The mud and adobe house designs They have become very famous, and as expected from our website, today we have made a compilation of them so you can enjoy them. So if you are interested, do not move from the screen because right now we are starting this new article that comes from the collaborative hand of our colleagues from Architecture Planet... We start!

Mud and Adobe House Designs - Which One is Your Favorite?

The mud house designs Every day they look more modern and they were far from those old houses with little aesthetic sense. Mud houses are an excellent option when building a home because they are resistant to inclement weather, they are thermo-climatic houses and best of all, they have a lower cost than a traditional house.

Mud houses made with adobe

The mud house designs made with adobe they use rough clay brick. It dries in the sun and is used as the main material for construction. But how do you get these bricks? It is very simple they are made from a mixture of clay, water and some binder in small quantities such as well chopped straw. The result is these beautiful rustic house designs.

Advantages of mud houses

Among the advantages of mud houses we find that it has an excellent soundproofing capacity. What do we mean by this? That isolates the noise almost 100% not bad to rest in those restorative naps. The second advantage they have is that they thermally insulate the home, making it cooler in summer and warm in winter, not bad, right? As if that were not enough with these two advantages, clay houses have a significant protective effect against cosmic radiation and those transmitted by antennas. In this way, the biotic quality of the place is better.

Mud House Designs - Environmentally Friendly

The mud house designs They are environmentally friendly as they are made from wet clay bricks which are then molded and then dried and hardened. In the construction of adobe houses, the drying process is crucial since it is the main responsible for the resistance that the house has later. The reason? The particles in clay fuse together and make extremely close ceramic bonds that are almost inseparable. That is why this type of rustic houses.

Cost of a mud house

Mud houses can cost up to 50% less than traditional houses. It is that mud houses have initial expenses like all houses but then the maintenance is extremely low. Think about the following: mud houses do not warp, they do not rust even they are not attacked by termites or much of the problems that traditional houses have. That is why the only thing you will spend when doing it is electricity, plumbing and painting.

Traditional Spanish architecture, a unique trip for its best designs and style

Today Facades World we turn red and yellow and we take an almost complete tour of Spain to analyze and share their traditional architecture and their best designs and styles. Do not miss it, dear readers, because we are starting right now… here we go!

Traditional Spanish architecture

In Spain we can find a diversity wonderful architectural, so, that until today is overwhelming. That is why on the day of the date from our website we have decided to start a small visual trip through the most striking Spanish typical houses in the country. Do not fall asleep eh, because the trip is about to begin.

**Farmhouses:** The farmhouses are isolated constructions, always linked to an agrarian and livestock farm of family type. In mountain areas, **the material most used for its construction was the unpolished stone**, and in places where it was scarce, adobe was used for construction

**Barrack:** the barrack is a typical building of the Valencian Community and the Region of Murcia that served as housing for the farmers, so it is located in the irrigated orchards. It has a rectangular floor plan, about nine by five meters, with adobe walls and a triangular cover of hurricane and straw with a marked angle to drain the torrential rainfall typical of the area.

**Cave Houses:** In Granada, cave houses have been a reality that has lasted beyond prehistory. Thus, they had a first boom during the Muslim conquest of Andalusia, and another at the end of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Today, some 3.000 families from Granada continue to inhabit them.

**Casona Montañesa:** characteristic of Cantabria, this type of house stands out for its **southern facade**, open to the sun and light thanks to the characteristic «solana», a **balcony with wooden railing** protected from winds and rain by side walls.

**Farmhouses:** The cortijos are the type of dispersed rural habitat typical of the whole southern area of Spain, and its main characteristic is that they consist of an extensive surrounding territory for agricultural exploitation. The base of the cortijo is a large patio, around which were located the **livestock constructions**, those of work (forge, carpentry, etc) and those of storage, as well as the kitchen and the rooms of the workers.

**Pasiega Cabin:** the pasiega cabin was house, barn and hayloft at the same time, and is typical of the Cantabrian mountain. The ground floor was for animals, and the upper floor was used as housing and storage. The most curious thing about these constructions is that they were only inhabited during the warm season.

**Hamlet:** a hamlet and a quintana are **independent housing surrounded by agricultural land**, only that the first belongs to the Basque Country and to Navarre, while the second belongs to Cantabria and Asturias. Its construction is done in stone, and can reach 15 meters in height.

**Pazo:** the manor is a **manor house**, normally located in the countryside, and once the residence of important people in the community. They consist of a main building surrounded by a garden, a dovecote and often, small chapels.

**Farmhouse:** the farmhouse is a **farm house with farm** of a considerable size that consisted of a small watchtower, an interior patio and some adjoining constructions. Some of them were also fortified with palisades, mud walls or defense towers. Nowadays, they only fulfill a decorative task.

**Pallozas:** Of circular or oval plant with between ten and twenty meters of diameter, these houses of primitive aspect possess **low stone walls** and are covered by a **conical vegetable roof**, usually formed by stems of rye. Its appearance is old, yes, but it is because its origin is also: it is believed that they were Celtic buildings.
