			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Imagine a beautiful cottage with sage green rammed earth walls nestled amongst tall trees in a fern filled forest. That was the inspiration for the Fern Forest Cottage.  By using natural materials a design does not have to be complicated, the energetic qualities and feeling of wood and rammed earth are key features of the cottage.</p>
<p><img title="fern-forest" src="http://rammedearth.info/cliftons-rammed-earth-blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/fern-forest.jpg" alt="fern-forest" width="253" height="383" /></p>
<p>This picture is of the forest we had in mind, a temperate rain forest like that of the coast of BC, Canada or Washington in the US. Our models actually have different trees so you need to use your imagination.</p>
<p><img title="Fern-Forest-cottage-south" src="http://rammedearth.info/cliftons-rammed-earth-blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Fern-Forest-cottage-south.jpg" alt="Fern-Forest-cottage-south" width="383" height="287" /></p>
<p>This is the view of the cottage facing south, lot&#8217;s of glass for sun!</p>
<p><img title="Fern-Forest-cottage-Perspective" src="http://rammedearth.info/cliftons-rammed-earth-blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Fern-Forest-cottage-Perspective.jpg" alt="Fern-Forest-cottage-Perspective" width="383" height="287" /></p>
<p>A perspective view from the south east.</p>
<p><img title="Fern-Forest-cottage-south-e" src="http://rammedearth.info/cliftons-rammed-earth-blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Fern-Forest-cottage-south-e.jpg" alt="Fern-Forest-cottage-south" width="383" height="287" /></p>
<p>The view from the ground on the south east corner.</p>
<p><img title="Fern-Forest-cottage-east" src="http://rammedearth.info/cliftons-rammed-earth-blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Fern-Forest-cottage-east.jpg" alt="Fern-Forest-cottage-east" width="383" height="287" /></p>
<p>A view of the east side of the cottage.</p>
<p><img title="Fern-Forest-cottage-Floor-P" src="http://rammedearth.info/cliftons-rammed-earth-blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Fern-Forest-cottage-Floor-P.jpg" alt="Fern-Forest-cottage-Floor-Plan" width="383" height="287" /></p>
<p>The floor plan, a simple open concept layout with the kitchen/live/dine all along the south side. There is a masonry stove for heating along the west side of the living room. The master bedroom is generously sized with a walk in closet. A great cottage for a weekend retreat or even to live in year round.</p>
<p><img title="Fern-forest-cottage-tiles" src="http://rammedearth.info/cliftons-rammed-earth-blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Fern-forest-cottage-tiles.jpg" alt="Fern-forest-cottage-tiles" width="294" height="383" /></p>
<p>These are the beautiful tiles we had in mind for the bathroom, quite unique.</p>
<p><img title="tiles-fern-green" src="http://rammedearth.info/cliftons-rammed-earth-blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/tiles-fern-green.jpg" alt="tiles-fern-green" width="383" height="284" /></p>
<p>The roof would look great with green tiles similar to these or even a standing seam metal roof.</p>
<p><img title="fern-tile" src="http://rammedearth.info/cliftons-rammed-earth-blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/fern-tile.jpg" alt="fern-tile" width="287" height="383" /></p>
<p>A fern tile like this might look nice as the back splash in the kitchen or some other custom made tile.</p>
