Unconventional Homes Make the Most of a Unique Space With spaces becoming limited and more emphasis on design, people are getting extremely clever with their home designs. There is also a force to be as eco-friendly and environmentally friendly as possible, while still having everything a normal house provide. These houses accomplish exactly that and are a sight to be seen, let alone to live in. 1. House Balancing on a Rock in the Middle of the Lake This house has been sitting on a rock in Serbia for over 45 years. Though it may not be an ideal location to live in, it’s a perfect resting spot for swimmers of the lake who need a place to rest comfortably. It’s remarkable to think that it has managed to balance itself in place all these years, surviving gusting winds and the potential dangers of water damage. 2. Hobbit House It boasts a number of eco-friendly attributes, which include: scrap wood for flooring, lime plaster (instead of cement) for the walls, bales of straw on dry-stone walling, a compost toilet, solar panels for power, and a supply of water acquired through a nearby spring. 3. Floating House The soothing mobile home is situated atop a buoyant platform that allows it to remain afloat in the water while minimally impacting the environment and offering scenic views of its surroundings. 4. Boeing 727 House The frame of a 1965 Boeing 727 has been incorporated into a home’s design in Costa Rica. Though its initial purpose was to transport people from South Africa to Columbia, it was salvaged and repurposed into a 2-bedroom suite. Its fuselage serves as a long interior lined with small windows to view the surrounding gardens and ocean. 5. Water Tower Home The multilevel apartment they’ve managed to construct at the center of the tower offers large windows, though it’s the actual water tank at the top that the duo have preserved (and upgraded) that boasts a 360° view of the city.
