Those people have decided to create something unique and something that you don’t see everyday and yet it is cheap and it is built from a recycled materials.
This house is one of the examples how home can be built without spending much money. This house has been built from a cheap recycled materials.
But those people are not just savvy they are also pretty creative, you can see how some of the walls, doors and roof are mosaic-like decorated. And when you look it inside it looks really nice and makes you wonder who wouldn’t like to live there. Surely, a reasonable house siding is needed to complete the beautiful house.

Someone had asked where the houses pictured are located, they are in Huntsville, TX. The man that builds them is named Dan Phillips. Some are rented to low income families. Others are specifically designed for various types of artists containing a room specifically for a form of art. When I lived in Huntsville I was lucky enough to visit a few of the houses and they are very detailed and creative. The pictures do not do them justice.
We as a society are so materialistic, and have to have the best of everything ,that we miss the natural beauty and simplisity in everyday items. Wouldn’t your home, your space mean more to you if it came from your own mind and hands? These people get it ! Their house’s do not have to look like they just came out of an Ikea catalog. Yet what they did with found, recycled items is gorgeous. Many of the items they used would have ended up in a land fill, (which by the way we are running out of space to bury our junk) These homes are pieces of art and will last for generations to come. I don’t know about you all, but I’m inspired!!
Wow that is really cool! It must have taken them a long time to collect all that material. Well if you guys are looking for an idea to make your yard safe for your children and only want to use Recycle materials then Rubber Mulch is the answer!

Like to know how to get planes to build houses/appts… thakk you Ralph Cornelius
wow! it’s amazing to see what you could do with inexpensive and recycle things. it’s giving back to nature and blending in with nature.
Hey these houses are awesome so cool
Some of these pics, including the first one of the tree house, is where I lived once. The one with the picture frame samples ceiling was the ceramics studio I rented from Dan right across from the treehouse. I loved living there, and Dan is a great guy.
It’s cool to see him get coverage and credit.
And yes, the buildings and houses are all in Huntsville, Tx, where I lived while attending Sam Houston State University.
Pretty cool, however, as a roofer, The pic of the roof is pretty shocking. recycling old shingles pretty much guarantees leaks within 5 yrs, and just the way they are applied is sloppy and prone to leaks
As interesting as this article is, I couldn’t get past the horrible grammar on this blog. Proofread, people!
