Ultimately, to return the forests of Indonesia to the mountains, where they should be. To build the houses for our use, we have been gifted recycled wood, old teak from the Dutch era, when the forests abounded with umber treasures that hopefully one day shall return to the surface of the earth, but may not. This a true privilege, thus a great responsibility, so we have had to learn a touch or two of design along the way. Fortunately, my father was a good teacher of the eye, and the level of craftsmanship in Indonesia is still high. Herein, an erratic plot of our attempts, mixes and matches we have found along the way.

a little action of what has been going on, side structures amongst the trees
All amidst a very busy mess of scaffolding to uphold people, pillars, and tools...will be very nice, I think, when its all cleaned up and covered...
