Reminds me of the Mushroom House in Canada somewhere (I think). You can find it on google if you search Mushroom House.

And even though he’s no architect, or even a construction worker, together with his father-in-law and the help of passers-by, Simon managed to build this amazing <STRONG>Hobbit House</STRONG> in just 4 months. Believe it or not this baby only cost around 3,000 pounds to build.</p> <P>Though it looks absolutely incredible, aesthetics were not Mr. Dale’s primary concerns. He tried to make his dream home as environment-friendly as he possibly could and hopes he set an example for others. Simon Dale and his family actually moved into the <STRONG>Hobbit House</STRONG>, but they are not stopping here. Their next project involves building nine other similar houses in Pembrokeshire, Britain.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5;
