rather than sit on his couch and watch tv all day atleast he has something to do

Ha

needs motors

A bit more of tech and he can automatize all the sliding doors . Create profiles and ambients. Imagine a full tech integration in such an interesting eviropment like that house...

@@iamf6641 life is motion and its good especially when you are old.

It will be impossible to find the other!😂😂

the kid will died

the kid will be grown up when they got found out..

It is imposible to take a bath lol

You'd need to get loads of friends because they'd die before you find them xD

It's for ecology, don't u understand anything.. Lawl xD at this point he could have burried himself underground it'd have been easier to get out

It's normal, once you adventure past the living room is a whole new world, never explored before xD Like Narnia but even invading species from Narnia would never find a way out the house

It's better that way, atleast they haven't reveal the magic to any potential burglars watching this video...

Too funny

The burglar will be emprisoned in the bathtub and will just have pulled the sliding trap thingy onto himself xD Betcha every burglar must know about this house !

Hard work is to do ath for themselves in positive not to keep eye on others hard earned money

He was showcasing his design dumb ass , You change them depending on the time to get the suns light instead of using lights

Haha

Great minds think alike!

i think in some piece of wood is an money and diamants , the question is where the piece ist ;D top bottom wall or in the chair table ...

Where am I ?

@@memonavaramirez6261 In the grave. Like all the others who never slided their doors.

ColtraneTaylor :shook

Where is the bathroom?

Opposite to minimalist architecture

Its one thing campaigning to keep someone from building a house next door, but once its built youre not going to be an asshole. Youre going to introduce yourself, shake his hand and pretend you werent against it from the start. Human nature.

www.designcurial.com/news/richard-murphy-house-by-richard-murphy-architects-5800970 .. at least gives you a bit of cross-section

Uhm did u watch till end? The camera man did zoom through almost the entire house at the end.

"and I said, I am Richard Murphy, I invented the Murphy bed."

he slid some cash under the table that was hiding under his bathtub.

@@innomind William Lawrence Murphy (1856-1957) the original inventor of Murphy Bed

Maybe he is planning to move at 81

He'll probably develop high strength in really uncommon muscles from pulling, turning and switchings all these levers, doors and traps xD

Like fingertip muscles, large shoulders and neck but no other muscles xD

it a small area... the bathtub clearly made for when he need hot bath not shower... i seen bath and in the bed frame before so.....

How to devaluate the word "masterpiece". It's a funny house, planned by a man for his own usage. I wouldn't pick that house over a more traditional one. But considering how contemporary architecture has been following twisted ideas for a while now, I guess it's not that bad.

Modern hotel room design does not only put the bathtub in the bedroom, but the shitter, too. Of course what they call design is more of a cost-saving measure. Funny story: in a close-by hotel you have to get the 'classic' room to have the WC apart from the bedroom.

Really bad Feng Shui

namulit emperor I’ve never seen this in any hotels

priorities mate

There is one, he just don't want you to 'venture inside the house. Past the bathtub is an unknown path to mankind. Legend says a guy died searching for his phone, he was a guest.

What he doesn't tell you is that his house is like an iceberg, the house you see is only a fragment of what his invention is xD

@@MrGeoffrey1998 Hahaha brilliant reply!!

Saves on gym membership, lol.

Each time a new comer enters his house he is asked if he has mental and health issues, then he gets the *traveler's backpack*, a 42 pages maps and gets notified they cut the whole amazon rain forest just to make that map. XD

@Andreya Takhellambam i'll really laugh when he'll need medical treatment, he'll probably have to call indiana jones or learn self surgery else he'll never receive help xD

@Andreya Takhellambam medics : "sir we heard you seek medical assistance but can't seem to find you" Architects : "i'm in the closet that's under the bathtub when you walk on the pressure plate next to the horizontal bookshelf"

@@andrefilipe9042 xD

Charles Fredericks Cheers!!! Or maybe they let him play with everything, disassembling, and assembling

Yeah, Lego !!! Like most of my siblings 😂

people don't like change, but sometimes change is good.

Not at all. The color and the way the facade is broken up to resemble the other houses on the block integrates this design extremely well.

So true. I was surprised how well it integrates with the other houses, unlike much of modern architecture that insists on a jarring distinction.

cultural preservation

Regulations regulations regulations. I once blew up renovation of a house because government was too much of a problem. Maybe they expected to get money shuffled under the table.

In Germany there is something called "Bebauungsplan" (Building Plan) that is decided by the local authorities and gives precise information about the colour, shape etc. a newly build house may have. It also considers things like the shape of the roof and so on. Pretty German. Where does it lead to? All German cities look just plain boring. All houses look greyish or have a very light colouring (like a grey-blue or vanilla yellow) but in the end it gives you depressions, especially in the dark months of winter. It is so refreshing to see the colourful and way more aesthetic architecture in the southern countries. But if you try something outstanding in Germany it would be refused. NO COLOURS. JUST ARBEITEN.

@@KeekusuNa ja nach gewisser Zeit gibt es Schimmel. Da hilft keine helle Farben.

it is his house in middle of city.... would you let everyone had tour of your house layout and entry and back exist? thief would had easy time...

They like the colours grey and brown and on a human being red or white.

The British didn't get angry at the building,he said that some of the people in the area weren't happy and the area is Edinburgh which is in Scotland which means the Scottish people there where "angry" The only British person was the architect narrating the video who was pushing the idea

@@banaft1664 Ok, that's your view, but Scots and English are British. The English wouldn't be British all by themselves. I've lived in Scotland btw.

@@ColtraneTaylor 😂

@@banaft1664 I recognize that there is a difference but the cultures are similar enough for the rule to apply generally to most of the British isles. The United Kingdom does not like anyone tampering with their Georgian aesthetic.

you need to close it so it easy to cool in summer.. it still a small house so yeah i would like it that way... this a man who put a bath next to his bed so i doubt he care much about logic.... the house seem to be most testing design and prove of concept....

@@campkira Cooling in Edinburgh? lol Climate change isn't there yet. This year was the city's hottest day ever measured. And that was only 31.6C (88.9F). July is the hottest month in Edinburgh with an average temperature of 15°C (59°F).

Everything that is personalize is ridiculous for some.

Best description

"BOO"... KEEP your negative comments to yourself. This is a "Happy" video,

Same, if you're someone who wants to live in a house for aesthetic reasons then this is house is perfect. But if you're lazy af and is quite forgetful then you better live in a traditional house instead.

Tons of great architects were know for being ridiculous. so why not?

money and time....

for the ladys duh

For those special nights😁😁

That isn't a micro-bathtub. It is a normal sized. And why not? If you only take a bath a few times per year a "normal" location for the baththub would be a waste of space. That way it is out of the way, but you still have a bathtub.

@@Jehty21 except you're forgetting one very simple thing, who the FUCK only bathes a few times a year 🤦🏻‍♀️

@@ghjfkldsxzmkbfj I get what jehti was referring to A lot of tiny apartments around the world don't have bathtubs, they have showers

He could climb through one of the windows.

I fully agree.

it requires money and time which u probably wont have unless you are born into riches

@@heroninja1125 No money in it, unless your last name is Gehry.

I had the same question,

Yeah he is the one

I was thinking Murphy’s Law... LOL!

the same man who set the murphy's law

Good concept. But if you live in it. It'll be exhausting. That hidden bath tub thing? What a great place to culture some molds

Hahaha! Was just thinking about that, too, when I saw your comment! I concur! Cheers & mabuhay from the Philippines!

Maybe they didn't want the beautiful neighborhood to be interrupted by this monstrosity.

@@sskoh meh.... uk... which part of it is beautiful? just endless same fucking thing... made for cheap.... i living in japan and each build is different...

na... it is normal it is hard to get approved build design that different than other building in area... in other word you need a committee permission... which mean you need to do favour for them...

Clearly heritage architects. Others would be pretty open to the idea

@@Jay-jq6bl No, it's a Godsend.

Thank you! Indeed the interior is up to the individual person living in it, so everybody will put his own flavour itno his own 4 walls, don't you agree?

@@dweuromaxx Yes absolutely, as I said this house wouldn't work for me at all, as I like a much more organised and simple place. But anyone can see the huge amount of design and amazing workmanship that has gone into this house. Cheers.

In the german vision

gotta think outside the curtains

frankly i think the bath in the bedroom gave it house of the year. imagine waking up and waiting for the bathtub to fill while you still lay curled up in bed under the blankets. This guy's a genius!

No there are a lot of details that they didn’t even touch on that makes it house of the year. However I’m not sure I agree with the judgement, this house is stuck about 20 - 50 years in the past. I like it but not house of the year. Perhaps it’s his connections that gave it this position.
