straw hut
Primitive grass dwelling
A straw hut is a simple dwelling with walls or roof made from dried plant stalks—typically grasses, reeds, or grain stems.
The term evokes primitive or temporary shelter, often in tropical or rural settings: The village consisted of a dozen straw huts along the river.
Thatched roofs use similar materials but with more sophisticated construction.
