It’s a 1-room cabin so the bedroom, kitchen, and dining room are all in one open concept space.This mini earthship-style cabin is built with recycled tires and glass bottles, cob, and a gorgeous green roof.

The bathroom is the only thing that is separate from the living area.While this micro cabin design looks a lot like an earthship, the design does not include all 6 principles of an earthship.
This cabin is indirectly powered with solar, it’s built with reclaimed and natural materials, and it has a passive solar design. It does not collect rainwater, produce food or treat grey and black water.

We visited this green building during a recent trip to Portugal and were excited to see such a neat space surrounded by inspiring projects and other structures. It has a natural pool/pond, trails, a yurt, a straw bale home, a yoga studio, dogs, chickens, horses, and a cat, as well as extensive gardens and fruit trees. A beautiful permaculture space/eco-resort to visit for sure!//Exploring Alternatives
