A little teaser of the project I'm currently working on. I've been filming as much of the process as possible and hope to release the videos once I can edit them.

From the locals who viewed the house, there were puzzled remarks like “You’re going to buy this old house?” and “Isn’t it better to demolish it and build a new house?”, but for us, we can only see the possibilities of this house.

Through this project, as much as possible we wish to:
- Treasure the old and reuse materials.
- Source local materials and suppliers.
- Build a house which is friendly to the environment and human health and
- Blends into the scenery of Japan.

    This is the true way of sustainability, nothing fancy, just hardwork, skill and living off the land

    I'm really looking forward to follow your project! So curios to see it evolve! I can see that there is an enormous amount of work to be done. Most people will never realise how much work and effort is needed.
