I have posted a few concrete houses and lets just say they don't look normal. Cool but not traditional like the one in this New York Times article. "They are fire resistant and capable of withstanding 180- to 200-mile-an-hour winds." "But it is energy efficiency, not fears of high winds, that is the primary reason for concretes increase in popularity." "Houses with exterior insulating concrete form walls require 44 percent less energy to heat and 32 percent less energy to cool." "They also reduce sound to a whisper when used to frame interior as well as exterior walls." » original news
