A Touch of Whimsy

After spending hours searching for pictures of the inside of the great pink sea snail, I found this:
The Nautilus shell house! This was built back in 2007 near Mexico City and is the next best thing (according to me) to living inside the sea snails shell. Mexican arquitecto Javier Senosiain wanted to make the owners feel as if they were living inside the shell of a snail. I think he may have been inside 8 year old me's head when coming up with this. Anyway I have decided this is the house I will purchase when I can afford to be an adult and buy a home.
Here are a few inside pics.







Apparently this home was commissioned by a couple who wanted to raise their children in a nature themed home... if only I could be their adult child and live with them.

  1. Wow. What a fantastic house! The interior is so trippy. I would love to be a child growing up in a place like that. It looks like a dream!
