We are now involved in The Sarah Project on the Big Island of Hawaii. This is an enormous ‘Coming together of Community’ to build a little girl and her disabled Daddy a Superadobe home using cinder in place of earth and is now dubbed ‘Cindercrete’ here in Hawaii. We envision that this project will begin a landslide of interests as this affordable, almost indestructible style of building is desperately needed here in the Islands as well as the whole of the World. The project is unfolding Beautifully and Welcomes any offers of materials or assistance and on site building helpers may come and share in the fun and learn what this Superadobe hype is All About~

Super Adobe !~!~ What an amazing concept! Nader Khalili’s blend of Rumi & Architecture founded this low cost, environmentally sustainable building technology using our primary elements of Earth, Air, Fire & Water. Originally founded on the idea that these ‘materials of war’ (feed/grain bags & barbed wire & cement) can be found virtually anywhere on the globe. These Super ‘Domes’ can be made into an emergency shelter in the event the ‘mother storm’ is rolling in or afterward to provide shelter in refugee camps and finally can be constructed into Beautiful Low cost homes or villages for extreme permanency !!! How does it work? Harvest the earth up from under your feet and mix with a small amount of cement & water and pack into short polypropylene bags or the wondrous ‘long bag roll’ from Cal-Earth. Barbed wire acts as a dry mortar in between the bag rolls and they are coiled up in accordance to the measurement of the simple 2 compass system there by forming a Beautiful monolithic structures that can then be plastered inside and out with the same earth blend used to fill the bags. These structures can withstand extremely high winds, floods, fires & earthquakes! Absolutely Gorgeous !~

Lhasa Foundation is a Non-Profit International NGO (Non Governmental Organization) Founded on the principles that WE ARE ALL ONE. The Illusion of our separation, from each other and ALL Life on Earth has manifested an imbalance within Ourselves, Our Families and our Environments.
Through conversion to sustainable lifestyles and by eliminating our addiction to fossil fuels, we can greatly reduce our ‘Footprint’ on the Earth and have the opportunity to be a part of the Unification of our Global Community.
The gap between our 3rd and 1st world countries is staggering. If our current population of 6.8 billion indulged in a western lifestyle we would require 5-6 Extra planets solely for agriculture. Right Now the fastest growing movement on Earth is that of Non-Profits or NGO’s All working for the balancing of our Planet’s Communities and Environments !
Lhasa Foundation’s mission is to “Convert to & Create Sustainable EcoVillages Worldwide. Reconnecting us to a lifestyle that replenishes our Environments and places us back into smaller, closer family based ‘Green’ communities.
