Welcome to Permies!  Houston does not have a lot of natural building.  A lot or reasons for that, but in regards to Cob, keep in mind that the soil in that area is mostly 'expansive soil'.  A cob house is going to move a lot, even on a good perimeter foundation.  

Austin has some cob projects.  There was/is even a venue (weddings/parties, etc...) with a cob hall to rent, although that has been a few years back.  I don't know if they are still in business.



Thanks jack, will research more on this. is it entire Houston and suburb or Houston + 50 or 100 miles radius?
