The House to Touch the Wind: The Next Generation

The bamboo design team met in the pavilion at Harriet Island on this snowy winter evening to discuss plans for this year's event. Claiming that the construction of the bamboo house we have used for the last three years has become "too easy" for us, Peter unveiled his radical new design ideas for the House to Touch the Wind. He proposed that this year we build a yurt-inspired structure. Wind chimes will still hang in the house, but the new house will also include fabric design by Angie and possibly a new, interactive component.

It's hard to believe that this sky will be full of kites in less than three months!

The structure will be built on the ground in a sunburst pattern, then folded up.

Here's what the House to Touch the Wind looked like in 2008.
