The kilns sit in a grain bin overlooking an old oak forest.

efficient and ecological building methods, including structural insulated
panels, Core-ten steel siding, geothermal heating/cooling, and radiant
floor heat.
Our new house and studio are located on 14 acres in Eureka Township, Minnesota, just 30 miles south of downtown Minneapolis. We began planning in early 2002, broke ground in fall of 2003, and hope for completion in 2005.
In the meantime, here are some shots of the house as it looks this fall.
The view from our living room window is spectacular.

This siding is designed to rust back to a bright orange, eventually turning
to a rich mahogany patina. The rust seals the steel and protects it from
corrosion.
