HUDSON VALLEY NATURAL BUILDING

Based in urban Albany, NY, Hudson Valley Natural Building (HVNB) is a community-based artisan company that specializes in straw bale, natural finishes, timber framing, and education. 

Our work has included custom renovation,  natural plaster and paint finished, straw bale construction, earthen floors, educational workshops, and community work.

HVNB uses natural building practices and materials as a sustainable alternative to conventional methods.

At HVNB we use local clay, sand, straw, recycled paper, salvaged wood, and other reclaimed construction waste to make our custom projects beautiful and sustainable.  As a result, our projects are completely non-toxic, safe, and inclusive of anyone who wants to join in the fun.

From earthen straw bale homes to garden walls, all of the work of HVNB is customized to reflect the needs of each client, community and project.
