    I wonder if he had the same hatred for cast-in-place concrete.

    I don’t like concrete blocks, nor bricks, when cast-in-place concrete is an option.

    If I could afford it, I’d build my house with cast-in-place concrete walls and floors, with the interior walls finished with wood studs and drywall. The problem is both cost, and finding an experienced crew to do the work. Some countries just don’t have contractors who know how to do it, and will only build concrete block walls.

      Monolithic dome house! Been a fantasy of mine since college. Might be difficult to hang pictures on the walls, though.
