Hobbit-Friendly Homes

This DIY Prefab Home Lets You Live Like a Hobbit

— November 25, 2015 — Art & Design
The Green Magic Home is a DIY prefab home that allows you to fulfil that Lord of the Rings fantasy that all of us have but few dare to admit -- the desire to live in a quaint little hobbit home.

These earth-covered homes are incredibly cozy and cute but also offer a range of practical advantages. The fact that they are covered with soil means that they receive great insulation, allowing them to stay warm in winter and cool in the summer. The window and door arches extend out from the sides, ensuring that soil doesn't rain down on you.

Prefab homes are growing in importance due to their versatility, eco-friendly workings and inexpensive nature. The Green Magic Home shows that prefab living can be enjoyable and even desirable. Indeed these structures could serve as permanent dwellings but could also make for great cottages and art studios.
