REMARKABLE PLASTIC BOTTLE HOMES

Tomislav Radovanovic's house, Serbia



A retired Serbian maths professor from the town of Kragujevac, built a house entirely out of plastic bottles. It took five years and 13,500 bottles for Radovanovic to build his 60sq meter house.

Only the foundation of the property is concrete, and all other parts of the house, including the kitchen furniture and windows are made out of plastic bottles that he and some of his former students had been collecting for months.

Radovanovic stated that he will not live in the house, but will spent some time in the house since the bottles make great heat insulators (via).
