I see someone found Oblio13’s thread..... that’s the only one that came to mind when you posted your question. Unfortunately he hasn’t posted for years

Too bad most the pics are gone....I scrolled thru the whole thing, just reading OP's posts.

@aart he posted quite a few pictures about the whole process. Earthen cavern type space, I think he had some ‘windows’ for natural light. I was intrigued but then he stopped posting ....

I know, but those pics are now 'missing', nothing left but the RedX, removed from a third source server,
Actually looks like he had trouble with them being 'missing' while he we still building.

Maybe look into cob houses? Similar look & purpose, but easier to add windows and sealants to prevent mold etc.
