@coolboymew There is an Icelandic short film called _Nest_ about some siblings (the director's children, actually) who build a house pretty similar to that, but much less overengineered.

Now I wonder if building houses above the ground like that is a thing and what is the reason for it.

@josemanuel Common for fishing houses, because of the tide, however no clue for this
@coolboymew @josemanuel in crazy snowy areas people build houses on stilts so they don't get trapped inside by snowfall

@coolboymew @All_bonesJones All your responses (including @moth_ball's) make perfect sense and I thank you for opening up my perspective on life.
