Eliphante: Artistic & Natural Low-Impact Home

You may know we are planning to build a straw bale house. I recently came across the beautiful homestead Eliphante, built by two artists over a 28-year period. From the site:

1979 Michael & Leda moved themselves and their paintings from Provincetown MA to rural land in Cornville Arizona. There they began the first mixed media structure which they later called Eliphante. They continued building and sculpting on the 3 acre environment.

The New York Times did a nice feature on the artists' lives and their home; check it out
