Permaculture Shelter Design

Buildings and structures are an important part of the human element in a Permaculture system. Ecological design and green architecture are vast fields that this video is just scratching the surface on. This video provides a simple overview of building design for the major climate zones.

I’m a fan of your clear and call speaking style. Feels like listening to the ocean and learning at the same time. 🙏

Interesting, I've always thought that the person who built my house, around 100 years ago, was a genius. Watching the temperate zone section, confirms it. He had it all, both in the main house and the cottage (old horseless carriage building, too beautiful for a garage), will add a green house there for the cold season. I'm going to be making changes to my property, based on these videos. Also adding a pond or two. It's already a food forest/wildlife habitat and permaculture, with a few things to fix. Even my new roof meets the requirements (with zero idea it did.)

You lucky lucky person. Old buildings are so cool, especially when they've been maintained properly. Age is an aesthetic.

I am planning to start my homestead next this year. Thank you for your videos. My homestead will be located in tropical area.

[@brunovalverde2091]

Have you done it yet? Mind sharing your location to get an idea where 😅

[@TrungNguyen-sw9lk]

This video is very useful for me and for many people who want to build a permaculture system that I believe. Thank you so much!

huge thanks for all the free data to learn, I love it

[@aaronvallejo8220]

Excellent videos of the basics to permaculture design, farming and building! Thank you. A great service for humanity:)

High insulation is key for heating and cooling. Do not under estimate the power of insulation. The previous renters had 2 large air conditioning units placed in the windows burning all kinds of electricity trying to stay cool. I have installed 2 layers of R29 insulation over the R20 insulation in the attic. I also injection foamed the brick perimeter walls with R20. Then I started digging out the basement crawlspace, one bucket at a time, to have wiggle room to install R25 floor insulation. I now open all the old windows and flush the house with fresh and cool night time air and in the morning I close up the house keeping that coolness inside. The interior temperature starts at 68F and rises to 78F over the day when it is 95F outside requiring no air conditioning greatly reducing the electric load to stay comfortable. The more insulation the better.

I'm loving these videos! Thanks!

[@greenfingersclubmalta]

You have answered my window / building dilemma. Thank you so much! Currently taking your course :)

[@thebrothprof4692]

Really enjoying these videos. I'm interested in learning more about how to apply permaculture principals further in our daily lives. In particular, home cooking and reducing food waste.

Thank you 🙏

You just answered like 9 questions I had lol Thank you and greetings from Colombia

[@FaisalKhan-jg6kg]

Amazing series. Thanks

[@richlijacanacua]

Awesome!

[@allisondalton8715]

Fantastic video!

[@e11se]

I was looking for the russian oven and rocket mass heater links you pointed out.

[@jbiliHacker]

thanks sir!

[@joshuapersaud1659]

great videos

[@Bouchon211]

These videos are great he's an excellent teacher. Is coastal California considered temperate?

[@b_uppy]

Literal Vampire Potbellied Goblin
Yes

[@AlanKChan]

It's likely still desert. Lookup the hardiness zone maps for where you are in California.

[@lyonmandan]

I would be curious to hear what you would say about high deserts such as can be found in Eastern Oregon, Utah, Nevada, Eastern Washington, and Idaho.

[@ladyofthemasque]

"...when it can be cloudy for long periods of time..." (...stares brief but hard at the western Oregon climate in winter...) ((I'm in western WA, I *recognized* that pointed stare, lol!))

Don muy buenos los vídeos lastima que no tengan traducción en Español. Saludos desde Costa Rica

[@lindamorrison450]

Hola Luis. Si pinchas en el icono de subtítulos (para encenderlos) y luego pinchas en el icono de configuración, te saldrá un menú que, en la tercera línea, dice "subtítulos". Pincha en esta línea y te saldrá otro menú donde puedes leer "traducir automáticamente". Pincha en esa línea y hay un menú con muchos idiomas. Recorre la lista y pincha en "español".... y después de un momento los subtítulos aparecerán en español.

[@b_uppy]

The missing links...

[@11219tt]

What category is bag area California? Temperate and desert?

[@bneilful8851]

what's meant by "glazing"? like, window glazing? or something on the home's exterior?

[@danhle1032]

i'm curious as well...and which sides are supposed to have it and not have it

[@b_uppy]

Glazing refers to windows.

[@ricardoespinosa3636]

we provide a number of links ... ???

[@TheMightyYak]

Are these videos flipped? It’s the only way I could see it being possible to write that clearly backwards!

Build using materials that are local and minerals, carvings are best

Permaculture isn't just gardening, farming and ranching. Shelters should vary based on the situation

[@midasdesaedeleir4291]

is black shirt on black background permanent culture?

[@ayintabata8010]

Observe and you will find why..

[@justingrabert1256]

where's the wofati?
