What is a future house? Have you heard of the spaceship houses that are “landing” here and there? The rare UFO-shaped homes are sometimes mistaken for art installations, but in fact, they are normal homes and people actually live in them.

 

The Design of the Futuro house

The most famous futuro home is a creation of the Finnish architect Matti Suuronen and was a portable ski chalet. The structure is lightweight and and fits in a variety of locations and landscapes. There are more than 100 futuro homes built between 1968 and 1978.

So, the design and the idea are not new. The houses were intended to be mobile made from fibreglass-reinforced with polyester plastic and stilt legs that ensure they stand lightly on the terrain.
Although futuros stopped being built they remain an important part of modern history.
