They decided not to cut the tree in their house and did this instead (Photos)

Designing a home is not an easy job. It requires careful planning and also proper survey of an area to make sure that the design of the house will not be affected by natural factors.

For example a design for a house on a sandy area can be totally different from a design on a rocky area. A certain picture has been doing the rounds on social media of a family that decided to build a house where there was a huge tree.

In most cases it would be proper to cut down the tree and build the house nicely. This particular family however decided to preserve nature and they built their house with the huge tree inside their kitchen area.

There were multiple reactions on this particular design with a lot of people totally against the idea. Most people were concerned about the fact that the roots might keep growing longer and would end up even damaging the house.

“This is pretty, but risky. The tree ain’t dead. If it was, it would start to decay. It’s roots would decay and the soil would sink to fill in those holes. That’s soil that’s supports the floor. Like I said, this is pretty. And pretty risky.” Said one of comments on Twitter.

Some people were however adamant that the tree had fully matured therefore there was no way its roots would grow big and destroy the house.

“Its eco and environmental friendly design why its so hard to get that. Its basic logic for healthier environment. You must watch most amazing houses on Netflix where they built a house on a forest without cutting any tree but incorporated the trees in the design.” argued another comment on Twitter.
