Hobbit Home



Can you imagine growing up in that place? These kids are psyched.

The point of this house was to build a very economical, self-built earth-sheltered house. They pulled it off for $5k. Check out this blog post to get a bit more info, and a few more pictures, about the project.



Enjoy seeing folks pull off weird and inspiring projects,

    Time only ends in 2012 if you're Incan. Are you? Well, are you? Yeah I didn't think so.


    And yeah, I always thought an underground house would be "cool", haha.
