Is that wood?

  It looks like it. Building houses from wood is not very common here in Holland, but i was told that many places with the right climat and soil build using wood. I even heard that you can kick through walls in many places in the states. Blows my mind, but appearantly its common.

    Interior walls for houses in the US are nearly universally made out of gypsum plaster attached to a wooden frame. The plaster is easy to kick or punch through (don't try this at home though, if you hit a stud, you will be unhappy). Exterior wall construction varies a lot more.

  Yes. Oriented Strand Board or Plywood boards with a softwood frame. Cross laminated timber is the latest thing in wood prefab technology. http://www.klhuk.com/home.aspx http://www.klhuk.com/home.aspx http://www.bre.co.uk/filelibrary/pdf/projects/low_impact_materials/IP17_11.pdf http://www.bre.co.uk/filelibrary/pdf/projects/low_impact_mat...
