RE: Building Blocks with Market Friday

in Market Friday3 years ago

This was such an interesting read, I had heard of ICF buildings but hadn't done any research on them,
wow a 7 foot door that's huge, and a two floor walk in closet throw in the swimming pool a mansion :) but a very efficient one

here is my post for this week

Hello there! :) Thanks so much, JJ! @tattoodjay I have been looking at them for a few years and I am definitely in love with the method. I can't believe that in the middle of winter, I can go in that house that isn't heated/cooled yet and has a cement floor still - it was actually warm from the passive heat of the sun. Yes!

That two-floor walk-in closet was over the top, but, it can be useful for other purposes. The indoor swimming pool is actually affordable when you do it when the house is built, otherwise, they are prohibitive nowadays. I like saltwater pools, so much less maintenance and better for your skin.

I think you would have enjoyed running through it. Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving your words and your link!!

#MarketFriday loves you!

That is Amazing no heating and warm inside in winter
It’s a brilliant idea

Well, to be fair, you need heat, but, nothing like what is normally used. Solar would be my choice.

Ohh yes I think SOlar lends itself to an ICF build for sure
