Over time David Hertz and his team at Studio of Environmental Architects will be making use of the whole 747 plane including the wings, the fuselage, and cockpit to build not only the main house, but also guest quarters, a meditation pavilion, a barn and an art studio. The 747 Wing House, the main residence, was the first to be completed. Inspiration for using the metal behemoth came from the property itself, which was formerly owned by costume designer Tony Duquette, who built more than 20 structures from found objects on the 55-acre property.

Nope, that's just weird.
I don't mind looking at it, but I'm sure I wouldn't want to live in a cage of metal and glass.

Tho There does seem to be a wooded area further on up the hill, in the trees.
But then you'd be looking at that all the time.

eta: U know I think if my neighbours built something like that.
I'd sneak down there at night and plant Kudzoo
