.:: Earthships ::.





























Why everyone should live in an earthship..

1) The architecture is beautiful 
2) They're 50% made out of recycled materials 
3) They're auto-sustainable, which means.. no utility bills.. EVER! 

When I first entered the place I felt I was stepping into another dimension. The smell, the architecture, the surroundings, the peace. I loved that you could see the sun rising and the moon disappear while the sky orchestrated its majestic color symphony. I received my 30's there. We stayed 2 whole days inside this place.. I loved being naked feeling the sun's heat, then opening a door to feel the cold breeze.

As I mentioned before.. the earthships are built with 50% recycled materials. For this, they use old vehicle tires as insulators and glass bottles to let the sun come through. Water is gathered from rain & melted snow and it's used four times. 

I guess this kind of architecture is unlikely to catch on considering the type of society we live in.
