Here is some information on the sweet rental house I live in! It's a renovated ranch style house 2.5 miles from the U of O campus. It's nice to have a longer bike commute since often it's the only time to be outside on those busy studio days!
New parts of the house:
Skylights in the kitchen and studio space
American Clay Plaster walls and ceilings
Lime Plaster bathroom with cob partitions
Wood burning stove for heat
Big back porch half covered, half not
Materials from BRING Recycling Center, even an old gym floor as the new flooring of the house
Earthen floor in the kitchen, very durable, but also soft to sand on compared to concrete. One of my aunts vases blew off the window sill and didn't break on the floor.
Wood fired outdoor cob oven
Gardens raspberries, tomatoes, peas,
Fruit trees including apple, pear, peach, a fig and 2 kiwis!
