Beautiful. Looks like an intelligent balance between natural materials and energy efficiency, simple clean detailing. I know that you have changed the moisture probe method (attaching the sensor to a timber block buried in the straw) - it would be good to show the revised method to prevent others emulating the steel bar shown... I am very jealous, a lovely project.
