Woodland Home, Hobbit Style

Out of a desire to reconnect with nature the Dales built their woodland home in Wales. With no architectural experience Simon Dale built this with his father-in-law and a few friends in a matter of 4 months. They used all natural materials and built it to have as low of an environmental impact as possible. Check out their website for pics of the family… no they aren’t hobbits.More Info

These are so great! I want to live in the one in Cavallo, it’s so beautiful. Mediterranean style is definitely one of the most desirable - where’s the realtor for these places?.

I’m pretty sure the top photo is actually an art installation from New Harmony, Indiana. Unfortunately, it burned to the ground about a year or two ago. I don’t have the artist’s name, but I could get for you if you wish.

Thanks for including Falling Water. It’s nice to be reminded that being green isn’t a new idea!
