Tree-ness House by Akihisa Hirata

Barbie loves to be in nature, because nature is the most authentic of places to be. Here’s a dream house that captures the essence of a tree.

Tree-ness House by Akihisa Hirata


The concept of the design is inspired by the shape of a tree; a central trunk supporting other pieces like the branches and leaves led the architect to create the Tree-Ness house.

The structure is comprised of concrete volumes that are stacked to form spaces that become terraces or spaces into which windows and planters are slotted.













Would you be like a tree in this house?
Barbie would!
Enjoy!

Time Travel with Andy Warhol: Burgers


Took the Time Machine to see Andy Warhol last night...




Andy was about to be filmed eating a burger as a part of some film he was excited about.


“Moni, it’s been too long! We are going to eat! Would you like a burger? They’ll bring you one too. I’ll make them.”





After I give a shrug, Andy instructs them to send the runner for a Big Mac because “McDonald’s is the most beautiful, Monica. Where is the McDonald’s? Don’t you think, Moni?” 


“Can’t I just have champagne?” I ask not feeling hungry.







As the director starts to send his runner for the burger, Andy immediately interjects, “No, never mind, I’ll take the Burger King and Moni will have champagne. Cheers!”
