He can huff and he can puff as much as he wants, but the big bad wolf definitely won’t be able to blow down a house of concrete.
Designed by Spanish architect group A-cero, the Concrete House II is located just outside of Madrid. The outside walls are made of dark gray concrete and built with strips of grass between them to create the illusion that the house is actually part of land. With an indoor spa and swimming pool, home theater, wine room and parking garage, the Concrete House II is a luxurious retreat. Even some of the modern decor and furniture appears to be made from concrete!

A-cero’s blog tells us that the Concrete House II is a single story home that measures at 1600 square meters, which is about 17,222 square feet. Imagine living in a space that big. It would be great for a good ol’ game of hide-and-seek…
So what do you think – would you live in the Concrete House II?

The Carpet by Laurens van Wieringen was constructed from many little “foam-bars” in different colors and heights. Together these foam bars show an image of a landscape in color and a relief in height, kind of like a topographic map. Laurens worked with the help of 29 friends to put together the carpet. © 2010 Design Milk | Posted by Jaime in Home Furnishings | Permalink | 1 comment | Tweet This | Share on Facebook

I’ve seen some unique rugs in my day, but this sure has to be one of the most original. The Shoelace Rug is indeed made from shoelaces, and is the work of Nate Siverstein and Andrea Paustenbaugh. It certainly adds a unique focal point to the room and you’re sure to be the only one of your friends to have it. Maybe a bit much for a living room, but I think it could look cool under a desk in a modern office or perhaps in a small dining nook.
That dog sure looks cozy, but it might make your cats a bit crazy!
