The first building is small, made of large windows supported by concrete and plywood. A polished wood sign denotes it the visitor's center, and through the windows you see a guest book, updates, and a few brightly colored maps.

A convoluted house of cob, local stones, and bits of discarded glass is nestled in the shade at the forest's edge. Puple curtains edged with seashells chime in the breeze - this must be Julia's personal space. The house is full of life--her pets play around it, and inside is a clutter of photographs of family & friends, journals, a mailbox, and various lists.
|
Beyond lies an ornate marble building. One of the largest buildings here! The words Creativity Museum are etched over the door--this is a showcase of Julia's drawing, writing, weaving, sculpture, comics, computer games, music, and other works. Note that this building includes the Library.

The path curves down to the beach, where sits a crowded center for exploring the sea and the Dolphins & other mammals living within. You see dolphins playing outside of it now. Inside you discern SCUBA equipment and massive shelves of books, papers, links, and other resources.

A small castle, made of cob in a similar fashion to the house, overlooks the sea. A banner in brightly colored paint announces Education!, surrounded by question marks.
|
Beside the cob castle a green building full of green books. Yes, it's the Green Shopping List, a database of environmentally friendly projects
|
Scattered by the shore is a group of small buildings, surrounded by a humming cluster of symbols and sounds. It's The Language Complex Home of Hawaiian language lessons and the kikan conlang.
|
And finally, overlooking the sea, a wide round building with a maze of little rooms honeycombing the inside. Tiny projects and dilettante's resources, too short to merit much space, but still sparks of inspiration. Inside are places for entomophagy, fertility charting, astronomy and more.
