Outdoor African Bedroom

Clearly this is a dream bedroom for some and a nightmare for others! I love it for the sheer simple beauty and the chance to wake up with glorious nature all around you.

This bedroom does have windows and sliding doors which gives the illusion of being outdoors.

I lived in a similar environment a few years ago and decided to move the bed onto the verandah. This lasted for a few hours before the darkness started to creep in with all the critters! Very romantic but in reality one just could not sleep. The possibility of jaguars or other large creatures wandering around whilst you slept just didn't appeal. Beautiful in the day. In the dark? -oh, mind the snakes!!

Do you like this look?

Eco-House

This house has been made as eco-friendly as possible. The couple who built it have 2 young children and one can imagine how much fun it must be to live in a house like this at any age.
Please click The Woodland House to go directly to their website and you might also want to consider supporting them in their efforts to help others build similar types of homes. Their site has plans, more images and information about their build and eco-philosophy. Proof that building a home doesn't have to be expensive.

Overall much more fun than a Lego-style house, wouldn't you agree?
