Building With Whole Trees



The New York Times has a profile of architect Roald Gundersen who builds homes using entire trees instead of boards.

Tracy and I talk a lot about cobb homes and other eco-architecture styles (like this awesome "hobbit house")

The way Gundersen and his family live looks like the fantasy I used to have when I lived in Harlem.

We all know about the possibilities and realities of solar, wind, and to a lesser extent tidal and geothermal power, but I thought there might be another untapped and under-researched area: junk yards.
