It would be very unusual for someone to build a
home without doing some kind of drawing to get an idea about how
they want the house to look when it's built. Heidi's
tiny
cottage is about as close to her original drawings as you will
find. Not so much close in detail like an architect's drawings but
close in spirit. Hiedi used cob, roundwood, straw bales and
cordwood to build her home, all natural materials beautifully
sculpted to help her
achieve the softness and warmth the little cottage has. The
cottage is called 'Elaman Puu', meaning 'Tree of Life'. It's the
same tree of life she has painted on her pregnant tummy (below). Heidi is
an artist. Her home is like a canvas where she expresses her style
and love of nature. |
