Earthship Village Ecologies Escape From Economy Rationale
Imagine a home that heats itself, that provides its own water, hat grows its own food. Imagine that it needs no expensive technology, that it recycles its own waste, that it has its own power source. And now imagine that it can be built anywhere, by anyone, out of the things society throws away.
In 2009 the Association Entre Dois Rios, artists Christiaan Zwanikken, Geraldine Zwanikken, Louis Zwanikken and Patrice Aaftink in collaboration with a international group of dedicated Earthship followers started off with a prototype/ pilot Earthship on the property as a visitors centre, where people can get acquaintanted with the ideas and philosophies of the Earthship. The dream is creating a community with sustainable/carbon zero housing, with the possibility to experiment with new ideas, integrating art work and experimental kinetic design.
