The winner of the world’s best home award at this year’s world architecture festival went to the Klein Bottle house by McBride Charles Ryan. The unique holiday home is located in Australia’s Mornington Peninsula and features a living room perched on a canopy of trees. The house is inspired by its name, the Klein bottle which is a 19th century invention used to describe a form which has no distinguishable inside or outside. The design of the house celebrates the country’s traditional beach house and is definitely a sight to look at. The house is made from concrete sheets and black metal, which are both folded and twisted to create the angles. Equipped with all modern amenities, this house is both practical and useful.

An extraordinary design, it is no wonder this house was chosen as the best.
