Sage Stoneman and Friends

About a decade ago, I discovered natural building as a new medium for artistic expression. After apprenticing with Sun Ray Kelley, I began designing and building cob homes for a living. I believe that “home” is a feeling that can be embodied in the structures we live in. A feeling that every human deserves as a birth right.

For me, home is a feeling of childlike wonder which connects me to all of life, and a safe space to be when I need to retreat from the overwhelm of this world and connect with my innermost being.

I am passionate about natural building as a way of asking “Who am i?

What does home feel like?

How is this feeing unique to me?

How does it unite me with all of humanity?

How can I work with this earth to create a physical structure which embodies this feeling through reverence and humble curiosity?”

In this way, natural building has become more than an artistic medium for me. It is a form of therapy and a modality of self-healing. I want to share this experience with you, and help as many humans as possible to have a physical home, where they can truly feel at home.
