We can help you build your own adobe home in many ways. We are here to help in as much or as little as you may need. Here are the ways we have helped our DIY clients:
- On-Site Training - We come to you to teach you how to build with adobe in as much time as is necessary.
- Off-Site Training - Come learn at one of our workshops, or assist an adobe home currently under construction.
- Consultation - Whether by phone, email, Skype, or good old face to face, we are here to answer any questions that arise during the construction process.
- Equipment Rental - Our unique set of molds can be expensive and time consuming to make, therefore renting them can be a good option. That way you can borrow them to make your bricks, and when you're done, just send them back!

Adobe brick structures can be designed to suit any architectural style. Many of us think of the typical Southwest adobe look, but the construction system can be used nearly anywhere in the world to suit many architectural styles. Adobe can even be adapted for colder climates, with the use of insulation or a wider wall. However the 12" wide adobe brick wall is appropriate for most climates and all modern engineering principles can be applied to the adobe masonry method.
A good way to get started with your design is to look over our Design Questionnaire. Here you can think about your unique site, use of space, style preferences, and all the little details that go into designing a home. If you like, send this back to us, and for a small fee we will put together a concept floor plan based on your needs.
