Construction

The Cabin “The Turtle” is a 7 meter high dome build from mud brick. It has two floors and it´s main characteristics are the round forms everywhere. On each floor we find a large window and the floors are done with round slices of cypress tree. The beds are round or moon shaped and harmonize perfectly with the building. We inspired ourselves by buildings of the ancient Uru- Chipaya culture from Bolivia and some African tribes who use similar houses, though smaller and without windows.
