The Fantastic Futuro House
6/9/2005

The Futuro house was one of the coolest "homes of the future" and one that actually saw production. Designed by Matti Suuronen, this fiberglass wonder was made for a brief period in the early 70s till the spike in oil prices (and hence plastic prices) killed the company. There are still a number of Futuros around the world and it'd be a dream to own and restore on. Till then, I'll just have to settle for sketching it.

The book "Futuro: Tomorrow's House from Yesterday" has a wealth of information and even a DVD with film clips of the home. A great book which can be ordered here.
