'The use of compressed earth as a primary material is both innovative and sustainable, blending traditional techniques with modern design. The natural textures and organic forms create a striking aesthetic. The incorporation of thermal efficiency and climate regulation is a standout feature. The render could further enhance lighting effects to showcase the interplay of light and shadow more vividly."
