@@Huebri I wouldn't necessarily say that money doesn’t mean anything to the owners of this house. Instead, i’m sure money plays a very important role in their life. They just have more money to use than what most of us are used to. Totally different level & class of reality for them than most. So let them enjoy it and express themselves as they feel fit.

I was fortunate enough to tour this house several years ago before the current owner bought it. AD does a great job in this video of capturing just how stunning it is in person. In the best way possible, the house is as uncompromising as it gets. Getting to experience it up close and personal was a privilege I'll never forget.

I was on a film crew when we shot a commercial at this property. There weren’t as many trees then. It was called “The Crankshaft house” when we were there. It was pretty cool, but also a bit “Cold”. We also learned that the house leaked like a sieve. But it’s only a 2 bedroom and the Kitchen was 60’ away.

Some aspects of this place feel more like a high-end office building, particularly the long corridors and enclosed walking bridge, but overall this is incredible, like something out of a '90s sci-fi movie. I love the thought of the main lounge's semicircular roof maintaining constant natural light as the sun moves, even if it does make it look like a turbine power generator.

This brilliant architect should be proud of bringing a far-reaching clients’ dreams and imaginations into reality. Control over this project must have been phenomenally accurate. Thank you for sharing the dream and outcome.

It's brilliant how the translucent panels of the main gathering area are positioned to follow the path of the sun. The room will always be lit, but not overwhelmed with heat. And with no echo. Genius.

When you're in a room you're in a room, when you're not in a room you're not in a room. If you're in nature you're in nature, when you're not in nature you're not in nature. This guy has a way with words.

*The house needed a roller coaster passing indoor and out door of the house woooaah!* 😅❤

As often as he cleans his undies

Certainly uniquely creative. Access panels to the infrastructure is neat. But.... yeah, all that glass to keep clean... I'd feel like I'm on display in an exhibit. And with all the walking required through the giant tubes - reminds me of a giant hamster tunnel/maze thing, but on a human scale. No mention of the price tag which is assumed to be sky-high, nor the heating/cooling costs. And the modularity and ability to move rooms around is interesting, but I can't remember the last time I wanted to do that. Wouldn't want to live there and become best friends with the window washers, but certainly one of a kind!

Being a car loving gear head, I keep seeing it as a turbo and crank shaft! Very cool architecture!!!

The elderly gentleman recounting the tale of this house is unquestionably the most exceptional architect I've ever encountered. The synergy between him and this space is truly remarkable, leaving me utterly mesmerized by its beauty, originality, and uniqueness!

This is one of the most unique an incredible houses I’ve ever seen.

Definitely need to see this house used more in films, such a beautiful and different aesthetic.

I think it looks like commercial building.

Love the design but didn't like the architect's commentary or the short amount of time the camera spent showing an area and then quickly changing to another area. I couldn't get a sense of being inside the space because it kept changing (maybe that's the whole point). Also, the footage of the architect going up or down the very large flight of stairs seemed to have been slowed down which exaggerated how unpractical it would be for many to be up and down those stairs all day. An escalator would break the magic and make it feel like a shopping mall. Beautiful but conflicting.

This must have been used in some movies. Does anyone know? As far as living here, I felt very uncomfortable the whole time he was explaining it. I love unique things, and modern homes, but this is something else. More like an airport or a hospital. I would be wondering if doctors were constantly watching me as part of some bizarre experiment. Would love to experience it in person to see if I feel any different.

I'll never understand people who comment "not home-y enough" or "not practical"... like yeah... that's not what they were going for...

We can only dream of this ever happening. By the time something like this becomes a thing, literally everything will be so unaffordable, and the only thing even professionals would be able to afford are single person pods, and dive into a metaverse.
