The house under the garden – sustainable living as in Tolkien’s world

youDRESSED Redaktion

Residing not only in nature, but as a part of nature. Integrated into the surrounding landscape, in your own dome of grass, flowers, moss and even more nature.

The cosy mounds of earth may seem as if Mother Nature herself had formed them over millions of years in storms and thunder, at low tide and high tide and had let them grow together with the earth. But actually it takes no more than about three days, you and two other builders, some materials, a building instruction and a pinch of determination.

To ensure that the Green Magic Home lives up to its name, the surface is built with the most sustainable material on earth – the earth itself. Front garden was yesterday, today the garden is laid out over and to the side. There are no limits to the imagination. Simple lawns can be planted on the environmentally friendly igloos, colourful flowers grown or even useful fruit and vegetable beds laid out – or a palm tree, because why not?

If you don’t want to make the botanical domes your own home right away, you can also rent them in AirBnB-style. You can definitely get used to the idea of a holiday in harmony with nature.
