  Concrete Documentary

We are very interested in concrete as we believe it has several things going for it over many other building materials, such as:

  • longevity
  • temperature modulation [stays cooler on warm days; warmer on cool days]
    fireproof
    sound-proof [well, keeps out much more sound than most other building materials]
  • resistance to pests such as termites
  • requires much less maintenance than most other building materials
  • fairly easy to clean
  • newer and more 'sustainable' concrete products are being developed
  • once built, they can be painted so that they look amazing - not like a boring ol' grey concrete structure
  • and others

We have fantasies about building some amazing concrete structures, as well as educating others about them. And, until one has lived in a concrete structure, they don't seem as wonderful. We [Willow and Allan] have both had that experience, and really enjoyed living in the concrete dome we lived in.

This interesting [if one is interested in such things as building with concrete] documentary on concrete is a great introduction and orientation to it, as well as showing some amazing new concrete mixtures/products being developed! It also shows and discusses some concrete buildings that have been standing for almost 2,000 years! We hope you watch it; it isn't as much of a yawner as it may seem! :)
