From the time people around the world have become environment-conscious, we have got to see so many different kinds of products made from recycled things. However, none of the products were as amazing as this house that has been built with the help of recycled parts of thousands of cars. Designed by architects Karl Wanaselja and Cate Leger and situated in Berkeley, CA, this house is an example of the most Eco-friendly home till date.
House made from car roofs & windows
The creation of this house has saved our planet from an unimaginable amount of waste, because all its parts have been salvaged from old and destroyed cars. The maximum number of parts have been got from old Dodge Caravans. You will also be fascinated to know that after collecting all the materials from the junk, the architects have put them together in a very creative way so that the house remains comfortable for the people living in and around it. The car panels in different shades of grey have been used to make the sides of the house. The light and the dark shades of the panels have been put together in such a way so as to resemble the fins of a fish. The lighter panels have been mostly used in the north side of the house to reflect some light toward the neighbors. The non-tinted side windows of the cars have been used to make the awnings. The fence has also been made using other parts of the cars.
