There is no need for cement mortar because the entire wall is one monolithic unit, not separate blocks. One of the significant benefits of rammed earth is its high thermal mass, it can absorb heat during the day and release it at night. This moderates daily temperature variations and reduces the need for conditioning and heating. Rammed earth construction is termite-resistant, non-toxic, inherently fireproof and ultimately biodegradable. We have tried adding different pigments to the earth to create colour layered walls. One can also add varied textures by choosing different formworks. The raw earth like aesthetic quality of rammed earth and the thermal comfort it provides as well as its eco-friendliness makes us choose rammed earth as our preferred material in construction.
