Couple feels right at home in eco-friendly house made of straw

Couple feels right at home in eco-friendly house made of straw: "Miles off the paved highway and at the end of a long, bumpy driveway that cuts deep into the woods, Mick Womersley puts the finishing touches on his solar panel-topped home. It's not your ordinary rural dwelling, even for one designed to be ecologically sound. Womersley, a human ecology professor, and his wife, Aimee Phillippi, live comfortably in a house built of roughly 200 straw bales."

There's a couple that lives in Palmer, Alaska that have had a huge article written about them, too. I think the guy was part of the Green party here. The house was quite interesting and apparently 5+ star rating.
