Okay, it's http://www.simondale.net/house/]A Low Impact Woodland Home... but it sure seems like a hobbit-hole.

Clever concept and very Earth-friendly, I suppose. But somehow the look of it gives me the creeps and I'm not completely sure why, although the word
"organic" keeps playing through the back of my mind in a very negative way. Yes, I know I'm organic too, so that
doesn't make much sense, but there it is.

Seems like you'd have tons of bug problems, too.

However, both bugs and rotting are organic, so they're features of the house.
Or something.

You don't need permits if they can't find you! http://www.undergroundhousing.com/structures3.html
I took a tour of an underground house once, quite as a tomb is probably the best description.
