Building the Soul Cabin!

12/10/2021

0 Comments

 
Since launching the Earth Cabin in May this year, Donna & I have had an amazing experience.
We have learned and grown.
Now, the building of the second cabin, the Soul Cabin has started.

​Our builders are Shawn & Sandra Palmer of 4th Pig Pty Ltd.
(the 1st pig made of straw, 2nd of sticks, 3rd of bricks, 4th pig...
 rammed earth, naturally!)

This first 3 weeks of October we have made unavailable so we can make some serious building sounds. It is very exciting! 
The intention is that all of the rammed earth earth walls  will be completed in this period.
​Donna & I can then focus on landscaping.

The big difference with the Soul Cabin is the addition of some colour in the construction of the walls.

​We are also introducing some different colour into the polished concrete floor,

I see the two colours as representing the Earth & Soul theme, red for the earth and the white for spirituality and the sky. 
​This is the first wall of the Soul Cabin which we completed last Saturday, 9th October 2021.

So far, we have completed two wall sections and two columns.

There is a lot that will be happening this week and next week.
After that, Shawn & Sandra have building commitments elsewhere.
Construction will continue in the new year.
​Hopefully we will be ready in time for the Apple & Grape Festival.

See you soon...
regards... Mark & Donna
