And so to answer the inevitable questions:
  • Yes, it's real.
  • Yes, - it is 'Art'.
  • No, you can't buy one, - you have to make your own.
  • You just pedal it. Doy!
  • No, it would not be better with an engine.
  • Well, your mum stayed over and she didn't complain.

I have nothing more to say but; - cars and mortgages are now officially for suckers and bogans.
 Get off the petrol, or get off the planet!
Kapeesh?

.: How to build a House with a Reciprocal Roof

         


It looks like a still from 'Lord of the Rings' but it's not, it's a real home, in Wales.
This incredible hobbit-like house was handmade by a man named Simon Dale.

He'll even tell you how to do it on his website and he makes it sound fun and easy;
"The house was built with maximum regard for the environment and by reciprocation gives us a unique opportunity to live close to nature. Being your own (have a go) architect is a lot of fun and allows you to create and enjoy something which is part of yourself and the land rather than, at worst, a mass produced box designed for maximum profit and convenience of the construction industry. Building from natural materials does away with producers profits and the cocktail of carcinogenic poisons that fill most modern buildings."
'I am not a builder or carpenter, my experience is only having a go at one similar house 2yrs before and a bit of mucking around inbetween. This kind of building is accessible to anyone. My main relevant skills were being able bodied, having self belief and perseverence and a mate or two to give a lift now and again."
