What I Want Our Holy Sites To Look Like
The Kircher blog explores houses made from living trees.
“The habitat is based on an ancient gardening method known as pleaching, which weaves together tree branches to form living archways, lattices or screens… the exterior of the living house is shaped over the course of several decades into a protective crisscross of vines, interspersed with soil pockets and growing plants.” – Tracy Staedter, Discovery News
This is the kind of melding of old traditions with new technologies that our community should be championing! I would be awestruck to see a row of such houses, truly a holy architecture.
