The word Kerterre is a Breton term that means “from the land.”
This ancient concept was brought up to date and adapted almost 20 years ago by a French piano teacher, Évelyne Adam.
The three-meter diameter domes are a call to live closer and connected to nature.
Those zen and minimalist shelter feature 100% natural and biodegradable but so resistant at the same time.
The Kerterre, Feng-Shui house is made of hemp, slaked lime, and hemp. Those materials mixed become stone and more resistant with time.
In contrast to urban sprawl and the concreting of everything that separates us from nature, it is a question here of integrating into it by disturbing the environment as little as possible.
Kerterre is affordable Feng-Shui habitats, which create space chi or qi, the energy of the universe.
The Feng-Shui Kerterre habitat reunites the five elements:
Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Like Yin and Yang, each ‘element’ defines themselves. Wood is used to make furniture. Inside the Kerterre, you are directly in contact with the earth, as you can choose not to add anything like the foundation and keep the soil alive, or you can either cover it with stone or other natural material, which will allow keeping the connection with the earth. Fire is used for eating and cooking. Water can be recover condensation, rain, from a nearby spring.
