Artist and architect Robert Bruno has been at work on his steel home
since 1974. Bruno has said that he wants the shape of the structure to
be somewhere between animal and machine. Most homes have an initial
skeleton that is built upon throughout the construction process, but
Bruno has approached this home like a sculpture, building it on the fly
and making constant modifications. Architect Peter Koliopoulos points
out that the four legs and cantilevered design minimize the structure’s
impact by not disrupting the earth as much as a typical home design
would have. Estimated weight of the structure is 110 tons.
