Natural temperature regulation keeps your space cool in summer and warm in winter, reducing energy costs by up to 40% while creating a healthier living environment.
Beautiful, natural earth tones with distinctive layering create unique architectural statements that connect your building to its environment with unmatched character.
Beautiful, energy-efficient homes with natural temperature regulation and unique aesthetic appeal.
Distinctive commercial buildings that stand out while reducing operational energy costs.
Sustainable tourism facilities that blend with the natural environment while providing comfort in all seasons.
Serene, quiet spaces with excellent acoustics and a natural connection to earth that enhances spiritual experience.
Healthy learning environments with natural temperature control, superior air quality, and reduced operational costs.
Statement interior or exterior walls that add character and natural beauty to existing structures.
Durable outdoor elements like retaining walls, planters, and architectural features.
We combine ancient rammed earth wisdom with 21st-century sustainable technology to create Nigeria's most innovative housing solutions:
Our homes feature built-in solar panel roofing that provides 80% energy autonomy, seamlessly integrated into the rammed earth design for modern energy needs.
Advanced rainwater harvesting captures 90% of annual rainfall, with filtration systems that provide clean water while reducing municipal dependency.
We plant fast-growing bamboo around each home to create natural shading that reduces cooling needs by 40%, while sequestering 2x more CO₂ than typical trees.
Our rammed earth homes seamlessly integrate cutting-edge technology with traditional wisdom, creating living spaces that are both sustainable and intelligently responsive to your needs:
At Tubali Earthworks, we believe a home should grow from its garden, not the garden from the home. Each residence integrates with its natural surroundings through:
Artificial streams and waterfalls circle around the homes, providing both the psychological benefits of flowing water sounds and passive cooling through evaporation. Each water feature is powered by dedicated solar micro-systems and constructed using the site's excavated earth.
Mezzanine levels and clerestory windows maximize natural light while maintaining thermal efficiency. Exposed wooden beams and tongue-and-groove ceilings bring natural elements indoors, creating harmony between the structure and its environment.
Koi ponds with indigenous aquatic plants create living ecosystems that bring movement, color, and the zen-like quality of observing nature's patterns. These features become natural focal points that connect inhabitants to daily natural rhythms.
Discover how ancient building wisdom meets modern innovation in our Nigerian context.
Rammed earth is a precisely controlled mixture of gravel, clay, sand, and sometimes 5% cement or lime which is carefully proportioned, mixed to the correct moisture content, and then machine-compacted in removable formwork to yield a dense, hard, stone-like wall.
Our walls are engineered for West Africa's conditions:
Besides their striking beauty and characteristic layered appearance, rammed earth walls have outstanding thermal and acoustic benefits. They have an ideal thermal mass that helps regulate indoor temperatures, keeping buildings cool during hot days and warm during cooler nights. This creates a comfortable living environment year-round while reducing energy costs.
Additional benefits include:
Health benefits of rammed earth construction:
Our 3-layer protection system:
Absolutely. Our walls accept:
Glass facades
Premium tiles
Wood cladding
No, quite the opposite. Rammed earth walls have excellent sound-absorbing characteristics and can be built to have very high sound attenuation which inhibits noise transfer between rooms extremely effectively. The density of rammed earth walls creates a peaceful, quiet indoor environment that most visitors immediately notice and appreciate.
While initial construction costs may be comparable to or slightly higher than conventional building methods, rammed earth provides significant long-term savings through energy efficiency, durability, and minimal maintenance requirements. The actual cost varies based on project specifications, design complexity, and site conditions. We provide detailed cost analysis during the consultation phase of each project.
Project timelines depend on size, complexity, and specific requirements. While the wall construction process itself is efficient, proper planning and preparation are essential. Generally, rammed earth walls can be constructed faster than traditional masonry once the formwork is in place. During your consultation, we can provide a more accurate timeline based on your specific project needs.
