A friend forwarded me this link of Whole Tree Architecture creations and I wanted to share!
How cool is this? Roald Gunderson creates buildings from whole trees! From the site: “According to the Forest Products Laboratory, a whole, unmilled tree can support 50 percent more weight than the largest piece of lumber milled from the same tree.”
Enjoy!
