Building a home must be for our needs, but not for our greed. Here we can see the real life example of Guruswamy, who has built a small home for himself with spaces for cooking, resting and meditation. This humble 200 sq. ft. home is enough for his needs. He has used most of the materials from the site itself – mud and stones. He has applied cow dung mud plaster on his walls using cow dung, mud and rice husk. This was derived from the traditional building methods seen and practiced by him, from the time he was young, around the villages of Tamil Nadu. The intention to live a life with a minimal impact on earth has helped him build a home like this. We can learn from him how thoughts and ideas of simple living are actually reflecting in the home, which he has made with his own hands for 3 hours a day in 2 months of time – a true owner’s build with recipe.
