Homes for Soccer Maniacs
Filed in archive Design on April 4, 2006
Are you a freak when it comes to security and environmental disaster?
You are scared of flooding, earth quake and all possible disasters which are out there?
Or are you a soccer maniac? Your whole world is all about the leather? The world seems to stand still and you are counting hours until the World Cup starts?
Now you wonder what a soccer fan and a security freak have in common?
Look at the Soccer-ball shaped house "Barier" and you will find out!
The Japanese company Kimidori Kenchiku has constructed homes shaped like soccer balls. It is not the deisgn we probably feel amazed about (sorry Soccer fans) but the unique features like the homes are resistant to terrorist attack, natural calamities and the like.
They are claimed to be:
1) floating on the water - the whole surface is watertight
2) As its 32-sided, rigid surface distributes force, it is in structure strong with an earthquake
3) strong with all disasters like snow, hurricans, tsunamis etc - (the imagination alone is horrible!)
Oh that is nice windows can be installed wherever we like. We can also choose from different seizes which are similar to convenient residential barrier 3SL size car and it includes a mini-kitchen, a bed, a kids and karaoke room (!), 15-inch LCD TVs and a private office or showroom and even more....
Would you buy one?
