If you have nothing to hide and enjoy the sunlight, Japanese Transparent House will probably suit you. Created by Sou Fujimoto Architects, this house was inspired by our ancestors who lived in trees. The building defies the conventions: the walls are see-through as if they are made of glass. On sunny days the house is flooded with the light. The inhabitants have to make an effort to escape from the sun as well as tourists' eyes. A sci-fi fan Tony Alleyne has spent 10 years of his life and thousands of pounds to turn his flat into the bridge of the Star Trek Voyager spaceship. The property is absolutely unique. The flat has been remodelled to include even the smallest details of the movie series. It exactly replicates the interior of the spaceship. Van Bo Le-Mentzel, an architect from Berlin, has made a 'house' that is only one square metre big. It's a wooden structure which can be used as a dwelling place, mobile kiosk or even an extra room inside your flat. Because of the flipping mechanism, it can be used both vertically or horizontally. Can you imagine being in a house where everything is turned upside down? The Upside Down House stands on its roof. Visitors walk on the ceilings there. The house was built by a Polish philanthropist Daniel Czapiewski as a statement about the end of the world. It certainly attracts its fair share of tourists to the tiny village of Szymbark, who often become dizzy after just a few moments inside. If you want to irritate your neighbours, the Skinny House is a wonderful idea. It is located in Boston, the USA. The Skinny House is the narrowest house in the city. There is no clear evidence to support the reason of its construction. However, according to a legend, one of the neighbours built it to block the sunlight and ruin the view of another neighbour.
