The Return of the Futuro Home

 The Futuro Homes were one of the coolest architectural inventions in history. They were designed to be a second vacation home where they could be set up in the high mountains or on beaches etc. Only a 100 were produced because they became to expensive to build when fuel prices skyrocketed in the early seventies and put a damper on them. Somehow I think they should make a comeback in a resort context or as 2nd homes as well again.

The Futuro House came equipped with a bathroom, a kitchen, and the chairs in the living room converted into beds.

Here is the small kitchen which had a sink and small range. It would have microwave now also:

There is also a picture of the tiny bathroom:

 In a resort context I think this would really be a draw for tourists. Getting to stay in a flying saucer shaped home is fun for the whole family and what is cool is they would work anywhere, any location, though I would prefer the beach or in an isolated desert or alpine region. That is the idea for September.
