Iconoculture: Architects Mitchell Joachim and Javier Arbona teamed up with environmental engineer Lara Greden to dream up the ultimate tree house — a two-story, water-recycling, solar-powered, living crib. They're testing techniques for growing a weave of vines and trees that will form a lattice-like outer structure. Inside walls will be packed with clay and plastered.
The team is experimenting with a soy-based film for the windows that would expand as the house grew.The trio say a house would take about five years to grow. They envision tree-house farms where growing houses are tended and homeowners can pick out a finished house for transport as far as 100 miles.
