[Cob] A Question for Everyone - adobe vs cob

[Tys Sniffen]

Adobe is bricks, which have some advantages. but a brick system (dried adobe
bricks mortared together with natural mortar) isn't as stable in earthquake
zones.  

 

And, as said before, cob can be any shape you want (and we like curves)

 

If you don't live in any earthquake zone, and have the space to set out
bricks to dry in the sun, and you like square rooms. adobe is just fine.
