For me, the coolest thing about CLT is that since it's made up of such small boards, it can use trees that are taken in forest thinning that would have just gone to firewood or fuel pellets before. A 6" log can yield three or four boards suitable for CLT.
Yes!
So it should be dirt cheap right? Yeah right
Drinking the coolade
glorified particle board
Do you realize just how much wood is needed to do this? The amount of trees we would need to grow for everyone to build this way would be insane. Way more than thinning wood!
I am fully impressed! It's just a complete ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxGqOCINHE0Z0E5gxzSdNi9NWGugRY5Hm2 plan with the best resources and step by step instructions . These shed plans are so satisfying as if the sheds build themselves on their own. Worthy work Ryan!
NOT my cup of tea…HOWEVER, I absolutely LOVE the high degree of thinking and deliberation behind the recyclability of the building’s material composition. I’m not into super modern style homes but it’s intriguing to see such thought put into decisions on thing like the central placement of the HVAC. It might not work in most home layouts but I really love seeing that level of consideration reflected in a homes energy consumption as it’s being designed and built. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I love the diversity that is coming into new builds. Please keep it up!!
I love that too I would like a cork shower like an outdoor house moon on the gate too
L out L
This is the house of the future. Huge congrats to Cross Cabin for putting it all together, must be very satisfying for everyone, especially the new owners.
I hope stuff like this catches on. A thousand suns could not match the intensity of my hatred of all things drywall and paint. 🌞👍
We are fast reaching the point where sustainability is going to be the only game in town. Credit to you for being in the vanguard with these gorgeous systems that have a light environmental footprint
If you're doing exposed duct work, might want to look into fabric ducts. They weigh nearly nothing, they can be any color you want, and you can unzip them and put them in the washer if they get dusty.
I’ve never heard of fabric ducts. Sounds very cool and very research worthy.
@@johnlee7085
From what I've been able to find on the web:
Fabric ducts do not use registers to disperse the air, but diffuse air through the fabric. They must be laundered once or twice per year because of dust & (possible) mold accumulation; they have zipper closures that make removal/replacement (supposedly) simple.
It's an intriguing idea.
Fantastic! Thanks for showing off this great modern CLTechnique in a home setting. Glad to see clt making some headway in the US. Nice job Greg catching the falling roll and saving the shot!
I’m a bit skeptical about keeping the shower clean. I remember seeing the cork ceilings above the pool at Hearst Castle, and they held up ok for 80 yrs, but weren’t without problems
@@yekutielbenheshel354 you need to learn to write scientifically. How are they “superior”? Proclamations without explanation adds nothing to the conversation. Is the porosity a problem of cork for the absorption and accumulation of soap scum? Here again; “Cork is better than wood” oh?
Mostly teasing. Enjoy 😂
@@yekutielbenheshel354 i guess only one of us is allowed to dole out critiques. you seem to think i’m disagreeing with you-i’m not. but i was only passing by on my way back to my hole.
…shore durameter… listen to this silly bugger. 🤭
I had to show this to my wife because she is always railing on the building industry for not coming up with a better alternative for drywall after all of these years of the same old dusty mess that needs constant repair.
You got a point, but that'll make any after work or repairs a lot more involved and harder to hide
What stopping you now from leaving all the electrical work exposed outside of the drywall, just like its exposed here? lol, and how does it need constant repairs? My drywalls never needed a repair, but I live in EU so maybe we just make them better.
@@faustinpippin9208 The main enemies of drywall are teenagers.
All the termites in Florida would love this house.
Love this build! Cedar in the bathroom would add even more to the aroma factor.
Yeah, I'm thinking the same. Cedar smells amazing, would last really long, and be easy to replace eventually.
This house comes with a 5 gallon bucket of push pins.
Sure makes hanging Christmas lights easier!
Haha damn that was a good laugh
😂😂😂
Exterior grade, no less.
Just don't let the kids loose with crayons & markers on the interior wood walls or the clean-up will be 😱🤬😩😖😭🥵
We are coming full circle, I love it.
The house looks great Greg!! Congratulations on this beautiful project.
Next year on a follow-up of this house, "How I hate my cork shower." I see that as a cleaning nightmare. All kinds of natural spaces for dirt, grime, soap scum, and bacteria to grow in.
That is the same thing I was thinking.
I remember someone who years ago had a cork bathroom which had many layers of varnish and gave years of trouble-free service
Yes, I would have liked to hear what they are contemplating to counteract the affects of soap, body oil, skin and the sweat we attempt to wash away. Soap has that tendancy to cling and accumulate on surfaces due to many of them having a surfactant such as sodium stearate which reduces a surface's ability to repel water base solutions.
Yuck, totally agree.
BUT, if it's a weekend cabin that sees
Cork is naturally antibacterial. The same reason it will work on the exterior should make it work on the interior.
Probably similar to why wood cutting boards are actually more sanitary than plastic. Evolution produces some amazing materials.
And hey, if it doesn't work, who cares? It's an easy fix and zero waste.
I hope my next home has electrical conduit just applied to the inside walls. Easy to install and the electrical inspection is a snap!
Notice a lot of pretty major gaps between CLT panels in both the floors and walls, wished you could have asked him about that. Also the mixed horizontal/vertical orientation of the planks on the wall panels would drive me insane.
You are killing it Dr. Matt! Awesome content.
CLT seems perfect for garages and tiny homes. Slap a perfect wall on the outside and you’ve got a solid build for small span buildings.
Think you never saw Holz100 from Austria as many of you. 😂
In commercial industry we’re just starting to get into a lot of mass timber, its becoming increasingly attractive to developers & owners so we’re starting to see a lot of it. Currently I’m building the new UA-cam HQ in CA and they have incorporated a lot of mass timber into the design.
Very cool house! I DMed you last year about wanting to see more holistic projects that have modern performance with natural materials so - like you said in the video - a house can be torn down in 200 years and turn into compost after 9 months instead of polluting in a landfill. Really inspired by this project. CLT is an amazing product that I hope we see more of in N America
Gorgeous. Thoughtful, innovative… just absolutely stunning. And plants! Grow plants, eat plants, and now… live in plants. I love it! And honestly, I could watch these two talk build talk all day, every single day. More please.
FYI Frank Lloyd Wright experimented with cork finished showers in his falling water house. If I remember correctly he had an issue with it rotting out after awhile and they had to be replaced periodically.
This is very nice. It looks like the electrical industry needs to step up though, and come up with exposed conduit that looks good in spaces like this. That exposed electric looks bad!
Agreed. Love the overall look, but I think the exposed electrical would tick me off after a while.
I’m sure if you were doing a custom build, you could do more with wall sconces and smart-home feature to reduce the need for unnecessary outlets and switches.
Frank Lloyd Wright used cork in his design for the bathrooms in Fallingwater so it does last.
I should send a picture of the shower in my 1943 vintage house basement. Same size as your cork, but mine is glazed brick. Doubles as my tornado shelter. N.E.OH Bob
There are a lot of interesting architectural choices in this house that are unique, interesting and give a nice sense of modern living. I love wood interiors but the exposed electrical looks like an unfinished basement.
I don't see why you couldn't just put in a tall but low profile (easily removable) wood base board to cover the electrical runs and give the outlets a place to rest. Perhaps you could use hollow column structures for vertical runs. It would add character to the house (Victorian vibe) and make it look more finished.
This right here. It looks a high-end garage-mah-hal.
Good Vid, Cool Design and Structure !
I love a lot of it. Not everything but definitely I see the benefits of implementing certain aspects.
cork i for a shower ! It's not a hygienic surface, it can't be cleaned or disinfected
I like the creativity with the shower and the porosity is not a problem because of the rain screed but I wonder about soap scum and all those little declivities.
Yeah, it seems like it would be a huge pain to clean. I'd really love to know more about their plan for the shower and those kinds of considerations, since it's such a unique and interesting idea. If there's a way to make it work well, I'd love to consider doing that when I remodel. I love the look!
You clean soap scum with a palm sander once a month.
very cool house! Congrats for the innovative approach in material usage!
Brilliant, not just because of the use of state-of-the-art materials and manufacturing, but also that it's 1000 sq ft. Is the era of mini-mansions officially over?
welp thanks to the gov printing money like crazy (tax inflation) everyone is dirt poor so I guess it has to end lol
In my country like 3 years ago people thought a 100m2 home is good, but now after the gov createad a huge inflation people are happy just with living in trailers. (everything here is more expensive then in Germany while people make 400$ per month)
Love this house! Wish it would work in Canada!
I honestly can't fathom all the praise in the comments for this. This isn't a wood house, it's a glue house chinked with wood. Exposed services is a step up are you kidding?? Love the places for dust & bugs not to mention its just uh-gly.
Remember all the problems with sip panels? Of course not, don't worry about all those joints & gaps. It's all 500 year solid
Q: do the fireproof (ha!) toxic glues make it impervious to termites and decay?
There are better ways to eliminate sheetrock. BTW, how much does this cost??
For the most part I like the house. I am wondering how the house would work with the freeze-thaw snow and rain in the North
We use this style of construction with no issues here in norway. You might hear some noise from the wood during big temperature swings.
@@Rokmahr008 With the freeze-thaw, I was meaning in relation to the cork siding. It doesn't take on water he said, but it does have holes and fissures in its surface that water could get into and freeze. Maybe causing issues over time, that's me questionable concern.
probably not done yet but I hope the receptacles are getting some additional detailing compared to the other details which are great it looks like an after thought. if you swept down on all the receptacles you could incase the portion along the floor in a wood baseboard and perhaps integrate the vertical portion into. a wooden stile. I think the aludea would be to try to make the receptacle place ment look like it was placed to match the pattern and not the other way around as the locations are driven by code
Agreed. I liked them on the Perfect Wall house because they looked good in the stud cavities, but I'm not loving the look on surface of the solid CLT walls.
absolutely love the idea and realisation! truly inspiring. thanks for this great video and the clear explanations! (i am developping an autonomous sustainable houseboat)
7:19 spidey senses on point!
Awesome construction. It's really cool to see the different ways to build a house.
Personally I love the wood and the cork. I have questions on the durability of the cork, but I really like the look and the idea of it. What does the manufacturer recommend for cleaning it?
Should've painted the conduit some or rethought the material for all that exposed conduit and outlets.other then that it's purdy cool.
There is a way to hide it ua-cam.com/video/VbR0Px6KMtw/v-deo.html
Fallingwater has a cork shower..... 1937.
Still pretty cool though!
How tight can you make a building like this? Have you done a blower door test in it? Thanks for sharing, I love this! Only a few good quality, sensory pleasurable, healthy house ingredients, and on steel piles too! So cool 😎 love no drywall
I imagine it is extremely tight.. depending on the joins,,, But the wind won’t sail through solid wood
Interesting, but those panel gaps are a bit rough
I would like to see a video on how the shower went together and list of products and vendors
What was a R value of the roof and walls?
mass timber walls aren't the same as stick framing, the biggest difference is that their vapor profile is more similar to a mass wall e.g. like solid masonry than a framed wall. although wood is definitely vapor open, once you start accumulating very thick, continuous layers of it, it behaves more like a solid mass wall hygrothermally because it is... a solid mass.
This means that CLT walls that get wet take a very, very long time to dry out relative to a framed wall. Which may or may not be an issue depending on how much water it initially took up, and what the interior conditions are like.
Either way, you really, really do not want to get rain on the panels if you can help it. The wetter they get during construction, the longer you'll have to run supplemental dehumidification indoors after it's finished.
Love the no drywall aspect!
Matt did you ask or see what the plan was for the roof part of the building envelope? Also cork up there or switch to another insulation type?
This is dope
"cross LAMINATED timber ... has been getting a lot of PRESS lately" (pun unintended!)
Nice, but what about the off-gassing form the glues? I definitely do not like drywall and am in process of designing my build and hope I can find alternate materials.
With the crawl space how does the water not freeze during the rare Texas cold snaps? Or the floors not be cold without insulation from a slab?
Super cool matt
It’s like a remake of single wall almost
7:19 - dad-instincts ^^
Wow! What a great concept and execution! Nice looking sliding door also! What manufacturer did you use???
That cork shower wall is gonna grow so much mildew
How would you adapt construction for a cold climate, like Minnesota?
Love it!
Love it.
Lack of rain screen would be interesting to see how it fares in a few years
“Permeable” was the word you were looking for
Gosh if that was my place, I'd have guitars everywhere.
Interesting concept but........this guy is nuts!
How cool! Love it.
Glad you like it! Fun house to visit
This IS the future, now.
I enjoyed the walk-through and love the CLT, but had to laugh at the cork shower. How do you plan to clean it?
10:30 can we please get a follow up video in a year or two to see how this has held up?
Thanks!
I could be wrong but I suspect this would be pretty good in wildfire country.
I absolutely love the house! How is the smell of the cork on the inside? This cork smells a little bit burned. Does the smell disappear over time ? Thanks!
Does anyone know what the VOC or off-gassing is on these panels..? I would worry about indoor air quality..
I love this house and it's what I want to do having exposed services.
All about that. Zero drywall lifestyle
How is this material affected by freeze thaw cycles? Great tour!
What is the r value of a clt wall with the cork?
Love the wood! I am curious about the cost. How much was this build?
Impressive
I would love to build a home like this. It’s so well thought out. Very little waste and time building… I just never will be able to afford to build a CLT home here in Toronto. A plot of land is a million bucks then you go from there. Ugh.
Zero Drywall = Yes Please
Alot of TLC went into this CLT house😜
Love the wood, but can't say I am a fan of the EMT... especially if they need to run some data cables later. Curious what a better detail could have been.
ua-cam.com/video/VbR0Px6KMtw/v-deo.html
Similar thought.
My idea is similar to Matt’s comment on the wood panel access. It would be reasonably easy to have a wooden baseboard that has an open cavity back for running the cable.
The only other thing is wire mold, it looks a bit better but is expensive.
How did you get your wall buildup past the esd police. Pretty sure cork just to clt would fail in Australia. Also given the esd calculators don’t have the right parameters for cork and clt yet here. Interested as we doing modular clt buildings .
It's interesting, but I think more of a curiosity than a viable construction method for most people.
Please follow up on his cork shower. I would love to know how it fares over time.
Very cool house, one question, how do you clean the cork shower? It will get residue from soap, etc. just curious. Does not need to be perfect, some patina is certainly expected but I am wondering how to best maintain?
Love it. How are the exterior walls anchored?
Termite feces
Very cool. But how can you scrub the scum that build up in the shower?
I don't dislike the wood interior, but it's a bit overwhelming. The cork shower however is really cool, now it just needs a boatload of light in there.
It’s easier to leave it natural, but I’m sure my wife would agree with you. That being said, it would still be easy to paint one or more walls if desired. And definitely easier than Matts other house referenced in the video.
There was a lot of talk about indoor air quality. But isn't that CLT all held together with a ton of glue? Does that not off-gas?
The panels came with the moisture barrier adhered. How do the joints get protected? What did the plans examiner say about the shower?
Fires would be a nightmare
Thanks for sharing this project, it's really great. I have so many questions. Is there a reason there is no insulation under the floor? Is it not required in local building code. Maybe it's a US thing? Also when I have used the expanded cork internally, there is still a lot of soot, has this one been cleaned before installation? Is there a reason why a section of floor is built traditionally with floor joists and not CLT?
This is amazing! I've been looking for information on CLT construction AND on Cork siding/paneling!! 🙌🤯💯 Anyone aware of low/zero VOC wood sealer/water-proofing?🙏👀
Yep , it's called linseed oil
I LOVE surface mounted electrical. I hate when wiring is hidden behind walls.
yup, just great, curious bout that shower. how well will it handle soap, dirt etc. I know cork has all kinds of anti bact and fungus kind of behaviour..but that much?
Termites love you!
really cool! I wonder how the pricing of these materials compares to something like CEBs + stucco.
With everyone so worried about energy efficiency, why aren't builders and remodelers using foil faced insulation. When we built my parents house, it was done entirely with foil faced insulation. My brother and I installed it. My mom's heating bills are a fraction of her neighbors houses, of similar size, and she keeps it at 75°. It's basic physics. The foil prevents heat loss due to radiation. The heat is reflected back into the building.
Most of the energy lost is due to air leakage, radiation is only a small part of the energy loss of an enclosure.
its all in ur head
@@PerfectPrinceX1 Funny how the industry says that a heat reflective barrier turns the R-12 in your walls to R-17.8.
