maggieblueberry: Man builds low-impact woodland hobbit house for under $5000.
Simon Dale’s home is a woodland construction that took just four months to build and the low-impact, environmentally-friendly home now allows his family to live close to nature.
The home, built with the help of his father-in-law and volunteers, is dug into the hillside for low-visual impact and shelter from the elements. The framework is made of spare oak fallen from nearby woodland. The reciprocal roofing makes the home safe and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. The walls and flooring are insulated with straw bales to keep the Welsh winter elements at bay and the roof was made with mud and then turf finish with a plastic sheeting base.
