Don't walk in there after drinking too much. It's making me dizzy and I haven't had a drop.
Glad to learn I'm not the only one whose stomach lurches a bit at that photo. Also, the darker tile in front of the sink looks like a puddle. Or an accident.Don't walk in there after drinking too much. It's making me dizzy and I haven't had a drop.![]()
It's a water fountain. I should have mentioned that.What is it?
Almost unbelievable!The Invisible House is a reflective building that mirrors its desert surroundings.
The Invisible House is a mirror-clad home designed to look like a New York skyscraper flipped on its side. It is covered in heat-reflective “Solarcool” glass to mirror the surrounding remote desert of its site, located 10 minutes from downtown Joshua Tree, California.

Designed by architect Tomas Osinski and Chris Hanley, the LA-based producer behind American Psycho, the Invisible House is situated on 90 acres. The 5,500-square-foot building, completed in 2019, is made of concrete, steel and tempered glass.

The 100-foot indoor pool is a standout feature in the one of a kind home.

Thanks to sliding doors, many of the walls can open up.

The designers conducted a biological survey to map out the native flora and fauna before beginning construction, and the Invisible House has a landscape-to-dwelling footprint of 2,000 to one. Low-emissivity glass in the walls and photovoltaic panels on the roof help further reduce the environmental impact of the home. According to the owner of the house, the local birds have been thriving on the insects around the property and have not been harmed by the reflective glass nor have they flown into the building.

Well, we know it's on 90 acres, 10 minutes from downtown Joshua Tree, Ca. I dunno, but you seem like a pretty adventurous and resourceful guy. I'd bet you could find it.I would love to see that. But I imagine it could be hard to find.![]()
I'm pretty sure I saw this house on one of the home shows. It may have been the Netflix show where 3 young people travel around staying in budget, mid-range and luxury house rentals. I forgot the name of the show and don't have Netflix right now. But I enjoyed seeing their choices.The Invisible House is a reflective building that mirrors its desert surroundings.

Magnificent colors coming in through the stained glass!These three photos are from "The Snake House" in Naucalpan de Juárez, Mexico. I'd seen it on Extreme Homes and at that time I believe a family lived there. It is now an Airbnb. @RadishRose, the same architect designed this house as the Nautilus house that you posted.
