Walking Around Earthship Biotecture in Tres Piedras, New Mexico

Eric drives northwest to Tres Piedras and says that our next stop will be architecturally interesting... And, it is.





Uniquely designed buildings
rise out of the sagebrush
plain.








The lines on this structure
remind me of Frank











We arrive at Earthship
Biotecture.







Earthship Biotecture provides guided tours for groups of 10.  Eric and I were the only visitors this morning, so I content myself with taking photos of the exteriors of these unique structures.





The structure on the
right reminds me of







The green masonry
blends into the
landscape.









Eric points the windows
on this building.

They provide passive solar

This building also takes
advantage of passive 
solar heating.  

It's beautiful.








This building is under
construction.

The round sections don't
have windows.





I assume that solar panels will be used. to power this building.
