Hello yall me and my wife will be buying some land within the next 5 years in the upper Midwest/superior highland. (northern Minnesota, three northern counties in Wisconsin, Marquette Michigan) we want to build with natural materials and have a homestead. My only problem is, is that it seems the most suitable for that area will be straw bale construction, it seems though, if going that route you have to have some square walls, I have worked in construction for over 10 years and have come to the conclusion that I fucking hate 90° degree corners and would rather rounded walls. Are there ways to not have a stereotypical looking house while still builidng with natural materials in the superior upland region? We would have to prepare for a lot of snow and fluctuations in tempature seasonally (thankfully it stays humid enough where you don’t have to deal with the tempature swings of the southwest) i figured asking this sub sense it’s the most active and the natural building sub isn’t at all active
