House by the Fens

Outline
The house was built using 60 trees from the local forest, from structure to construction. Bricks were made from clay mined during the root cutting process and laid under the floor, and pipes for floor heating were passed through the grooves. The photographs, which capture the construction process in a new and faithful manner to the "Välderhaus," a house type rooted in the land, tell the story of the metamorphosis process of the earth and forest into architecture.
