Cob houses / Adobe houses
Cob and adobe houses are both types of earthen houses, which are made from a mixture of clay, sand, and straw. Cob houses are built by hand, using a technique called cobbing, which involves stacking and compressing the cob mixture until the walls are the desired height and thickness. Adobe houses are made from adobe bricks, which are sun-dried bricks made from the same cob mixture.
