Answer / guest
Need some insulation in the shell of your home to be
comfortable in that climate, and rocks and soil will not
provide that. It is possible to make a double wall with
stones, so that insulation can be created in the hollow
space, but this is a lot of work. Also, earthen materials
can be insulated (ideally on the outside) with synthetic
insulation, and then plastered. More natural insulation
materials that you might find are: strawbales, rice hulls
(placed in earthbags), crushed volcanic rock (placed in
earthbags). Most likely some sort of hybrid structure
utilizing a variety of materials will work best .
