    I’m curious how they plan to keep the bottles from breaking down in the sunlight. Plastic becomes brittle when exposed to sun for too long, and I’m not sure the exposed bottle ends are protected well enough.

      Seems like they’re covered with the mortar “While the “bottle brick” technology might have caught on in Nigeria, it was initially tried in India, South America, and Central America close to a decade ago. It is a cost-effective and eco-friendly option compared with traditional brick homes, which makes it accessible to many.”
