Into The Wild

Oct 29, 2015 | Views: 521

I have always loved architecture and blog about it whenever I can, especially houses that blend in creatively with nature. People often dream of owning big houses in big cities; who would have thought that a small house in the middle of nowhere would be so appealing? It’s amazing how creativity can turn something simple into something desirable and attractive to many.

I really enjoy looking at all these beautiful pictures of houses. In fact, ever since I was a young child, I have been drawn to nature’s beauty and greenery, and architecture that brings a sense of closeness to nature. It gives me inspiration and also ideas of ergonomic, economical and yet beautiful retreat houses that we can build in Kechara Forest Retreat.

I found this marvellous article which features incredibly unique houses in nature. Do take a look and be inspired. We should continuously expose ourselves to new ideas and innovations so that we realize that most things are possible, although we may believe otherwise due to fear of failure. Take for example the house on the cliff: 50 years ago, such an idea would be unthinkable, but it is possible today. Always keep an open mind. Do visit their site and read up more.

Into The Wild: 12 Secluded Homes And Structures Built Away From Civilisation

Every now and then, we all dream of living a peaceful and quiet life off the grid. Maybe the thought creeps up on us when work is starting to feel like Groundhog Day, or perhaps it’s just an ongoing internal longing for some real isolation.

On this note, we’ve gathered some of the most secluded homes and structures in the world, all located off the beaten path, among Mother Nature, and deep into the wild.

So take a few minutes and venture away from the cramped crowds and tedious traffic by picturing yourself relocating to these dwellings far, far away from civilisation – even if it’s just through the land of your imagination.

 

1. The Crystal Mill Shack

Our first thought when laying eyes on photos of The Crystal Mill; is this place even real? The good news is that yes it is, however the bad news is that it’s not actually a house, rather a “power plant” on Colorado’s Crystal River. The site may remain privately owned and not open for public inspection, but this doesn’t stop us from playing make-believe.

2. Village of Gásadalur

​Located on the island of Vágar in the Faroe Islands, the village of Gásadalur possessing breathtaking views holds a small population of 18. Its inaccessibility makes the site difficult to visit only becoming accessible by car in 2004.

3. Finnish Micro House in the Woods

Finnish designer Robin Falck built this cabin in the middle of a forest so small it doesn’t even require a permit. According to Finland regulations, you are allowed to build a dwelling without a permit if it’s less than 96–128 square feet (depending on the location). The micro house features uniquely angled windows giving the interior a lot of natural light and allows the owner to see the stars at night.

4. Fallingwater Kaufmann Residence

Fallingwater, also known as the Kaufmann House, is one of the most famous houses in America, built by Frank Lloyd Wright. Once used as the family weekend home between 1937 to 1963, it was then donated to the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy in 1964 and opened to the public as a museum. Reportedly, Angelina Jolie brought Brad Pitt to the home for a two-hour private tour for his birthday in 2006. Apparently, Pitt wanted to experience Fallingwater due to holding a keen interest in architectural history.

5. Casa do Penedo (House of Stone)

The House of Stone is a two-storey home built among four large boulders in an open field in Portugal. The house was built in 1974 as a family’s rural retreat but in recent years it has attracted the attention of tourists and architecture enthusiasts to the point that the owner, Vitor Rodrigues, has had to move to find solace once again from the curious visitors.

6. House on the Drina River

For over four decades this bizarre little house has survived everything that nature can throw at it. Balancing on a rock in the middle of the Drina River in Serbia, the house has been pounded by floods and high winds – yet stood strong. Built by a group of young swimmers out having a splash in the river who simply wanted a place to rest, they found the rock and started using it regularly. Then as time went by, they wanted a more comfortable place and began to build the house one board at a time.

7. Cliff House

For people who like to live on the edge comes a home with a distinctive seaside view. Inspired by barnacles which hang off a ship’s hull, ‘Cliff House’ is a three-bedroom home anchored to a sheer cliff face, designed by Australian architectural firm Modscape. So far, the Cliff House exists only as a digital day dream, but while getting a planning permit could be challenging, the design team is adamant it is feasible.

8. Thousand Islands Single House

Set in the middle of Canada’s Saint Lawrence river sits the self-explanatory named Just Room Enough Island, a tiny island which has enough space to support one house and nothing else. When the tide is high the water of the river laps against the house’s walls, however at low tide, the owners are able to set up their garden furniture on their porch and soak up the sun, neighbour free.

9. The Holy Trinity Monastery

High up in the rocky hills of Meteora lies not one but six inhabited monasteries, all of which are still fully functioning today. This gravity defying construction which overlooks the Greek town of Kalambaka can be reached by a series of 140 steps which sum up to about 400 metres high and are carved directly into the cliff face.

10. The HemLoft Secret Tree House

After graduating with a degree in software development, owner of the self-made and self-funded HemLoft secret tree house, Joel Allen went to work for a start-up company that would eventually fold in 2006. Jobless and without direction, he then met self-taught carpenter ‘Old Man John’ at a festival who went on to inspire Joel in pursuing his passion for carpentry. And the rest as they say is history.

11. The House in the Island of Elliðaey

On the island Elliðaey, lies one lonesome and mysterious cottage with only a few stray cattle that loiter about its grassy rock in sight. Isolated from the rest of the world, not a great deal is known about the island or the house that occupies it.

12. Romantic Tiny Forest Home

To end this list on something more achievable for the common folk; this romantic forest retreat was built by a man who promised to build a tree house for his soon to be wife after a few too many glasses of wine one New Year’s Eve. The tiny getaway home was built in six weeks for $4000.

    Looking at those very unique house been built simply stunning. Creatively with nature indeed , salute to those architecture who has such a wild ideas and innovations building such an incredibly unique houses in nature. No easy though but everything is possible.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing .

  2. sarassitham on Mar 15, 2021 at 3:57 pm

    These were all so amazing, beyond imagination nature build of homes. I loved the creativity design and extraordinary ideas to make these marvelous unique houses, they do look very cozy.

    Where you live, and what you build it out of is determined by how much you can afford to spend on the your dream house. If I had a chance to build one on hill top, I will make sure the environment is save to live and has all the modern facilities.

    Love these interesting photoes and extraordinary looking houses. Especially some that caught my eyes are..10. The HemLoft Secret Tree House. 3. Finnish Micro House in the Woods. 4. Fallingwater Kaufmann Residence. Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this unique looking houses in the wild.

  4. Lin Mun on Oct 14, 2016 at 10:08 pm

    Amazing houses and complicated architecture in a such a beautiful places. It is amazing that houses are built at the edge of the cliff, at high mountainous, on the trees and etc.

    Things that we think is impossible were made possible by the designer and builders. Once again proves that when there is a will, there is a way.

  5. samfoonheei on Aug 3, 2016 at 1:55 pm

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing these beautiful and amazing houses…very unique architecture surrounding by nature.Do enjoy looking at those beautiful pictures and the scenery as well.Can see and wonder how those houses was built at that time when there is not much machinery.The Holy Trinity Monastery is one of them when it was built on a cliff.They some how did it.
    Thanks again Rinpoche .

  6. Freon on Apr 14, 2016 at 9:37 am

    Dear Rinpoche

    Thank you for sharing these amazing houses. Really enjoy the houses and scenery by looking at it. They are amazing. I wonder how the photographer found it out.

    While going through the pictures. I was thinking how these people build it. Some of the architecture was so complicated. Like the house on Cliff, the Monastery on high hill and the tree house. How about the basic facilities and electric supplier where do they get it. Well, maybe I am just too use to city lifestyle that supply everything to our convenient.

    Come to think about this, this attachment towards the conveninces have brought me laziness and attached to the concept must have this or that then only can be success. Those beautiful house just build like that in middle of no where. No facilities that make the house easy to build and yet the houses are build and beautiful!

    This pictures actually correct my wrong view. As long as we wanted it, everything can be done.

    Thank you Rinpoche for this post.

    An amazing eye opener and joyful to see all these homes that have been designed to give people space from a lot of people.

  8. Pastor Moh Mei on Feb 10, 2016 at 6:20 pm

    I’ll trade place for any of those secluded homes anytime, except maybe the cliff house. Too much of a cliffhanger. My favorites are the House in the Island of Elliðaey, the HemLoft Secret Tree House and the Finnish Micro House in the Woods. There’s something very appealing about living in a tiny space in nature. Human really only have few basic needs such as oxygen, food, water and shelter. As far as shelter goes, we actually need very little space. That’s why Buddhist practitioners like Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo can spent 12 years living in a small cave in the Himalayas.

    It is not always possible nowadays for nature lovers to live freely in the wild with the concept of property market and land ownership being enforced on civilization. It is obvious that many still crave living a peaceful and quiet life off the grid. While many of us are born into a concrete jungle and grew up surrounded by four walls, there are still among us that are born in the wild. Some of us considered them fortunate while others may find them under-privileged, even uncivilized.

    Does introducing television and internet to a remote village in Africa do more harm or good? Does it serve humanity if Africa become a developed country? Does it serve humanity if the Amazon, the Himalaya, the Galapagos are developed? Or should these pristine nature be spared from mankind’s greed and lust for materialism, power, ownership? I only hope that in mankind’s quest for civilization, modernity and technology advancement, we do not end up sacrificing nature entirely.

    Dear Rinpoche,

    My favourite architect is Frank Lloyd Wright and I love his work especially how he makes his structure respond to the nature in its pure way. These are so beautiful houses and locations Rinpoche. I loved the way simplicity and the natural way of design and the most beautiful thing is solitary. Would be so peaceful and blissful to live in those places. So many hardships and commitment might have given by the people who brought up such beautiful architectures. Thank you _()_

  10. Stella Cheang on Dec 5, 2015 at 7:31 pm

    My favorite architecture is Fallingwater aka Kaufmann Residence because it was built by the famous architect, Frank Lloyd Wright who was known for blending his architectural design with nature and humanity. My other favorite architecture is The HemLoft Secret Tree House because it resembles a gigantic fruit hanging amidst the trees.

    All the architectures in this blogpost are of distinctive form with organic aesthetic features, which are a joy to look at.

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this wonderful blogpost with us.

    Humbly, bowing down,
    Stella

  11. Pastor Elena Khong Jean Ai on Nov 24, 2015 at 4:09 am

    Some of these homes are absolute works of art. But more than their beauty, I appreciate a lot of them for the solitude that they offer.

    The older I get and the less I have, the more I realise the little I need. A few weeks ago, I went to clear my things. A third of my stuff, I threw away and another third, I donated to Jace’s flea market. The last third were dharma books and items so I kept them.

    It took me a while but I came to the realisation that I am never going to go back to my old life and be okay with it, so all of these possessions I hang on to, I don’t need at all. Look – if I haven’t used it in three years, am I ever going to use it again? So why do I keep my diving gear and my gowns, other than because I’m clinging to some false past and its remnants which I already wanted to leave behind because I requested Rinpoche to be a nun and shaved my head?

    And that’s really all of us. If we really get down to the nitty gritty, much of what we surround ourselves with is completely unnecessary to our daily living. What of our things do we actually NEED in order to live? We hang on to it because we ascribe some false value to it but if we examine our possessions objectively, will they matter to us and hold the same value to us 5, 10, 20, 50 years down the line?

    So does the isolation of these places featured in this blog post scare me? Do I worry I’ll have nothing to do, that it’ll be boring? Do the size of some of these homes worry me? Not really. I would LOVE to live in the romantic tiny forest home because honestly, that’s all the space anyone needs. If we need to distract ourselves with possessions, and we need to fill our lives with it, what are we trying to run away from in our minds? Just something to think about.

  12. Beatrix Ooi on Nov 23, 2015 at 1:00 pm

    My favourite house would be The House in the Island of Elliðaey, I like the fact that it’s totally isolated from others and stands by it’s own. I love to live in places where it’s quiet and lush, and this is like a dream house. I can imagine myself waking up to such a lush green view, with a few dogs running around the premise freely. There isn’t a word to describe how exciting I am when I think of myself living in that little hut there, I’m so thrilled! I have good imaginations hehehe

    I must say that I’m really impressed by the architecture and the engineers who build all these houses. They are definitely not easy one of those easy projects especially that one house that ‘hangs’ by the cliff, it requires a lot of safety measures and professionals to come up with something like this.

    It requires a lot of studies and experiments to make sure that the buildings are long-lasting or durable especially when most of them are directly exposed to harsh conditions like for example, the houses in the woods especially have to be termite-free or else the termites will definitely eat up the whole house and that is pretty scary. But in short, I love all these houses, very eco-friendly and simple.

  13. Edward Ooi on Nov 15, 2015 at 2:26 pm

    The house that surprises me the most is The House in the Island of Elliðaey. Because from the picture shown, there are not much materials to even built a house like this. I have seen a picture like the first one before but not the rests and I also didn’t know that the house is on an island of nowhere, I only thought that the house in somewhere faraway near a cliff of someplace. This house really gives me a lots of thought and it is making me eager to go into the myself. I have questions like: are there still anyone living in there? How did the person or these people managed to built such a wonderful house? How did they get there? How long has the house been there for? Judging from my point of view, I believe this cottage hasn’t been over a century because of the design of the cottage.

    As for the Cliff House, I feel that it is kinda dangerous to live there, yes it is stable, but what happens when the owner has over 50 companies with him in the house and someone is weird enough to jump and stomp the floor very hard. Won’t the house shake a lot? And for long term, won’t the bars that is supporting the house get rusty and break down?

    Other houses also look astonishing and breathtaking. They look old fashion, very secretive, defining physics, dream clubhouse or tree houses. This shows us what humans are capable of making just by using their creativity. The one house that still fascinates me the most and I wish to visit the The house in the island of Ellioaey. Only if I am able to go there. Hehe

    Any work done with the teachings of the Buddha alive in our hearts is Dharma work. Some of us share the precious and uniquely challenging opportunity of working or volunteering for a Dharma organization . We must practice with the bodhisattva attitude every day as long as we all try to remember the workings of ego, karma and impermanence .The ultimate goal of Dharma practice is to benefit all sentient beings and lead them to happiness. This aspiration can transform any activity into Dharma work. Copying scriptures, making offerings, giving to the poor, listening to teachings, meditating, and reflecting on the teachings are all considered Dharma activities. Our attitude and intention are crucial for whether our work becomes Dharma work. Even a secular job can become spiritual if we approach it with purpose, and a commitment to benefit others. That’s Dharma work when the work benefits sentient beings and the teachings of Buddha; it depends on the motivation one has and how one does the work. Profound teachings.
    Thank you Rinpoche .

    Chariots of the Gods is a book written back in 1968 by Erich von Däniken. Erich von Däniken is a Swiss author of several pseudoscientific books which make claims about extra-terrestrial influences on early human culture. Interesting the book is all about those many unsolved mysteries of the past, which was an immediate bestseller in the United States, Germany, and many more countries. His books have been translated into 28 languages, and have sold 60 million copies worldwide. Through his archaeological findings has suggested that in ancient times the earth was visited by extra-terrestrials. Interesting read.
    Thank you Rinpoche great sharing.

    Revisit this post….A touching song by a Mongolian boy who lost his mother to a fatal illness, and also lost his father shortly thereafter to a car accident . It was in China’s Got Talent contest 2011 , this 12yr-old Mongolian boy performed a touching song sending his thought to his mother at heaven. It had touched the hearts of the judges and audiences. Even though it was a Mongolian folk song which I could not understand but hearing it truly touching.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Wow what a brilliant way to spread Dharma through having comics pictures. Comics as visual storytelling is a unique art form that combines words and images.Through reading and seeing through those comics books everyone could understand. Its suitable for adults and kids and even the old. These comics depicts the power of Dorje Shugden. A picture is worth a thousand words, but a comic is worth a million. The pictures and words interact in the reader’s mind, resulting in the story. For Kechara coming up with this comic Karuna Finds A Way book, more and more people understand better of Dharma and more so of Dorje Shugden.
    Thank you Rinpoche and writers team.

    Vietnam is home to a variety of strange, real-life creatures such as Asian Unicorn , snub-nosed monkey , smallest sun bear species in the world, and so on. Vietnam’s animals are a vital part of the country’s biodiversity, comprising unique and endangered species that deserve protection and appreciation. Those animals that exist are one of the most underrated appeals of the country. Back in 1947 ancient tribes-people living in the mysterious forest creatures appeared regularly sighted by farmers. Its was only in 1982 a Professor discovery of a footprint of Nguoi Rung creature an undiscovered species of hominid like the Yeti or Bigfoot. That’s awesome, so Yeti do exist .

    Reading this old post tells us more who Kechara Buddhist Pastor Yek Yee is for sure. A hard working lady whom everyone could see for themselves . A disciplined, resilient lady who possesses incredible stamina taking on new challenges when given tasks. Devoted to task, working tireless in effort . She has great and vast knowledge in Buddhism and also very good with Tibetan Buddhist rituals. She indeed has inspired many through the years at Kechara.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this inspiring post and reading what others have said about Pastor Yak Yee.

    I was infected with Genital Herpes Virus 10 month ago, ever since then i have been searching for cure everywhere because i was feeling so uncomfortable with it. I have been dating for almost 5 years until i contracted Genital Herpes from my ex-boyfriend. since then I became very sad about the whole situation, always going online checking if i could get a cure to Genital Herpes, then i came across so many testimonies. Due to my seriousness and eagerness to be completely cured, i became a victim of fraud after contacting several so-called herbal doctors i was referred to. I lost a lot of money but i didn’t stop searching for a cure. Then one faithful day, i came across a testimony of a lady saying that she got her Genital herpes cured by a Great Herbal Doctor she called Dr iniboku by contacting him through his email address. And she advised anyone with Genital Herpes or Simplex Herpes to contact the herbal doctor for Herbal Cure. I contemplated for about 4 hours whether or not to contact him. then something inside of me told me ‘Nothing good comes easy’. I then contacted him through his email and told him my problem. He told me all the things I needed to do and also gave me instructions to follow, which I did properly. Just within weeks of drinking and applying the herbal medication he sent to me through DHL delivery service, i started seeing changes, i went to my medical doctor for check-up, i was so happy when the doctor told me i was no more having Genital Herpes Virus, it was all tears of Joy from that moment, People think herpes is really a minor skin irritation herpes has a long term effects on health and if i could ever meet a Genuinely Great Herbal Doctor.

    Setrap Chen is a wrathful protector deity in Tibetan Buddhism, particularly revered in the Gelugpa tradition. Setrap is believed to be an emanation of Amitabha Buddha and is known for his fierce and powerful appearance. Setrap’s wisdom is unmatched. He sees through the illusion of samsara and knows the best ways to help us .
    Even Though this is an old post , happy for Liew & family that have purchased a stunning Setrap statue from Kechara Paradise outlet.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Mount Emei, built in the 1st century CE, is a 3,099-metre-tall mountain in Sichuan Province, China. It is the highest of the Four Sacred Buddhist Mountains of China an area of great cultural significance. That’s where Buddhism first became established on Chinese territory and from where it spread widely through the East . Worth visiting this UNESCO World Heritage Site a scenic mountain area which includes over 70 temples, monasteries, and attractions. Emei Shan said to be inhabited since 10,000 years ago according to historians. Visited this awesome mountain years back, seeing it for myself those ancient Buddhist architecture on Emei shan.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Sasquatch, also known as Bigfoot, is a legendary creature said to inhabit forests, mostly found in the Pacific Northwest region of North America. As described by eye witnesses as a large, hairy, humanoid creature, often reported as being taller than the average human, and covered in dark hair. While many believe in its existence, but there’s no definitive scientific proof. Bigfoot is a figure deeply embedded in the folklore of North America. Despite numerous reports and alleged evidence, there is no conclusive scientific proof of Sasquatch’s existence. Many sightings of these hairy creatures yet no one ever getting close to it . Tibetan high lamas have reported seeing Yetis or bigfoots. Never been doubt these extraordinary creatures do exist as Tibetans, Nepalese, and others believed. Interesting .
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this.

    One of China’s most capable rulers, Kangxi who laid the foundation for a long period of political stability and prosperity. Emperor Kangxi was the second and longest reigning emperor of China’s Qing Dynasty whom had instrumented in developing China. From ancient times, blessed manifestations have taken place at Wu Tai Shan. Kangxi sponsored many literary works, monasteries, monks and teachers all over China, Tibet and he was considered extremely modern for his day as he also gave religious freedom to all religions. Many emperors considered Wutaishan as a special place, and built many temples. It is associated with Manjushri and is one of the four sacred mountains of China. It is also one of the five Buddhist blessed places on earth. Wutaishan holds a very special place in the more than 1,000 years of Buddhist and Chinese history. Manjushri embodies the perfect wisdom of the universe. China is considered to be the Land of Manjushri where the people are blessed with intelligence. Many of the historical and miraculous stories of Wutaishan are recorded in history. From the Ming Dynasty until modern times, magical manifestations have continued to be reported in Wutaishan. Emperor Kangxi was known to be a great patron of the Buddhadharma and had visited Wu Tai Shan and its Gelug temples a number of times . Great masters believed Emperor Kangxi to be the reincarnation of Tulku Drakpa Gyaltsen and an emanation of Manjushri, which has been confirmed by many others. Interesting read indeed, would love to visit this holy place again.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Ani for this great sharing.\\

The Unknown

The Known and unknown are both feared,
Known is being comfortable and stagnant,
The unknown may be growth and opportunities,
One shall never know if one fears the unknown more than the known.
Who says the unknown would be worse than the known?
But then again, the unknown is sometimes worse than the known. In the end nothing is known unless we endeavour,
So go pursue all the way with the unknown,
because all unknown with familiarity becomes the known.
~Tsem Rinpoche

  • What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    8 years ago
    What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    Sick animals are more profitable... farms calculate how close to death they can keep animals without killing them. That's the business model. How quickly they can be made to grow, how tightly they can be packed, how much or how little can they eat, how sick they can get without dying... We live in a world in which it's conventional to treat an animal like a block of wood. ~ Jonathan Safran Foer
