A Bridge Not Too Far

bridge-house_001When selecting a home for your island, one of the things that people have to consider is the topography of their island. Although modifications can be made, changing the topography of your island can be expensive and time consuming. Fortunately for those of us with hilly islands a new tpye of modular could help avoid this problem.

The bridge house floats on steel trusses that literally bridges the gap between two sloping hill sides.  The house which is pictures was built in Australia for $175,000  and made use of eco friendly material including a rainwater collection system and a photovolatic system.
