2. Cool!!

But nary a hint of how much it costs. And after the 2 truckloads come, am I expected to build it myself?

Thanks

3. I think it's like the log-home kits

They deliver it and then you have to contract to build it.. But it looks pretty simple :)

It looks like a great place to have for the "off-the-grid" folks :)

4. Very nice! For warm climates, anyway

Don't think I'd want it in Wisconsin...

Reminds me of the homes in Hawaii (the only warm clime I've lived in, so probably california and mexico etc. have similar architecture) that often had some part of the house that wasn't really inside, and wasn't really outside, but a nice mix of the two.

I love the air flow patterns of this house, and the way it keeps one side completely open. Would help force a person to not own more crap than he/she needed, too!
