New homes to be built from 18 tonnes of recycled plastic

See the article for photos, etc :)

And the price? All yours, complete with bathroom, kitchen and plumbing, for £42,000 - although you will have to provide your own land.


It is fire, storm and wind proof and, being made of plastic, is naturally waterproof.


We estimate the life of the houses at more than 60 years and after that they are recyclable.


I think it's a cool idea!

Place du Canada, Montreal! (the right hand side building...many find it unique, because of the half-moon shaped windows. :)

I knew that boxy one (and kinda like it, too), but don't remember seeing that second one before, with the funny windows. Interesting building :)

It really is like a toy house, Stella! :)

I found the following one to be interesting; it looks as though it might collapse at any moment. :lol: :lol:

Oh, I know that one! I think it's in Poland, or in some other East European country.. It's like from a fairy tale :)
