    This looks like the US. For someone from outside the US, this might be very interesting, because it’s very different than what you might see in other countries, especially in Europe, where everything is brick and mortar inside and out.

      Hmm, must be different from region to region within Europe. Wood is a popular building material in Finland, at least.

        Yes, there are areas of Europe where wood is the main building material, like in Finland and Norway, because wood is so abundant. Same in northern Sweden. In southern Sweden, it’s mostly brick and mortar.

      Odd, never knew that homes in europe were built the way they are. Just did some reading about it and it’s vastly different to here in Australia where we do it like this photo - concrete slab then build a frame of the house from wood/steel, do all the plumbing/wiring/etc, then either brick or wood around the frame.
