What is "daub"?

Daub is a mixture of materials, such as clay, mud, or straw, used in construction to coat walls or to create a plaster-like surface. It is often applied in layers to provide insulation and weatherproofing, commonly found in traditional building methods. Daub is typically used in combination with a framework of wattle or timber, providing both structural support and a finished surface. This technique has been used for centuries in various cultures, and while it may not be as common in modern construction, it is still appreciated for its natural appearance and environmental benefits.
