ALTERNATIVE, CLIMATE-SMART consulting

Root Down Design’s passion for architecture & building goes beyond the drafting board, and out into the hands of the community. RDD has designed and overseen the construction of several rammed earth homes in the Carolinas and has been a key consultant for those looking to build with Earth, Tiny Homes, Hempcrete, and more! 

CARBON SEQUESTERING ARCHITECTURE

Looking for an alternative construction method that will help negate your carbon footprint? Root Down Designs is one of the few licensed firms in the Carolinas that has designed homes using earthen materials such as Rammed Earth, Cob, and Hempcrete.
