Watch That Tiny $74 1.5GHz Android-Powered Thumb-Puter In Action Kenneth Robinson, an American hero who found a loophole in the system to buy a $US330,000 house for 16 bucks, has sadly been evicted from his “house” because Bank of America claimed ownership of the property. Dammit. Does that mean there really aren’t any shortcuts in life?
What do you do when you’re an unemployed artist watching your country dive into financial ruin on the back of the euro? You craft a grandiose social statement about the whole thing of course. In the case of Irish artist Frank Buckley, that means building an entire domicile out of €1.4 billion ($1.7 billion) worth of decommissioned bills.
Simon Dale was fed up. He’d had enough of what he calls “mass-produced box design” homes so he did something about it — he moved his family to the Welsh countryside and hand-built a “Hobbit house” even Peter Jackson would envy.
I initially thought this apartment building, designed by Japanese firm Eastern Design Office, had an eating disorder. But really, the On-The-Corner house has a triangular wedge design that, when viewed at just the right angle, nearly makes it look two-dimensional.
