All of Integral Design Studio’s straw bale plans incorporate an internal modified post and beam structure, with bales on edge as infill. These plans also have concrete slab or adobe floors which act as the main thermal mass. Plans may be reversed to better accommodate specific sites and design services are available for custom modifications to these existing plans for an additional hourly fee.
