laodan rated 9 months ago- Wozniak's New Goal is Efficient Housing
Apple Inc. co-founder and legendary hacker Steve Wozniak recently found a new passion in energy-efficient housing. Last month he told PC World magazine, "I have a long dream to build my own house in a very energy-efficient approach. The form of energy efficiency that appeals greatly to me is the idea of efficiency of construction. I have always admired getting the same results with fewer parts or procedures. That's a win for everyone. I used that concept in my design approach in life. For example, ram-dirt is a material made of the dirt dug under where your home will be. It uses less energy than any other building material form to create, with a machine right at the construction site. ... A home made of this should last 500 years, not just 75 years.

By Earth-Tec Victoria's premier earth building contractor. Architecture is a passion of mine. I built a home by myself in Belgium around 1980 so I know what I speak about and... I feel close to Steve Wozniak's approach. Now I'm thinking about building a new adobe abode next year along the following lines: - simple design - passive solar techniques: fully glass southern exposure (New York area),... - walls: rammed dirt.
