34 viewsThe idea is to use the commonly available regular cement blocks but add an insulating factor by leaving a row of air between the blocks. dozer

With respect to the plan, I would have done a more thorough job. There are a number of books sold at the bookstores here, which have 100's of house designs in them. I would try to find a nice design suitable for the shape of the land, and have the dozer
