The west and south walls of the main floor were built using the double stackwall technique, first developed by Cliff Shockey of Saskatchewan.
The upper story of the house is supported by a post and beam structure, with the bale wall and stackwall added as infill between the posts.
The house sits on a thickened-edge slab. The entire main floor heating system is in-floor heat using heating pipe encased in the slab.
The east and north facing walls of the main floor are constructed of wheat straw bales built into the post and beam frame.
