The King of Siam Shelf is made by mOEbler. I like it as far as offbeat goes but do not like the color (good thing there’s paint) and can’t imagine what I’d do with those tiny extra spaces. How about you?

Offbeat Holiday Gift Guide: King of Siam

I have no idea what’s going on here. Unusual Life — a super keen oddball blog posted this a while back with no explanation. However, on the upside, I suppose if you built an entire city out of eggs that it would at least be biodegradable. Perhaps a little too much so. Still, it’s so slick. How did this guy do it? Maybe I’ll look it up. Better yet anyone know and want to tell me?

Wow is right folks. Do you think they’re real eggs? I’m guessing yes. 

Visit Unusual Life for more curiosities. In fact I’ll make it easy for you. Right now they have a Meat Cake and something I wish I’d seen first The Impossible Building which looks oddly like Legos on steroids.

Building With Eggs

Do I even need to say anything?

Freshome has the entire low-down on this house, more photos, PLUS a super slick video where you can see the interior (yup chairs on the ceiling). The video is, in my opinion a must see. You’ll learn that this house is not just some oddball creation or prop but a statement on the world. Seriously.

I technically found the house via The Home Rejuvenation Blog — a blog recently brought to my attention but I’ll discuss that more in the next post. My world today looks sort of like that house and I’d rather discuss cool blog news in a separate post.

So, could you live here? I get dizzy in those little crooked houses for kids at amusement parks so for me — no.

Ever Have One of Those Days?

Location: Tokyo

A private residence. The plans from the site of the home designer explain that the first floor is for the sons in the family, the second floor for the family living area (living room, kitchen, bath), and the third floor houses the studio and deck. Oddly the explanation of this home says that there is a “blue spiral shaped shower room on the first floor.” Which begs the question; was this picture taken from the inside or outside of the home? Is the “blue spiral” that thing we see right in front? At first I thought this was taken from the outside but honestly — I can’t tell.

Location: Hawaii

I’m gonna take a stand and say I like it. But it does sort of look like a tree attacked a poor defenseless house.

Location: Tokyo

This oddball is the Fuji Television headquarters building. It’s get this, 25 stories high and 410 feet tall. Strangely you can’t tell that from this picture. I assume I need to locate this said to be tall building and find some proof.
