egg house

Why eggs? Why not? In my opinion, a more natural form in nature does not exist. Rounded is the most functional - so to speak. Even in ancient times, the Greeks built round shadows, and the Mongols - yurts, these ancients knew what they were doing. No wind will destroy such a construction.

Today, our homes, of course, are not so dependent on the elements, but a new concept has appeared - energy intensity. And the egg-shaped house is somehow connected with this concept.. We will not delve into abstruse theories, if it is simpler, then the rounding form requires less energy consumption, more flexible and durable, and no one has yet canceled snowfalls, hurricanes and earthquakes.

A photograph of this house, created by Belgian designers, already circled the entire Internet.

Their motto is mobility and functionality. As you can see minimalist mobile home It turned out pretty good, at least in the picture. Personally, I would not refuse to live there for a week.

Inside, also full optimization, resembles a space capsule.

But the British, too, are not sewn, a certain Stephen Turner from Hampshire picked up and built an egg-shaped houseboat. True, it took half a year to smuggle 40 pounds into his egg, but as a creative person, and Stephen is a professional artist, the house came to fame.

In general, things have gone. Practical Chinese could not miss this topic and the 24-year-old resident of Beijing, Dai Highway, thus solved his housing problem - he built an egg and began to live in it. True, without amenities, but next to the office where he works. And in another photo, this is Joel Allen’s house from Canada, he built it in the forest of English Columbia for the same reasons as Dai, but then he got so carried away with this business that he organized his own business.

Each house has its own story, but it will turn out a very long article, it’s better to just look at a selection of photos.

Here, the truth is not an apartment building on the left, but an office on the right, but it’s in an egg.

Here are interesting houses, in my opinion, they have no problems with leaking roofs.

And this is the famous Moscow egg on Mashkov Street, the creation of O. Dubrovsky and S. Tkachenko. To the right is a project from James Love Cybertexture in India.

This is grandiose, also an egg.

There are eggs at home in Berlin (the left skyscraper), and on the right the hotel in Dubai is egg-shaped, I just don’t know if it’s planned or already built :)
