Concrete House



My brother Dan, who has his art studio upstairs, is a big fan of concrete. And so it seems is this architect. In the early 70s he saw this derelict concrete factory, and instead of thinking "this would make a cool house" and then going back to his boring office job, he actually made it into his house and office. Pretty damn inspirational!

  1. Ricardo Bofill and singer Paulina Rubio were a couple at some point, and she showed this house in an MTV cribs episode.
