I actually live in a stawbale house. It looks completely normal, except for 2' thick external walls and the stained concrete floors. I absolutely love it.

My dad/brother built it. One practical piece of advice, keep any walls that you are going to hang cabinets on standard framing walls. This will save you an huge amount of time and effort to get them to hang properly and look good. Also be careful how /where you run your water pipes. Straw (and probably other materials) really don't like water if you get a leak.
