Again my muse;-) has done it again-inspiring me, that is, and sent me a link to a wonderful site: www.naturalhomes.org Loads of architectural ideas, and an inspiration for sure... seems I have to learn a thing or two about house building, too;-) for I WANT ONE!!!!*ggg*. It is certainly awe-ispiring, and more so, I suspect there´s the birth of a whole new architectural era and a whole new era of arts and crafts on the way. remember: The art nouveau movement started in a similar way... So I guess, in the times to come, this photo of two greasy-haired hippies;-) sitting on a roof will get a whole new meaning... These lines are a big inspiration to me, not only when house building is concerned, and I can´t wait to get into my shop again, to let some ideas come to life...;-). ... ... All in all, it is more and more that I get the impression that soemthing in our society is about to change- and for one, it might even be a change to the better, not for worse. More and more people live a peaceful and ecologically sensitive revolution, or even better, evolution of the current state of things. And it´s not all about eating granola dishes the woodland birds would spite at, but partly even driven by common sense. It feels good.
The original design from Gernot Minke was planned for Spain - as a coffee shop... now it is going to be our architectural office and seminar...
Just north of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, Tim Sullivan has built Timmyland, inspired by the work of Antoni Gaudí in Barcelona, Spain. What started as a sleeping porch and a storage room has evolved into a rambling, otherworldly folly that has to be seen to be believed.

To know a space, dance it. Roll on its ground, do a head stand against its walls, climb into its windows sills. I did this on my second to last night at the Lama Foundation, outside of Taos, New M…
A little while ago I moved to Montezuma, a charming hippie-surf-town in Costa Rica. And I decided to build a dome house. But not just a regular dome.
Dom Kopułato Moja odpowiedź na Twoje poszukiwania idealnego domu. Po zrealizowaniu projektu domu tradycyjnego, właściciele większość czasu poświęcali na to, aby ten dom utrzymać.Mieli do wykonania dziesiątki rzeczy, zamiast spędzać wolny czas z rodziną.

Called the "Eye of the Storm", the South Carolina beach house is one of a growing trend of "hurricane-proof" domes - and it's for sale.
♫ Tame Impala- Lost in Yesterday ♫ Hey guys! Last weekend I went back to Cal Earth Institute to check out the earth domes, I absolutely LOVE this place! I was definitely overdue for a trip out to the desert to check out these amazing domes! If you guys remember the last time I was here was around spring 18 here is the last post :) This time I took my friend Jackie to check them out and we even got to shoot some pieces from her new clothing line that will be launching soon sometime this year! It was the perfect place to shoot her pieces, the aesthetic and earth-toned pieces blended perfectly with the domes. Scroll down for more pics ;) Wearing: OddBird set, Gigi Pip hat, Clarks booties Lovely set from my friend Jacqueline's collection x StephC

Last Summer (09), while traveling from Denmark to our next workshop in Slovakia, we were given a tornado-like tour of the well-known German ecovillage, Sieben Linden that is located in the Altmark region of former East Germany. We were escorted/driven there by German architect Dirk Scharmer, who has designed numerous straw bale buildings, as well as some of the ecovillage buildings. Dirk took time from a busy work schedule to give us a tour of the site along with Martin Stengel, one of the founding members of the community. An overnight’s stay was much too short a time to absorb all that we saw as well as remember the names of the many people we met. Despite the blur-like quality of our experience there, there was much to remember, in particular, some of the most impressive and well-built straw bale buildings we encountered on our trip. I won’t be much help when it comes to telling you some of the essential information about Sieben Linden [...]
