A Residential Renaissance

The latest Residential Renaissance cob structure.

Local Crawford resident Clare Adams continues work on the second cob structure on their property. The first building was a small tool shed/pump house with a loft, but this time around Clare, helped by her 3 year old son Jack, is building a two storey house that will have roughly 1,200 square feet of living space.

Jack Adams helping his mom.

With two kids, Jack (3 years old) and Esme (1 year old), Clare has to try and find time when one or both of the children are taking a nap to work on the structure, so naturally the building process is a slow one this time around. In the past, Clare also constructed a cob wedding chapel for a friend of hers in north Georgia, and has been featured in several local Georgia papers. Built by hand.

She and her husband, Josh, have started a company called Residential Renaissance, and together they offer cob construction (and training), general carpentry, renovations and conversions, and numerous other services. Josh also does occasional tree work on the side. If you would like to contact them and get a quote for a job, they can be reached at (706) 206-0546. Just ask for Josh Adams

Hands on construction.
