Really cool. Kinda has a Gaudi meets Tolkien vibe to it.

I really like it except the halls: I feel like I'd be prone to injury.

Very cool, although as @brokencycle says, you'd want to be careful walking down those passageways!

Parts of it definitely do have a hobbit-hole vibe and some rooms also look cosy, which hobbits would certainly appreciate!

Didn't one of the French fashion designers (YSL, perhaps?) have a rather organic, bubble-like house in the south of France that was a bit similar to this?

The inside looks like many other houses or earthships, just with a higher class finish. I like the earth-sheltering, although that's not new either of course. Overall: very nice, except to the crappy camo finish on the exposed sections - I'd really prefer it it was more 'honest' here.

It's beautiful. I wouldn't say it was a tiny home - it's much bigger than that, but it certainly has a small footprint.

Agree that "tiny home" has a pretty specific connotation, and that ain't it.

That may be the most uncomfortable looking place I've ever see. It feels as though every time I put a pencil down it would roll off that table.

This is lefty's new vibe:

I like the exterior, but this picture ruins it for me. It looks like the house has fallen off the foundation on one side.
