Living Like A Hobbit In An Earth House
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- Have you ever wanted to live like a hobbit? This vision was made reality by Swiss architect Peter Vetsch when he designed his earth houses. These eye-catching houses are integrated into the natural landscape and although they are reminiscent of "hobbit-holes," they are incredibly stylish. Beyond that, earth houses are designed to help protect against natural disasters. Instead of blocking land areas so that the chances of flooding during heavy rainfall increase, they help prevent that from happening. Plus, they're an architectural experience. Who hasn't wanted to live in a house with curved walls?

I could see a 3-D printer solution to building these. The rebar poses a challenge, but not an insurmountable one.

Oh, i'd love to live in a house like that....

Am doing this all the time. Greatfullnes Nd Gratitude
Sehr schon aus schweiz 🇨🇭kommen auch wo gröne feld haben wirr.
Vielen danke DW.
I love the design, but concrete and polyurethene shouldn't be used in their construction. It can however be build from wood, haybales, and clay. It's been done in Wales for a many centuries, and the practice has moved to Denmark in newer times. My wife and I plan to build a home like that.
I think you have incredible creative designs and I love the flow you create.
I love the harmony and simplicity and melding the home with the earth. Its a win win with a happy grin!
Thanks for sharing . I would love to have a home like this so will have to find out more about it and see if it could happen here in Central B.C.Canada
Thank you so much!
Nothing about the systems in the house?
Earth homes in South West USA, have back walls (north walls) that retain heat, recycle waste water to grow plants, collect rain water, use solar for lighting and cooking. Do these houses have similar systems ?
@Ring Dave This link might be interesting: bit.ly/3zD763O 😚
My dream city!
Amazing 🤩
We'd love to have an earth house, but curved shapes simply do not speak well to us. We still prefer sharp edges.
ich mag es auch sehr , top
nice!
the face in the kitchen! omgggg
Would a house like this be safe in a tornado such as the recent ones in Kentucky, USA?
Or, earthquake prone regions?
@sassy tbc Good question. Well they at least seem to have quite stable statics.
More than likely as it's made of concrete not wooden panels. Also, having those curvy shapes it makes it quite aerodynamic against air currents.
There would have to be an area built in the home without windows (to prevent glass shattering) but, otherwise, I believe an underground home may be similar to a bunker or basement
Wonderful

Interesting architectural concept! However, if I was taking a quiz on an architectural personality style , this house would not fit.
average first Minecraft house
"The Crimean peninsula" is part of Ukraine, you didn't specify what parts of Germany and Switzerland the houses were built in. This is incorrect, and somewhat even supports Russian occupation.
I think they just wanted to avoid controversy, which apparently you're very keen to stir. Ffs, it's not a political statement, it's a video about houses, just chill...
Cool looking, but the rounded stuff is totally unpractical. Just look at the kitchen. You won't fit any standard components/furniture in there!
@Christooh That problem can certainly be solved creatively, don't you think?🔧📐📏
It must work somehow as this guy has been living in one for over thirty years.
Minds that resist change are everywhere, unfortunately!
@@sassytbc7923 sure, but I guess this was a custom design. See the other furniture as well. Just makes things more expensive and you are losing space with all the round things
Im shure you can make the inside angular, but you will have mess space
The Crimean Peninsula?? Of course this had to be a German channel... CRIMEA IS UKRAINE!!!!
No thank you. Better design maybe.
is there some reason the narrator speaks like a kindergarten teacher? this is very annoying.
That's his Swyzyerduesh Madam
Evelyn change your channel
Simple
@Evelyn Konjack You did not have a good Kindergarten Teacher? 😉😚
@@dweuromaxx hahaha great reply

Luv luv you DW Heidi
@@dweuromaxx well, yes, i did have excellent teachers, thank you for asking! that was 60 years ago for kindergarten, and they spoke like grown ups and expected us to also. good content, so no, heidi, i wont just run away. i asked a question, why are so many commentators speaking with a sing song baby talk cadence? i noticed it a few years ago here in u.s., and just "changed the channel" (in fact got rid of tv altogether like so many others here have). Now, the you tube presenters are beginning to talk that way, i guess i am the only one here who notices? Perhaps i am just too many years out of kindergarten.
So I am trying to understand as it has an earth grass roof and a metal mesh structure what prevents people standing on the roof from being struck by lightening?
During thunderstorms you should not stand on any roofs at all, don't you think?
@@dweuromaxx true but most roofs don't have grass banks leading up them, I'm thinking more of livestock grazing
...?
