Remember the beginnings remarkable rural rebuild from last year? It may be rather hard to forget: 4.5 million plane parts (or: 400,000 pounds of airplane) were transported by truck and helicopter, then turned into a unique desert dwelling — a feat finally completed last month.
First the plane was sliced into major sections, then moved by the best means possible to its destination — a hilltop location in Malibu surrounded by sparse rolling landscapes, perfect for wing-shaped roof forms.
Designed by David Hertz Architects, the new buildings (a main and guest residence pair) use the wings, stabilizers and more to enclose and shape spaces.– via Dornob
