This incredible home has been a labour of love for the intrepid family. “I think that if everyone fulfilled their dreams and did the things they were good at, the world would function wonderfully," Ingrid says.

"I believe there’s an intelligent design behind everything. Everyone is supposed to do their part, and what’s needed. I have devoted my life to permaculture. I want to show that it is possible to do whatever you want, even though no one has ever done it before."
