An intriguing example of such a house is the almost finished Steel House by the artist Robert Bruno. The house build near the city of Lubbock in Texas.
It sits on the edge of a cliff, overlooking the lake. Bruno spent 23
years building this strange home that looks like a giant pig out of 110
tons of steel! Like the exterior, nearly all of the interior will be
exposed steel. Bruno will use leaded glass for windows and clear glass
for views of the lake below. A glass elevator with a glass ceiling will
soon run up the middle of the house, treating its occupants to a 45-foot
upward view. Plans include two bedrooms, a living room, a dining room,
multiple bathrooms and numerous closets.
This monument is, in fact, the world’s largest basket, and it’s also the seven-story corporate headquarters of the Longaberger Basket Company. The basket is a replica – 160 times larger – of Longaberger’s Medium Market Basket.
It’s 192 ft. long by 126 ft. wide at the bottom, spreading to 208-ft. long by 142-ft. wide at the roofline. It is a magnificent sight – especially at night.
