ArchitectureWeek Description
Sequel to the original Shelter, a continuing discovery of magnificent and unusual hand-built houses: a Japanese-style stilt house accessible only by a cable across a river; a stone house in a South African valley whose roof serves as a baboon trampoline; multi-level treehouses on the South China Sea; and a bottle house in the Nevada desert. Also features innovative architectural styles and natural building materials that have gained popularity in the last two decades: cob, papercrete, bamboo, adobe, strawbale, timber framing, and earthbags.
