Hotel Costa Verde, Costa Rica
Unbelievably, this hotel was formerly a real Boeing 727 aircraft from 1965. One of the most strange, bizarre, and singular hotels in the entire world. Piece by piece, the salvaged airframe was moved to this location. On a 50-foot pedestal near the edge of the national park in Costa Rica, it was later put back together. The views of the jungle are extremely breathtaking from up there.

Mobile Aquatic Pod, England
The “Exbury Egg,” created by Stephen Turner as a personal experiment, was first meant to be an art installation but ended up being Stephen’s floating residence. The egg is pulled to its location by boat and is described as an ultra-minimal living solution. Its wooden exterior is intended to age over time and mix in with the marshes where it is located. The pod is a one-room living area with a rudimentary shower, hammock, and cooking equipment inside. To provide access, a detachable dock was placed into the egg. The ergonomic egg form is anchored by ropes and bobs slightly with the tide, giving it the perfect mobile floating house.
