in Enschede, the Netherlands, architects have a house built largely from recycled materials (specifically 60% of the elements.) Villa Welpeloo. The method is original in itself: the architects, apes have identified the location of the new bat, decided to use Google Earth to locate the abandoned buildings to 15 miles away. Result: they systematically collect materials to build around the proposed house. The virtual world has served as a tool for local planning :-)
