Love this outdoor home theater - my dream is to have home movies to show at our house in the summer - and broadcast the audio on FM radio to boats anchored in Cozy Cove@

Spherical treehouses for sale from Free Spirit Spheres. At $500/ft for a fiberglass sphere, and $2,000/ft for a wooden sphere, these structures are NOT CHEAP. But they are very cool looking.
A sphere uses the minimal amount of material to enclose a volume - but people don't live in a "volume". These 10 ft spheres would likely have a bunch of unused space as compared to rectangular structures - not to mention having to custom fit furniture, etc.
I'd love to step into one to see what it's like.
(you can also purchase raw fiberglass shells for a DIY project).

Like our First National Bank building - this new apartment planned in Singapore doesn't look too safe - but very cool!

You must be Mike's friend before you can comment on this Fave.Hey Mike! Thanks for faving this. I've been looking at a rugged piece of property out in the mountains outside of Walla Walla and have been exploring options for housing on the site. Pre-fab designs like this are steadily becoming better designed and more beautiful. I'm totally sending these videos on to more folks...
