This post-and-beam structure in the Dordogne is specific to the Bois et Paille houses, since the self-builders chose to completely clad their walls on the outside. A layer of slurry protects the straw before the cladding is installed. Bois et Paille therefore cut and raised the structure and accompanied the project through the technical issues.
