I love this video.❤️ I would like to know…How long does it take to tear down and rebuild one of these turf houses??
I’d love to build one of these, but it’d be easier to get logs, stone, and limestone here locally than cut that much sod.
C’est très intéressant
I love that he said the class difference was very small; and the rich, and not so rich, both used the same material to build their homes.
I’m pretty sure nobody lives in those houses anymore
Love it but he is probably a socialist; wonder how he would like many many foreigners living around him !!!!
Beautiful. Thank you for this video
Great video, very educational and enjoyable. Thank you.
Anyone knows what’s the instrument we see at the beginning that look similar to a violon?
great video. where is the washroom/ toilet? How do they dispose waste and collect water?
don’t forget they were happy to live together as there was not much wood to burn either…had to keep the heat in…body heat, and all the animals were inside and therefore warm through long winters…and protected from predators. Can also smoke your meat in your own house…
I would happily live in that in a heart beat. Sadly my nation believes in capitalism above society and planet and so if I built it, they would demolish it for not adhering to minimum standards, that being a brick and mortar construction with minimum size restraints, thus forcing people to rent or buy a home from corporations and landlords. 70% of my income goes on rent, and I live in a poor area of the UK, not a palace. My house is 106 years old, costs a fortune to heat and power despite my frugality, all purchased from energy corporations.
I can have my home insulated, but I have to buy that from a corporations for £3,500.
I can have solar panels, but I have to get planning permission which costs close to £500 plus another £2,000 for the panels.
When 70% of your income is spent on rent, none of these are readily available. And when 17 million people in the UK don’t have £100 in the bank, you can be assured it is not just me in this position.
We are effectively, through poverty and cutting of government subsidies and services for society, are being railroaded in to market solutions. And only those who can afford such things have access to them. i.e. the top 30%. The joy of capitalism before society.
I envy you, it is how we all should be living given the times we are in.
I love your videos but the mmhmm during the whole thing is kind of driving me crazy.
Valuable content here. Thank you so much for sharing this rich cultural and ecological wisdom.
Is there a book on constructing homes like this?
Fk that lifestyle 👎
You two publish the most interesting videos, this one is fascinating.
how utterly beautiful are the houses
thankyou to the Gentleman &
yourselves
Fantastic! I’m an architecture student from Belgium, this way of building and living inspires me a lot. Added this video to my favorites 😊
I’m out of breath just listening to him talk.
Excellent interview, thank you. I watched most of it, but missed how they blackened the wood. Sort of shou sugi ban?
What was the with inside these homes?
Beautiful buildings
Cozy ! Impressive too!
Why do they keep calling it communal living? It’s family living, the opposite of communal.
I would love to have a conversation with this man, he seems very nice
Does anyone know what instrument that guy was playing?
I can totally picture Hafthor living there.
Cool video thanks
Thanks so much for this video. I really appreciate learning about tiny homes in other parts of the world where notions of privacy and sharing are so different from those of us who live here in Canada. Thanks and good luck in your travels.
The Hobbit homes of Iceland 🙂
Smart and BEAUTIFUL 😍
You had these in the Netherlands and northern Germany aswell.
Some still survive today.
interesting video, thanks
SUBTITLES PLEASE!
Wow these are incredible! A good book, some carving supplies and one of these homes and I would probably never leave!
