Solvay Hut, Switzerland
There is a small hut hidden away on the side of the Matterhorn in the Alps, built specifically for mountaineers to use as a temporary shelter from the elements. It’s not a huge space, but it could accommodate 10 people if absolutely necessary. In the event of an avalanche or other injury requiring evacuation by helicopter, it also features an emergency phone line.
Falling Water House, Pennsylvania
The Falling Water House in Pennsylvania is literally situated on top of a waterfall and is ensconced in lush greenery, as the name would imply. The Falling Water House, built by the famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright, was not built with durability or safety in mind. Raising $11 million was necessary to correct the problems, such as floors that were too weak to support the structure and beams that cracked under the weight of the house.
