There are a number of architectural works scattered around the world that are about to eat this artistic discipline: from an acorn tree house to a beehive house or a home in the shape of a fruit. All of these projects were funded by Airbnb and its OMG! Fund program, which awarded 100 winners $100,000 each to design these sustainable and unusual properties, which will begin hosting guests in the summer of 2023.
Some of these properties, which have unique thematic concepts, evoke the world of gastronomy through designs inspired by fruits or tubers, transcending their functional essence to become works of art.
Beyond this year’s winning proposals, we present other buildings that were part of this same project devised by Airbnb in the past, such as the “Big Idaho Potato” hotel created by Kristie Wolfe or the floating Avocado House materialized by Ignacio R.. We expose below some of these chimerical designs sculpted in gastro key:
Acorn Bath: Peter C. Acorn Library
Himalayan fruit-shaped bedrooms by Arun M. (India)
Hansel and Gretel’s Chocolate House by Maria D. (Argentina)
Big Idaho Potato: Kristie Wolfe’s potato-shaped hotel.
Floating Avocado House of Ignacio R.
