A church built from live trees
Barry Cox , decided to build a church with live trees, as expressed: “I left home through the back door and I thought: that place needs a church,” so Cox began building the building with trees in April 2011.The location was near Cambridge, in New Zealand, the same location where it I record the famous triology of "The Lord of the Rings."
To begin with, the walls were created with an Australian tea tree , thanks to its thick foliage and its color that is similar to that of the stone, I recreate the environment that the space required.The interior of the church was decorated by a lot of trees and flowers , like birches, roses and camellias.For about 4 years, Barry Coz managed to make his dream come true and today he can boast a live church, which breathes and continues to grow, with capacity for more than 100 people.
Barry's main idea was to reserve the church for his own use , have a secluded and quiet place to meditate, but I can not resist the request of his nephew who asked permission to marry in the tree church.Then, other relatives, friends and partners outside they enjoyed this temple for a few minutes, so the artist decided to give in to the proposals and end up opening the church to the public .He has even created a website to present it.
And you? What do you think of this story? Would you create a house or any other building with trees? If you found it interesting, you can also read «The most terrifying churches in the world».
