We absolutely loved visiting Amy's Earthship home! Her passion for Earthship design radiates from her and she is an absolute wealth of knowledge. Earthships have been a fascination of mine ever since watching the film Garbage Warrior and since then I have always ventured to incorporate as many of these design principles into my own projects as possible. This is a shining example of a home which is completely self-sufficient, radically sustainable and which has a positive impact on the world around it. We hope you enjoy the tour!
Bryce and Rasa, once again, thank you for finding Amy and bringing her fascinating story to us. She and her build radiate warmth. I love the colors she chose for her solid walls and how they accent those amazing bottle walls. I adore the earthsip movement. It's been at least 10 yr, quite possibly more since I've known about them and have coveted one ever since. Using TRASH to make a home, and other things has been my passion for a long time. It's really hard to get people to understand and buy into the concept. To them, trash is to be discarded. Amy is so fortunate to have a community of such awesome friends who understood and were totally on board to help her action her lovely dream. That bench top is sooo stunning. I love❤ the color and character it lends to the home as well as the coffee table her friend gifted her with for the lounge. Bravo to her and all her friends. Bryce and Rasa I think it would be lovely to include whatever adventures Amy has or had with her cute little home on wheels/travel trailer that I saw. TFS ❤❤
Wow! Stunning accomplishment, Amy! Your home is *positively* delightful , but the use of otherwise waste resources is inspired!!!! Truly! 🙃😁 Cool too! For you and the puds. ❤ Wonderful wee peek into another person’s joy, dear Bryce and Rasa. Thank you 🇦🇺from your Canadian 🇨🇦friends. Cheers'
"He wanted the tree to be together." (coffee table, etc.) That was one of the loveliest things I have heard in my life, and I am sixty-three. Thanks Bryce, Rasa, Amy, and all of the people who helped. However, shout out to the gifter of the tree. Beautiful Human.
When someone says “you will live alone with cats” as a fear mongering, they should be made to sit and watch this video 10x as rehab. Anyway, this video is inspiring in more ways than one. Everyone should have access to a life where they can be close to nature and their inner world, experience self love and gratitude, and all around live a life cradled in the beauty and mystery of earth. This is what we are here for, this is home. In fact, this is not just a home, this is a vision for what a fulfilling human life looks like. She has a beautiful sustainable home, an amazing community of support and friends and people who inspire each other, wonderful furry companions who love her company, a purpose in life and a sense of making a difference by the way she embodies that purpose. Truly one of the most remarkable projects to ever land on this page.
Not anywhere. High buildings could block out the required sunlight... Plus, as much as I love the corridor glasshouse hybrid, I do have some security concerns...
@@edi9892 Of course, not anywhere. Every single idea on earth has at least one issue; it doesn’t mean it’s a bad idea. The enemy of the good is the perfect. 😉
@basicallyno1722 where I live, old buildings have spear fences and if not, the basement and ground level windows are covered with wrought iron fences... Slightly younger houses have still windows made of multiple panels, thus, you'd still need to do a LOT more damage to break through a window... Smaller windows are also easier to reinforce or board up.
What an amazing house, built through the dedication, care, and camaraderie of an amazing soul! Using resin on the bottles to get the colors she wanted was genius, and much easier than trying to source bottles of the sizes and colors she wanted. I'm so glad her cats are happy, too!
I know, right? I had considered coloring the bottles but colored resin was indeed genius. I can imagine earthship builders all over the world throwing their heads back and laughing.
Her passion for this house is patent. She is quite knowledgeable about all the aspects of this eco-friendly construction! I want to thank Rasa for the filmography and editing. The spoken and visual elements were mixed flawlessly with excellent segue. Thank you Rasa and Bryce for documenting these living options and their construction ins and outs. 🙏
This had me tearing up towards the end. Amy's grateful nature and the amount of people that so graciously helped, made me emotional. What a testament to the kind of person she is. Such a beautiful community.
Wow! Amy’s Earthship home is absolutely stunning! It’s so warm, cosy and inviting! Made with love and well thought out in its planning. Congratulations Amy! Many more homes would benefit from this way of building.
It's always nice to hear from someone who is passionate about their subject matter, and Earthship Amy did not disappoint! The home itself is beautiful to see, and has so much going for it. May she enjoy that home for the rest of her life!
That is the first new Earthship video I have seen in a very long time. It is a very beautiful Home. I noticed when she was talking about the wood stove, she said she never had a need to use it, those houses are so efficient you don't need heat to stay warm in the winter.
@@anio1349 South Australia (the state where Amy lives) is our driest part of Australia and the urban parts have a Mediterranean-type climate. It can get really hot in Summer - average peak around 30 degrees celsius - and mild in WInter - average lows around 7 celsius (44.6 F)
@@anio1349 Heating likely wouldn't be an issue, as a heat pump could be used to pull more heat from the Earth (can provide 4x the heat for energy used). Typically earth homes are located in a dryer climate, not sure how would be adopted to a climate with more seasonal moisture. In US, most are located in Arizona, or New Mexico. This is a good question.
@@anio1349there are a few videos of earthships in the canadian prairies, where it gets cold in winter. They need a heater to stay warm. They always minimize it, saying they need to heat only ‘a little’, but they DO need a heater, which kinda goes against the original idea of the eartship as a selfregulating machine where the temp always stays stable and warm enough.
@@donaldvanvliet9039the high mass in the home should be close to the temperature of the earth under the home. The earth under the home should be a combination of the home temperature and the average outside air temperature for the year.
Spectacular personality and spectacular Earthship home. I also love her sense of gratitude for her friends and all the people who helped her along her path. Who wouldn't want to be friend to Amy--what a luv!
This is totally awesome and put a smile on my face - glad she is off the grid and doesn't have to wait for utilities to be re-connected if the power goes out! What an inspiration for the rest of us - well done Amy and crew!!! Merry Christmas from new zealand!
Certainly a beautiful efficient home. Amy is not only extremely capable and knowledgeable about all aspects of her building project but is also very eloquent - she clearly explained the various aspects of the build.
Always found earth ships fascinating. I love the communal building so often associated with them too. I'll go put the coffee on. Hope you are both well and thank you for another video!!
Me too! Did you see the film Garbage Warrior? If you're interested in Earthship design it's worth watching to find out more about the story of how they came to be and Michael Reynolds' journey. It was definitely one of the films that really opened up my ideas about architecture and how our created spaces can enhance our lives. We are both well! Just got back home to NZ for Christmas. I hope you and yours awe all well too! Enjoy your coffee and the new episode! ☕
Wow! This is absolutely amazing! Some of the earthships I've seen have been aesthetically pretty average, but this one's gorgeous! What an awesome job Amy and all her helpers have done on her house... she should be soo proud of herself! I'd love an earthship like hers! xxoo
I absolutely love her Earthship design!! It’s beautiful and functional! The thing I love most about Earthships is that you take care of the home and it takes care of you!! Cheers
Amy what a gorgeous soul you are. No wonder you have so many friends because you are such a beautiful lady. It's so gorgeous. Love the bottle designs. Love your sweet cats. You must be so proud. Love your earth ship and your attitude. Thank you for sharing. Thanks Bryce and Rasa you are both amazing as are all your guests. Warmest regards Charlotte
I LOVE this Earthship! It has more light and sunshine that any other earthship I've seen, and the layout speaks of her intentional designing. What a beautiful home. Way to go, Amy!
Stunning place. Loved the description and in-progress photos of the Earthship being built. And a special shout-out to the excellent feline co-stars, demonstrating what a great home this is for all!
I've never heard of earthships before but I am in love! This house is absolutely stunning, the lovely greenhouse front and the cosy living area at the back are just the most perfect thing.
I LOVED this video! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Absolutely wonderful! I have been in love with earth ships for a few years. They never disappoint and Amy did a fabulous job with hers. So blessed and protected on her journey. She’s a gem! Listening to her story, working with children and the friends or strangers that came in to offer help. Perfect alignment! Bravo! This was absolutely beautiful! ❤️
Love this gals speech. her inflection while speaking is awesome - mostly ends with an upward inflection. I don’t know what to say other than she is an amazing gal with an amazing dialect which is rare because she ends her sentences with an upward pitch which is weird & sweet.
Love the Earth ship,, the hallway, the plants and 🐈 s the rest spots and solar system the bottle s art great work and it all came together with the help of the people, like god was blessing the whole way through,, good luck 👍 thanks for the tour, and bless you 🙏✨🕊️
Such a beautiful home and love the Earthship construction. I visited Taos, NM in 1997 and saw first hand the Earthship community north of Taos~Amy is Lovely and love her high energy~💚💛💗
A simply gorgeous E🌍rth Ship! I love the bottles with their colors, designs, and etched words, the beautiful wood features, the windows and solarium hallway. Just takes my breath away!
Wow what a beautiful and smart home Amy has created. I love that it was a community project and that it also taught others how to build earthships. An earthship is my dream home. Well done! Fantastic video!
Used to live around the corner from Amy when she started. Met her a couple times. Remember everyone camping down the road, so good to see it finished, looks amazing.
Earthships have been my favorite type of non-traditional building for several years. Awesome seeing this great example! Amy is very knowledgeable and passionate about Earthships! That solar panel system is massive!!
I loved the way Amy explained how the earthship worked, how it was built and the idea behind features. It was fantastic! Great video Bryce (and people behind the camera).
I agree. Amy is very articulate & knowledgeable. She explained everything very well. What an amazing collaboration with other advocates. The earth ship home is such an excellent use of discarded materials. 😮 Amazing.
You said it Bryce,” wow! What a space she has made.” I think that this is my favorite of all time. Thank you and Rasa for continuing to bring us such beautiful and inspiring homes.
I do dream of having this level of wealth one day. Such an organic house built by love, nice new appliances, a luxurious RV, pets, a supportive community, etc. She is so very lucky.
This is BY FAR the MOST AWESOME Earthship Home I have ever seen, as far as being closest to what I would personally want in a home, functionality, design, & even a lot of her decorating. LOVE IT!!
My dream is still to build an earthship style house. A lot of details that I would do differently (rammed earth instead of tire walls, composting toilets, two story house, a rocket mass heater tied into in-floor radiant heating, solar water heaters...) but it will utilize a lot of the basic principles (water collection and recycling, thermal mass, solar heating, earth berm, cooling tubes...)
Wow, this blew me away...Your home is self-sufficient and beautiful 😍..... your caring for the environment is most amazing. Looking at your home from the outside you wouldn't think it is not a regular home...Your kitties are gorgeous 😍...I see you have a covered garage and a camper for those adventures....are you going to be doing landscaping in the front of your home...Lots of luck
Wow, this is The Most Beautiful earthship home I have ever seen !! I admit, I never thought they were attractive, until now, just sufficient. It is spacious, I like the decor. Ooh la la that bathtub ! The garden is lovely, to wake up every morning looking at that banana tree is a bonus. You are right, you were blessed to have such good friends to help you build this beauty. To donate their time and the beautiful types of wood. You have everything you need in a home, enjoy !!
She is truly blessed , what a lovely earthship she has created and have the most wonderful friends and all the helpful , kind people she has met . I hope I will have this one day soon.. manifesting this and good kind friends too..
I love earthships so much. Mike Reynolds is truly a visionary. I know in Australia there have been a lot of issues around council approvals and other regulations for earthships so it is wonderful to see it can be done. I would love to see more of these.
The huge happiness and satisfaction with home that the house designer/dwellers on this channel have for their homes -- whether tiny or alternative -- is the major common denominator.
Pam here….LOVE THIS. So many advantages of a bermed or earth ship, the moderation of temps, the quietness and solid feeling the home gives. I love the greenhouse hallway of the front, so many do not have that and regulating the heat, light into home is more difficult. Makes me want to scavenge the landfills for tires and glass. ❤😂😂❤❤
I've never seen an earthship in this type of location before. It's STUNNING! Not just an earthship but a homeship too, a beautiful, cosy, magnificent, friendly house full of love, cats and friends. It's magnificent 😍 😍 😍
So much to love about this video Bryce. Loved the home and loved her. Such great energy and positivism. It was interesting to hear about her journey of how she came to build an earthship home. All because she was volunteering in Nicaragua where she wound up helping to build a school there using this process. And who knew there was a class/seminar one could take to learn more about it as she did when she traveled to Taos, NM and then the serendipity of having an earthship guru right in her area where she was able to work on another monthlong project. Pretty amazing journey.
What a great home for Amy😊 It’s perfect!! I love everything about it, and Amy is such a great conversationist! I’d LOVE to spend a day with Amy, I could listen to her stories all day god love her😍 She is so informative! I wonder what area she lives?🤔 LOVE how she describes the house giving her a big warm hug on a cool day, she’s so lovely and sweet!😍💗🌻💐
I'm speechless!! This huge-tiny earthship is one of the most beautiful houses seen so far. The passion and commitment that went into the construction of this masterpiece is commendable! A spectacular project. Thanks Bryce and Rasa. I hope that this year for Christmas greetings many inhabitants of the Tiny Houses will record a greeting video, so I can see everyone together with pleasure. A big hug from Livorno, Tuscany, Italy and I hope that soon I will be able to realize my dream of having a Tiny House and communicate it to you!! Happy Holidays to you and your families.
Thank you for sharing these Videos. I have learned of Earthships back in 2015 when I accidentally drove by the Greater World communiy near Taos. I was intrigued by the ideas of Michael Reynolds! Owning a conventional "stick house" in rural New Mexico, I started to add Earthship principles to my home, talking PV, solar thermal hot water, rainwater catchment, a south-facing Greenhouse Add-On with thermal mass walls and floors, gray-water recycling through planters and a South facing tire wall (this one would need some explanation... HA!). I am getting close to become energy-neutral including driving electric. My Goal: Less than 30 wood stove firing days per year (at 6000+ feet elevation), no more fruit and veggies from the super-market, no more dependencies on local infrastructures (meaning: electric grid outages pass me without me noticing), always a comfortable home to be in. Retro-fitting an existing conventional US-type stick house is hard, but I am almost there!
Love the amount of big drawers in the kitchen. The very best way of storing things. Pity an earthship is so labour intensive, as it seems to be the best type of housebuild, and the healthiest to live in.
The result is so amazing. Imagine waking up with that view from your bedroom, banana tree and all that greens. So pretty. I love the bottle wall so much. Unique and so pretty when the sunlight gets through. And that ying yang hole is so cool too 😆😆😆 I hope we can see more earthship from this channel.
Love, Love, Love!! A beautiful beautiful home. I love that Amy built this fabulous Earthship in a suburban community. It looks similar to a conventional home with a stunning flair and has all the unique benefits of an Earthship home. I think one of the coolest aspects of Earthship homes is the way they are built by a community.
Wow! This is absolutely gorgeous and built with such love. Amy is such a warm, welcoming person; I'm not surprised that her many friends wanted to help her with this impressive build.
This is with out a doubt the best off grid home I have ever seen ! Amazing property and design ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is your first home ? Amazing ! I'd never give it up, if I were you !
I assumed earth ship homes needed to be built into an existing hill but it's nice to see you can create your own anywhere. I love the idea of putting colored resin in the bottom of the bottles so as not to be limited by the color of the original bottles. What a beautiful place to call home.
I absolutely love how this earthship was designed and decorated! I want an earthship too one day and I'll be sure to rewatch this video from my RUclips favorites for inspiration when the time comes ☯️
Everything about this amazing earthship home is exactly what I've dreamed of having someday. I researched this process for years, hoping that someday I'd be able to build one for myself. Unfortunately as the years go by, I've recognized that my dream is just that, a dream. This is absolutely magical & knowing the amount of work it took to complete this, it's great knowing how happy & fulfilled Amy is with her special home. Thanks for sharing this wonderful home with its beautiful, responsible, resourceful design. ❤
Beautiful home!! The way she talks and has so much passion is so special. I loved hearing how he views the home and how when looking she can think about the people that helped her make possible certain parts. The community is amazing and from it came an amazing home. I loved the shots at the end of the warm light inside along with the warmth of the color of the walls. So cozy looking and inviting! I also loved the bits with her talking about her cats!! They looked so peaceful and content. Amazing video guys. Vidoeography and editing amazing!
Brilliant informative tour of Amy's gorgeous Earthship home. Getting that cost down with more volunteers and education/building clubs donating time would go a long way to enticing others to adopt and build more of these good-for-Earth and good-for-us healthful homes.

Never been a big earthship fan.But this one has totally won me over.It’s a beautiful site everywhere I look ❤
@@Talajunothis is a full sized house, bigger than each of my parents full sized homes, it's a sustainably built house but not small by any standards
It’s not really a tiny house, but perfectly made
Love the fact that you're branching out to include some of the lesser-seen methods of house building. Keep up the good work, team.

This has to be in my top 3 homes.
Just wonderful; the decor, the space, the greenhouse. Wow!
This is one of my favourite earthships that l have ever seen. Wow. ❤
Earthships have been my favorite type of non-traditional building for several years. Awesome seeing this great example!
Amy is very knowledgeable and passionate about Earthships! That solar panel system is massive!!
Very impressive! Creative, sustainable and beautiful. Outstanding!
I loved the way Amy explained how the earthship worked, how it was built and the idea behind features. It was fantastic! Great video Bryce (and people behind the camera).
I agree. Amy is very articulate & knowledgeable. She explained everything very well. What an amazing collaboration with other advocates. The earth ship home is such an excellent use of discarded materials. 😮 Amazing.
You said it Bryce,” wow! What a space she has made.” I think that this is my favorite of all time. Thank you and Rasa for continuing to bring us such beautiful and inspiring homes.
I do dream of having this level of wealth one day. Such an organic house built by love, nice new appliances, a luxurious RV, pets, a supportive community, etc. She is so very lucky.
Just stunning, thank you for posting!
This is BY FAR the MOST AWESOME Earthship Home I have ever seen, as far as being closest to what I would personally want in a home, functionality, design, & even a lot of her decorating. LOVE IT!!
My dream is still to build an earthship style house. A lot of details that I would do differently (rammed earth instead of tire walls, composting toilets, two story house, a rocket mass heater tied into in-floor radiant heating, solar water heaters...) but it will utilize a lot of the basic principles (water collection and recycling, thermal mass, solar heating, earth berm, cooling tubes...)
This is by far, bar none, one of the BEST homes you've featured, and that's saying something. WOW! It's spectacular!
Wow, this blew me away...Your home is self-sufficient and beautiful 😍..... your caring for the environment is most amazing. Looking at your home from the outside you wouldn't think it is not a regular home...Your kitties are gorgeous 😍...I see you have a covered garage and a camper for those adventures....are you going to be doing landscaping in the front of your home...Lots of luck
Wow, this is The Most Beautiful earthship home I have ever seen !!
I admit, I never thought they were attractive, until now, just sufficient.
It is spacious, I like the decor. Ooh la la that bathtub !
The garden is lovely, to wake up every morning looking at that banana tree is a bonus.
You are right, you were blessed to have such good friends to help you build this beauty. To donate their time and the beautiful types of wood. You have everything you need in a home, enjoy !!
She is truly blessed , what a lovely earthship she has created and have the most wonderful friends and all the helpful , kind people she has met . I hope I will have this one day soon.. manifesting this and good kind friends too..
This is definitely my number one property you have visited. Amy is truly blessed. Thank you for sharing. Beautiful!!! ❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
I love earthships so much. Mike Reynolds is truly a visionary. I know in Australia there have been a lot of issues around council approvals and other regulations for earthships so it is wonderful to see it can be done. I would love to see more of these.
The huge happiness and satisfaction with home that the house designer/dwellers on this channel have for their homes -- whether tiny or alternative -- is the major common denominator.
Pam here….LOVE THIS. So many advantages of a bermed or earth ship, the moderation of temps, the quietness and solid feeling the home gives. I love the greenhouse hallway of the front, so many do not have that and regulating the heat, light into home is more difficult. Makes me want to scavenge the landfills for tires and glass. ❤😂😂❤❤
I've never seen an earthship in this type of location before. It's STUNNING! Not just an earthship but a homeship too, a beautiful, cosy, magnificent, friendly house full of love, cats and friends. It's magnificent 😍 😍 😍
WOW is right! This is spectacular! I would love to create an earthship.
Amy is so knowledgable and pleasant and passionate ! And the home is one of the best i have seen on any channels ...
This house has given me so many great ideas. Thank you to Amy, her friends and the host of the show. ❤
Amy's Earthship is beautiful...hope she enjoys many happy years enjoying the home that she & her friends built...great job!
So much to love about this video Bryce. Loved the home and loved her. Such great energy and positivism. It was interesting to hear about her journey of how she came to build an earthship home. All because she was volunteering in Nicaragua where she wound up helping to build a school there using this process. And who knew there was a class/seminar one could take to learn more about it as she did when she traveled to Taos, NM and then the serendipity of having an earthship guru right in her area where she was able to work on another monthlong project. Pretty amazing journey.
What a great home for Amy😊 It’s perfect!! I love everything about it, and Amy is such a great conversationist! I’d LOVE to spend a day with Amy, I could listen to her stories all day god love her😍 She is so informative! I wonder what area she lives?🤔
LOVE how she describes the house giving her a big warm hug on a cool day, she’s so lovely and sweet!😍💗🌻💐
I'm speechless!! This huge-tiny earthship is one of the most beautiful houses seen so far. The passion and commitment that went into the construction of this masterpiece is commendable!
A spectacular project.
Thanks Bryce and Rasa.
I hope that this year for Christmas greetings many inhabitants of the Tiny Houses will record a greeting video, so I can see everyone together with pleasure.
A big hug from Livorno, Tuscany, Italy and I hope that soon I will be able to realize my dream of having a Tiny House and communicate it to you!!
Happy Holidays to you and your families.
Stunning well done Amy thank you for showing us your Earthship Home and thank you Bryce and Rasa for finding this absolute gem xo 💜
Loved this! Amy has a stunner of a home. Thank you, Bryce and Rasa, for sharing this.
Thank you for sharing these Videos. I have learned of Earthships back in 2015 when I accidentally drove by the Greater World communiy near Taos. I was intrigued by the ideas of Michael Reynolds! Owning a conventional "stick house" in rural New Mexico, I started to add Earthship principles to my home, talking PV, solar thermal hot water, rainwater catchment, a south-facing Greenhouse Add-On with thermal mass walls and floors, gray-water recycling through planters and a South facing tire wall (this one would need some explanation... HA!). I am getting close to become energy-neutral including driving electric. My Goal: Less than 30 wood stove firing days per year (at 6000+ feet elevation), no more fruit and veggies from the super-market, no more dependencies on local infrastructures (meaning: electric grid outages pass me without me noticing), always a comfortable home to be in. Retro-fitting an existing conventional US-type stick house is hard, but I am almost there!
Love the amount of big drawers in the kitchen. The very best way of storing things. Pity an earthship is so labour intensive, as it seems to be the best type of housebuild, and the healthiest to live in.
This is one of the loveliest earthships I've ever seen.
Just, wow! This! I wish to get one for myself 💟 Thank you Amy, Bryce, and Raza for sharing this beautiful creation.
Literally one of the COOLEST homes I have ever seen. I want one. 😍
The result is so amazing. Imagine waking up with that view from your bedroom, banana tree and all that greens. So pretty. I love the bottle wall so much. Unique and so pretty when the sunlight gets through. And that ying yang hole is so cool too 😆😆😆 I hope we can see more earthship from this channel.
Love, Love, Love!! A beautiful beautiful home. I love that Amy built this fabulous Earthship in a suburban community. It looks similar to a conventional home with a stunning flair and has all the unique benefits of an Earthship home. I think one of the coolest aspects of Earthship homes is the way they are built by a community.
Wow! This is absolutely gorgeous and built with such love. Amy is such a warm, welcoming person; I'm not surprised that her many friends wanted to help her with this impressive build.
I was at one of the workshops helping to build this, its so amazing to see it completed, its a dream! 😍
I've never seen such a wonderful home! Miss Amy is a pioneer and a lovely soul. Thank you for bringing this to us.
This was such an educational episode. I love her home and how she used natural materials to build it. It appears very comfortable and spacious.
One of the best Earthships I've seen on the internet. One of the best episodes too!
I've been wanting an earthship and watching and learning about them for more than 20 years. I'm so glad to see this as a feature, Bryce!
When the charm of the owner shines through their home.
This is with out a doubt the best off grid home I have ever seen ! Amazing property and design ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is your first home ? Amazing ! I'd never give it up, if I were you !
She is so smart and able to really explain it to us
This is a fantastic home, I love that greenhouse at the front & the homeowner seems lovely
I assumed earth ship homes needed to be built into an existing hill but it's nice to see you can create your own anywhere. I love the idea of putting colored resin in the bottom of the bottles so as not to be limited by the color of the original bottles. What a beautiful place to call home.
the colored resin in the bottles is a game changer--a world of colorful possibilities!
I absolutely love how this earthship was designed and decorated! I want an earthship too one day and I'll be sure to rewatch this video from my RUclips favorites for inspiration when the time comes ☯️
I'd say that she is an old soul.defo been here before.I can usually spot them...🤗
New Mexico here, I love earthships! This is beautiful.
I love this design and the fact that everything is all on one floor.
Everything about this amazing earthship home is exactly what I've dreamed of having someday. I researched this process for years, hoping that someday I'd be able to build one for myself. Unfortunately as the years go by, I've recognized that my dream is just that, a dream. This is absolutely magical & knowing the amount of work it took to complete this, it's great knowing how happy & fulfilled Amy is with her special home. Thanks for sharing this wonderful home with its beautiful, responsible, resourceful design. ❤
Beautiful home!! The way she talks and has so much passion is so special. I loved hearing how he views the home and how when looking she can think about the people that helped her make possible certain parts. The community is amazing and from it came an amazing home. I loved the shots at the end of the warm light inside along with the warmth of the color of the walls. So cozy looking and inviting! I also loved the bits with her talking about her cats!! They looked so peaceful and content. Amazing video guys. Vidoeography and editing amazing!
Brilliant informative tour of Amy's gorgeous Earthship home. Getting that cost down with more volunteers and education/building clubs donating time would go a long way to enticing others to adopt and build more of these good-for-Earth and good-for-us healthful homes.
