DWELL

I just love this...Don't You?

Anchored upon 11 piers, this home floats at the edge of the wooded park, nestled among the boughs and branches. On the east and west sides, decks outfitted with hammocks and swings jut out Swiss Family Robinson–style. http://bit.ly/L0UxU0

Standing atop the red cliffs
of Fish River Gorge in Australia’s Northern Territory, it’s difficult not to indulge in a fantasy of nature primordial. More than 100 feet below, fish are clearly visible in the crystalline water. Flocks of squawking white cockatoos soar through the riverine forest, and wallabies dart in and out of view. 

Beyond that: woodlands as far as the eye can see—and no sign of people. 

Happy Memorial Day
