"Wing House" takes repurposing to new heights

When you think of repurposed items what do you see? Hand made beauties like barn door desks or mason jar lamps? what the powerful trend of repurposing and an age of environmentally smart thinkers has shown us is that interesting and good looking projects have been reaching new heights, and I am talking sky high!


This beautifully designed home in Malibu was made almost entirely out of a 747 airplane's 4.5 million parts. The home features architectural wonders stemming from the use of the tail and wings, hence it's name Wing House, to construct the roof. The home also contains an art studio, animal barn, and guest house constructed from the plane's fuselage.

Cheers!
