L o r d R a j: Dinosaur Head Shaped House … Why?

Thursday, April 4, 2013

The rounded forms of this house near Stuttgart by German studio J. Mayer H. conjure up images of a dinosaur's head with big eyes and bared teeth

Hmm… Some may call this 'creativity'. I don't.

Surya Murali said...: The house looks quite nice and more importantly it looks practical... If you disregard that it looks like a Dino head. Enough surface area to catch heat or cool off and sloped and curved to stop snow pile up.
That it looks like a Dino head is secondary... Maybe not to the designer though. :-); April 4, 2013 at 9:01 AM
L o r d R a j said...: I really wouldn't know about all that BUT, I am sure all of that could have been accomplished with a more... err... NORMAL design structure.; April 4, 2013 at 9:04 AM
Surya Murali said...: Yes... It would also be boring and like every other house.
This way it is easier to give your address... the house that looks like the dino head. :-) Also, it kind of shows off a personality... a sense of humour and maybe a love of palaeontology!; April 4, 2013 at 9:09 AM

Surya Murali said...: Of course, each to his own. A residence is a personal expression. I guess it hardly matters (to others) what someone's house looks like as long as the owner is pleased with it.
A public piece of architecture on the other hand is a different matter.; April 4, 2013 at 9:18 AM
