I love the look of this "gnome-style" home. These structures are perfect for sustainable living.

"Because creating an Earthship — or any innovative home designed specifically for the homesite — is a labor-intensive process, Mike kept the mechanics simple. Anyone can quickly learn to build a wall from concrete and tin cans or bottles. He invented a method of packing sand inside stacks of used tires that creates massive, stable interior walls. You can master the process in a few hours. Once they’re stuccoed they have a beautiful natural shape and they store a lot of solar energy."

Thanks Daphna!

Couldn't agree with ya any more Miss Marion, they are nice and unique looking and appear to be very practical.

Where's the ladder, hammer and nails, let's get to constructing...
