Amalia House

  • Posted by on April 29, 2010 in Architecture

    • Earth is increasingly being touted as the building material of the future, leading to a hot new architectural trend: grass houses.

    Designed by GRID Architects, the Amalia House in Styria, Austria joins the trend...sort of. The family holiday home is completely covered with artificial turf, highlighting the interchange between indoors and out.

    We may be taking the idea of "green" design a little too literally here, but this pre-fab home is too cool not to check out.
