strawbale straw building artist robbert van der horst

I get that its an art project, but maybe make something that is useful and artistic at the same time. Lots of resource and time I'm sure to get this thing up for just looks.  it's pretty, but make it do something real, too! why not?

I love this structure as a component in the art work as well as a viable barn/home. I like the idea that it is made of pipes (no lumber loss) with the bale in-fill.
My cousin built his straw bale using 3" used drilling pipe so his main structure is welded together and then has straw infill.
Thanks for the interesting sights and sounds.
