centuries; characterized by slender vertical piers and
counterbalancing buttresses and by vaulting and pointed
arches.
Gothic Architecture has nothing to do with the

of the Renaissance period on mediƦval architecture, which
they termed Gothic or clumsy, fit for barbarians.

I am building a house in Iowa by the strict requirements and dimensionality of Sthapatya-ved. As you probably know, these dimensions are specific to certain harmonic structures generated by the architectural style and my astologic chart. The outer walls will be approximately 10.5 inches thick. I would like to use some sort of straw/clay mixture, but I also live in a very cold climate. It is not unusual to have -10 degree temperatures for several weeks on end. I have friends who built with rammed earth and their environment is miserable during winter, always fighting the fly-wheeling of energy in the earth structure. Can you shed any light on the true insulation value of a straw clay mixture in this climate.
