GEORGIA ADOBE ECOITECTURETM
WHY BUILD A GEORGIA ADOBE HOME™ ?
YES, WERE A VERY DIFFERENT KIND OF DESIGNER AND BUILDER!
A Georgia Adobe Home™ is not an underground structure, but instead it's an Earth Sheltered structure, this is so it can heat and cool itself from free solar energy and the Earth's constant temperature at about 5 feet down and with much thicker walls 2.5+ feet (much thicker than conventional construction buildings have) and do to the high amounts of temperature regulating thermal mass piled upon those thick walls you don't feel temperature swings, a Georgia Adobe HomeTM. You can make your own power, water, grow food and be built from basically free materials (Earth) plus other natural, local and often free materials and generally when the structure is built per our suggestions and plans, your building could be pretty much paid for, the day you move in. No House payments are our goal in this situation, so the focus is towards that end, will be the rule if budget is your goal. If budget is more liberal less than passive more conventional designs can be planned, but when that is the plan costs go up. Our belief is that the Georgia Adobe Ecoitecture Home™, is the #1 ecologically self-sustainable, independent design & construction company on the planet! From our building designs to our systems designs, we believe our product
is far beyond any simple "LEED" construction standard designs and you can trust Georgia Adobe™ to always bring our best consultation team, to your project!
Georgia Adobe's™ earth sheltered structures plans, provide about everything one will need to live freely, in this modern age, without giving up style, quality or modern comforts.
We generally build design large custom homes of 10,000 SQ FT or greater, but
if you are the actual builder (and not us), we can design a much smaller structure for you, that works as our designs described herein does through this website,
we can also for the DIY Builder, work to teach you how to do it yourself & even if tiny homes are your choice that works for us.
We invite you all that are ready to build, to call and discuss your project with us, free of charge for the first conversation on the phone,
just to see how we can be of service to you and your project so, when you are ready to build, dial us at 706-363-6453. Office hours are M-F 10 AM-5 PM
In our opinion, we all need 6 basic things, from our homes design & Georgia Adobe HomesTM provide it all:
An affordable shelter is first, that can also Heat/Cool itself without electricity, having on tap ample water supplies, being independent of public utilities, producing electricity on demand independent of public utilities but being able to use them as your back up, and year-round growing ample food, inside the structure and disposal of liquid waste on site. Allow us to explain in six links below:
Page links are in blue and open in a new page.
1.)Affordable Housing & Shelter
Georgia Adobe Homes™ are built from high amounts of almost free thermal mass, thus they can be built affordably, from locally sourced Earth (yes, perhaps from the property you own),
which becomes an insulated rammed Earth, packed in permanent forms, combined with other local, natural and low-cost materials, making for a very strong building, able to withstand most all kinds of weather, at a dirt-cheap price compared to conventional construction cost.
2.) Heating & Cooling.
Georgia Adobe Homes™ can heat & cool themselves without electricity (a 45 - 50% electricity savings per DOE US estimates)
through passive solar and passive ventilation alone (they can maintain about 70 degrees through this process), which can create
almost a totally self-sustainable, on or off grid - 24/7/365 home. Through on-site electric power generation
normally the structure will operate electrically, without public utility connections more affordably than conventional construction does, due to the above.
3.) Fresh Water
Georgia Adobe's™ can capture rainwater (at about 620 US gal. per 1000 sq. ft. of clean roof), then filter it &/or make that water potable and can convert
1 gal of fresh water after a 1st use, over into 4 gallons of water usable by way of a greywater system, (for things such as watering the
gardens, or toilet flushing) thus there's no need for public water, [if your building site gets about 8+ inches of rainfall yearly] and a large enough
collection/storage of fresh water is built.
4.)Electricity
Georgia Adobe's™ are as a machine function with the objective towards storage or make what energy is required, and this includes electric power.
This is why Georgia Adobe's™ heat and cool themselves. Electricity requires systems, such as batteries, chargers, etc. such as solar PV or generators
inverters controllers and more, and these systems are smaller on Georgia Adobe's™, because of the energy storage into the thermal mass of the buildings envelop.
This ensures money is not wasted by oversizing an energy system.
5.) Food Production
South facing Northern Hemisphere structures will capture sunlight that warms the interior enough to not need
heat systems. This can also heat a green space that we call our Wintergarden™. Herein, one can grow
a large percentage of their food including vegetables and fish with the fresh and greywater.
6.) Waste Disposal
Georgia Adobe's™ have plumbing that functions conventionally and thereby handles all liquid wastes on site
through septic systems and mostly conventional plumbing, with just a few additions to process, filter and reuse the greywater.
With all basic needs met by The Georgia Adobe Home™ an easier lifestyle comes to the owner. with a self-sustainable and independent modern home,
that can appear outside as you desire, allowing it to basically blend into any area outside and it works for the owner inexpensively, for life or build in the traditional passive solar style facing the rising Sun of Winter. Generally, when built per our plans and instructions, the home can be a paid for home, pretty much from day one as well and having no mortgage payments is a blessing in this inflationary high interest times that we live within. If you're building a new home, or just remodeling a structure including residential, commercial, agricultural industrial or retail structure, through the Georgia Adobe building system, this system can work in most of those situations too.
So, if you're interested in getting started, call us first and that first call is always free of charge to talk about your plans, [for the 1st phone call], just to see how we can help you!
AND, if you need off grid equipment, and or producer fuel systems designed for your home site and/or the entire fuel systems and facility crafted? WE DO THIS TOO!
