Would you like to live in such a house?

It is like a fairy tale house in the real world, but in fact this appears to be an old technique of building  called cordwood masonryused by  Rob and Jaki Roy to create not only their own house, but also to teach others, who want to use it at their Earthwood Building School.In an interesting article in New York Times
