SOME SERIOUS SNAIL TRAIL…
There is a very good reason we do not live in shells, WE ARE HUMAN! Yet again, a human with too much money has wanted to see what it feels like to live like a snail - that old chestnut. Therefore, they have built their house (with the help of Senosiain Arquitectos) so that their house resembles a snails shell. It is pretty impractical - you have to go further and further spiralling into the house in order to get to some of the rooms - I would hate this, unless it was an open concept snail shell, I would burn it down and collect the insurance. And to be honest, I don’t really even like the look of it unless I had dropped too much acid and was going into a drug induced seizure and wanted to watch the sun rise in this shell-hell. Willy Wonka’s idea of a house, no doubt. The idea on paper - cool. In actuality - children are starving, build them a mud hut that they can live in - and for the price of this snail trail - you probably could have built enough huts to reside the entire population of Uganda. My favourite part of this blog is spewing forth names of countries I have done absolutely no research on - for all I know - they may live in high rise condos in Uganda, but I get National Gepgraphic - they don’t, plus I just checked google - they definitely don’t. I think Senosiain Arquitectos should begin building wealthy individuals houses that resemble the shanty’s of Uganda - there is something different for ya. To help, I have included pictures of the snail house and a Uganda Hut.
