First Martian buildings for Space 1889 & VBCOS.Built from cork floor tiles to keep it cheap.I want to keep this project small and not get carried away as I've done with AVBCW.
The idea is in rural parts local 'light' clays are used to make very simple constructions.Small doors to reduce martian dust entering.No windows.On good days a roof hatch to let out excess heat.For larger (more wealthy) buildings the same format is used but windows with shutters nearly always facing the weakest wind direction.The only windows are always on these sides.Wood is in short supply in some areas so tends to be restricted to larger wealthier buildings.
