Curtain walling is used just about everywhere else, no reason it can't succeed in housing too. There was a Guardian piece about a hempcrete house just yesterday, with the hempcrete held in frames made from the hemp stalks and resin made from agricultural waste. Started out as a barn, so there was a steel structural frame to be filled in.
The prospect of carbon negative building has to be a huge plus.
