For more than thirty years, Louis Le Roy has been working on an enormous structure in a meadow at the Friesian settlement of Mildam in the Netherlands. There, on a two-hectare site, he piles up with his bare hands paving bricks, paving stones, kerbstones and other discarded street rubble while allowing nature to proceed about him unhindered. Le Roy calls this fascinating jungle populated by large stacked edifices an Eco-Cathedral.

a couple thousand years from now there are going to be some really confused archeologists.
Today there are many confused architects coming to visit the ecocathedral. Architects who don’t know how to build anymore, but only design buildings on their computer. Le Roy (and his pupils) works TOGETHER with nature, and learns a lot from it.
