Crystal House

Bogdan — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 15:28:13 +0000

Actually, it’a a house covered in glass. I think the only problem for this house is.. privacy. Just look at the picture with the bathroom. It has a full window open for streetview, or for insideview, depends on which side of the house you are

Luxury Cove Daybeds

elutzik — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 10:36:00 +0000

If you have a big yard, or even a pool, you definitely need to have outdoor furniture, including a bed where you can relax in the sun while you drink a cocktail. I think I’ve found the perfect thing for you: an outdoor bed which can accommodate up to 7 people. Each model is manually produced and is composed of strong resin weave, which is woven onto the powder coated aluminum frame.

This particular model is available here, and if you don’t know what to do with 5000$, I say go for it.

Home decorated with blackboards

Bogdan — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 21:27:58 +0000

If you ever wanted to decorate your home with blackboards, this example is great for the “note freaks”, or for families with kids, that can write with chalk instead of markers on furniture, walls and cabinets.

You can forget about the fridge magnets, hundreds of post-its or notes left on the breakfast table. Just think about it, you can left a message everywhere you want! A big “REMEMBER” in the kitchen, a eye catching “Pay the bills” on the wall, a big wallpaper with the Family portrait drawn by your son/daughter in the living room.

House built from recycled materials

Bogdan — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 14:17:33 +0000

This awesome house was built only from recycled materials. As you can see in the pictures, it has a small wood bridge, that takes you to another house tree.

Another cool thing is the wall covered with broken mirrors that creates a strange effect of huge space (don’t be fooled).

The ceiling looks amazing on both sides, interior and exterior. Outside it looks like it’s waving or it’s made of rubber.

These cave homes are located in Kandovan, in the North East of Iran, at the border with Azerbaijan, and are supposed to be over 700 years old.

The house are built in the Mount Sahand, a volcanic mountain. Most of them have two storeys: one for the animals, and one for the people to live in. If the house has more than two story, the last ones are used for storage.

If you want to visit this village, you can find there a five star hotel, built in the mountain.

Toilet-shaped house

elutzik — Sat, 23 Jan 2010 14:25:15 +0000

The toilet may be Al Bundy’s favorite room, but he didn’t turn his house into a huge toilet. Still, the chairman of the organizing committee of the Inaugural General Assembly of the World Toilet Association, Sim Jae-Duck thought it would be a good idea and even made it happen. The Toilet-Shaped house is in fact named Haewoojae, which signifies in Korean “a place of sanctuary where one can solve one’s worries“. Built in Suweon, south of Seoul, this strange house is very imposing compared to the other villas in the area, with a surface of 4,508-sq-foot. And if that wasn’t hilarious enough, Sim Jae-duck is letting patrons rent the house for an absurd $50,000 a day.
