    House with a Doma

    A home with a traditional earthen floor (doma) creates a versatile transition zone between indoor and outdoor living. Linking the entryway directly to gardens or garages makes moving bikes and outdoor gear easy while providing an ideal hobby workshop. Integrated benches and storage simplify shoe changes and organization. Connecting the doma to living or kitchen areas creates a unique gathering place. Durable tile, mortar, or exposed-aggregate finishes add practical durability and visual charm. We present doma homes that welcome active daily pursuits.
