Currently Hopelessly In Love With…. Electro^Plankton

Ok, hopelessly may be pushing it. It’s not like I’m sending them stalker letters or visiting them first thing of the day. That said, I do really, super, very much adore this blog. It’s not an architect blog, more a smattering of stuff – mostly wicked cool stuff.
I don’t know why, but lately I’ve been stretching out from my usual feast of architect and green blogs, and while I was doing so, one blog I found happened to be Electro^Plankton. It was a good find though, because look at this stellar house they have posted:

It’s not so much a house as it is a chapel, but it’s weirding me out. Mainly because they note that it’s, “Off highway 1 in California” yet I never saw it. Was I in a complete fog in California or what? Maybe. See another picture of this hat-like abode.
They also have this item below, which I don’t like at all – but it is Offbeat material. I thought it might be fun to guess at this one. First take a look:

Can you tell what this item is? Before you look. I knew what it was, but for a few minor seconds, I had this feeling it was something else – what does it look like to you? Don’t cheat.
In any case, you can visit Electro^Plankton to see more of the strange and slick items they feature: I suggest you start with the following posts – perfect Offbeat Homes what not…
- If The Doorknob’s A-missin’, Don’t Come A-knockin’
- Artlebedev Defendius Door Chain – this post is too cool – go see.
- The Cell Toilet
- OMG Billboard Homes!

The chapel is by architect James Hubbell:

A brilliant organic architect in San Diego.
Thanks for that link Eric – very cool. The structures at that site are stunning. Also, now I know why I missed it. Somehow I gathered that it was further north, not in the San Diego area. I wasn’t in a fog!
