interesting houses

[Levi the Tile Guy]

just the one pic and I wouldn't want to live anywhere that I couldn't let the outside show that it was a home, but kinda cool anyway. I like weird architecture projects though.

so what do them links say. My computer doesn't get sound. Is that house really lived in? I do like the originality of it, but I don't like the looks of it.

there is an amazing book named 'fantastic architecture', first published in german, but available in english translation as well. these homes are indeed 'fastastic' and well worth a look at how the imagination can soar in homebuilding. homes that look like shoes (really) and others a giant face where you walk in through the mouth (windows as eyes), etc, but some more tame. look at the photo on the book cover - http://www.amazon.com/Fantastic-architecture-Personal-eccentric-visions/dp/0810909146 :bow: ya gotta have some fun in this world

They should build a detached garage shaped like a roll of toilet paper.
