This is the most amazing house ever! Artists & Architects Madeline & Arakawa Gins have built a Bioscleave House created to help people "maintain equilibrium." The house is made so that you use your body in unexpected ways, keeping you on guard at all times, and keeping you young with everyday challenges. The walls are painted in over 40 colors, there are jungle gym like lounge areas, rippled floors, oddly placed power outlets, multiple levels (so you feel like you're in two places at once), and an assortment of windows in different sizes. The house has some risks (have no clue what), so a waiver needs to be signed before entering, and children aren't allowed. It's going for over $2 million dollars and is oddly located in Long Island, NY. Friend and architect Steven Holl, says its purpose is "that you’re only as old as you think you are." Many say their work is meant to make you think in a way different from the "normal." Kinda like drugs. Haha.
Check here for more info and more pics on some of their other amazing projects. The video is a must see. The theories they have behind it is amazing. 21-7 is a new fan of the couple. But peep the apartments in Japan too, whaaaat! Crazy!
Peace Yal
