the big manufacturers have too much tied up in their extant products and the cement and brick works wouldn't be too keen either.































But there is no reason why not...I have told you before of my dream of a house made of hay bales...why not plant materials...though in reality humans are so disgusting that we would end up deforesting the planet to build mansions out of what we had convinced ourselves were eco materials.































Just as we are forcing the third world to starve by turning valuable crop fields into Palm forests for our Diesel to put in our Prado's instead just catching the f*cking bus!!

They are huts you are thinking of like in the Philippines or in Malaysia















and in Borneo and places like that. In rain forests and jungles.
