A house held up by book shelves. This building eliminates the need for multiple structures all working indipendantly. A multi talented structure - less material is required, that's cleaver design.

Why do we need walls?
How about a house built out of things we want and can use in the house.
What environment are we trying to create?:
- Why not jump to that rather than pushing on with standard developments?
-Similar to the bone marrow village => composite use form.
