Nature House

Structure Type: Government
Information: The city has been kind of busy this past weekend and will continue to be busy after today. As a result, we had to close the office down to keep things safe and inconspicuous. Too many people, you know? Al and the other interplanetary employees have been sent to a secure location for the meantime.

Paul was able to get the Work@Home network to work for a while in order for me to continue to publish data while away from the office.

This structure is often found on planets that have no synthetic material. It is constructed out of dying trees and other raw materials found in nature. The interior is baked clay and mud insulated with fat from wild animals. The windows and other small openings are strategically placed to allow maximum air flow. Spread throughout the building are little patches of grass and wild flowers that are encouraged to grow by the building’s caretakers. They are trimmed if they begin to interfere with the doors and windows. Older buildings built in this fashion are often overgrown with flora and will support a rich life cycle.
