Ianto Evans is an applied ecologist, landscape architect, inventor, writer, and teacher,[1] known for his work building, writing and teaching about natural building and cob. Originally from Wales, Evans attended architecture school in the 1960s.[2] With Linda Smiley, Evans built what may have been the first cob house in North America after researching cob structures in the British Isles.[3] They moved into the cottage in 1989. They joined with Michael Smith to establish the Cob Cottage Company in 1993.[4] They also founded the North American School of Natural Building and innovated a distinctive "Oregon Cob" method, hosting numerous workshops on the technique.[3][5][6]

Evans was director of Aprovecho's Fava Bean Project, in Cottage Grove, Oregon, where he worked to adapt fava beans to American climates.[7] As a permaculturalist, he also developed a polyculture planting technique.[8] Evans also designed the rocket mass heater.
