Opting out of China during the most favored period, whether the decision is clever or not, Airbnb is undoubtedly the world's most toss-and-turn housing agency, and it has long become the number one choice for young people around the world to travel and stay.

The reason why it is so popular is also because it can help you temporarily "occupy" the earth's shocking buildings. But wherever the inn looks like this, it will be invincible, and the 500-story building is not so attractive.

OMG!

What use do I want this cement compartment to be!

From the "small business" 15 years ago to the global housing network today, from a simple "transit station" to a cultural base integrating offline activities, a love fund for vulnerable groups, and community building, Airbnb's tens of millions of listings not only allow travelers to have a richer and more diverse choice, but also allow people living all over the world and thousands of kilometers apart to share their own customs and cultures.

In order to meet the consideration of "travelers have their own tricks", Airbnb updated the previous screening level based on "location, number of people, price", adding "desert", "tropical", "shepherd's hut", "vineyard", "creative space", "Cycladic architecture" and other up to 50 listing keyword categories, shortening the distance between tourists and the love house in time.

Apparently, Airbnb is ambitious in adding categorical entries, one called "OMG!" The new category comes with the UFO logo, which Airbnb has just launched in recent years, announcing that they are looking for "the craziest space in the world", including but not limited to tree houses, yurts, barns, boats, castles, windmills... The 100 finalists who meet the entry requirements will be divided into $10 million of OMG!" Dream Fund" for more alternative, quirky, and wonderful renovations of homes.

"Originality" requires that the design of the space must not only be different, but also "surprising"; "Feasibility" stipulates that the wonderful idea of the work can be landed before August 2023 and can withstand professional quality inspection and assessment; "Sustainability" encourages landlords to use clean energy and recyclable materials – "your home should have a big impact on guests and a small impact on the planet"; The final "experiential" is that the house should be "built inside and out", striking the perfect balance between "quirky concepts" and "comfortable homes". These 4 entries mean that you want to hear the words "OMG!" from the judges' mouths. "It is very important to have amazing brain circuits and strong practical ability.

Fairy tale dreams

Gulliver PotatoEs Cruise

United States

The 6-ton giant potato was recycled from the Idaho Potato Association's Potato Journey and settled on a 400-acre farmland after seven years of traveling through 48 states. The gray shape is simple and unpretentious, like an alien meteorite that has fallen to the plain, the sky is high and the earth is wide, and for a moment I am not sure of its purpose of suddenly appearing here.

The "Big Idaho Potato Hotel" was carefully designed by kristie Wolfe, a former Spokesperson for the Big Idaho Potato Tour, and has a simple and straightforward interior, but the tables, chairs, wooden beds, mini refrigerators, and old record players are readily available.

The nomadic pumpkin carriage

How dreamy it is to lie on the lonely field and look up at the stars! The Conferoga carriage at Dude Ranch is less than an hour away from Las Vegas, far from the drunken fans of the casino and not isolated from the world. Wooden carriages, wheels covered with milky white tarps, disguised as circuses passing by during the day, lit at night, and neighbors of fairytale town will come to visit immediately.

The utensils inside the carriage fully explain that "although the sparrow is small, it is complete". A bohemian mix of western denim, the warm texture of the wood and the cute cow ornaments complement the playful and laid-back taste.

Don't worry about finding a place to go, Dude Ranch also offers a wealth of outdoor activities such as cowboy day trips, horse riding, bull riding, circuses, etc., and intimate humans and animals will relieve your tense nerves, whether personal or family, a trip to the "pumpkin carriage" is a good choice~

The garden where the giant's boots were left behind

New Zealand

Boots several meters high rose from the ground, not knowing which day they would be landed in the garden by careless giants. This fascinating fairy tale cottage, The Boot, is situated on the Tasman coast, with a rugged coastline and stretches of mountains behind it, allowing you to see the beauty of the natural scenery at a glance.

The arched part of the front half of the boots creates a "cave" dome, the cave features a large open fireplace, a luxurious bed, a double shower, you can experience Jerry's cave life: nestled in bed to eat ready-made chocolates, homemade snacks, and walk out of the cave entrance to a private courtyard full of green flowers.

Tropical Emerald Jungle

Costa Rica

Green Moon Lodge is a domed jungle in Montezuma, a quirky building built with a special concrete mix of foam, with almost all the decorations created by the landlord in collaboration with local artists. The exterior of the building is like a round pier with thatch covering the head, and the large area of emerald green and red and yellow color strips collide with the rainbow sugar.

The bedroom has a queen-size bed and large round windows allow you to lie in the room with a view of the jungle. During the dry season, you can open the roof and lie directly on the big bed to look at the stars. In the lush tropical garden, monkeys can occasionally be seen running through the garden. You can also practice yoga, meditate, or just relax and gaze at the jungle.

The Bloomhouse is a gorgeous beast perched in a secluded jungle, and the moment you approach it, it is as if you have entered the magical world. Its exaggerated and beautiful shape comes from carefully repaired dinosaur bones, and the entire structure does not have a straight line or a sharp twist, revealing a winding beauty after weathering.

It is a place of exile built by two hippie architects in Texas, a temple to escape from society, and a monument to man and nature. Their vision is to build a habitat that not only protects humans from the elements, but also allows humans and the environment to coexist in harmony.

"At Bloomhouse, you'll leave behind modern limitations and rules of logic and live in strange situations. We live in our own fairy tales. "The celebration of all the wonderful and mysterious things will take place here.

An oasis with octopus suction cups

Mexico

From a distance, Quetzalcoatl's Nest is like an octopus tentacle rising from the ground, a private "oasis" built by architect Javier Senosiain, located in a natural ecosystem full of trees, collagen plants and wildlife, and the colorful colors take you back to the rainbow world of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

The interior design is extremely simple, each window outlines a different landscape, the sun shines through the window, and the pure white and scale-free interior is filled with a simple and pure organic feeling.

Walking outside the garden pond and breathing with the plants, photosynthesis awakens the "inspiration" hidden in the body. Javier Senosiain built this physical and mental sanctuary, carving out an oasis of harmony and tranquility in the world's most densely populated city.

Hand-armored pterodactyls

United States

Located in California's Joshua Tree National Park, Kellogg Doolittle Village is one of the most maverick homes in the world, and Airbnb Lux exclusively disclosed its first exposure.

Built over 25 years, Kellogg Doolittle is a marvel of the organic building movement.

Instead, 26 wing-shaped piers made of organic materials, like Huang Yongping's giant installations, quietly blend into the natural landscape: the kitchen and living room gently stretch around an immovable, million-year-old rock formation, while glass panels offer a glimpse into the endless sunrise and sunset.

Private routes in the park's no-man's land are just a few steps from the front door, where you can stroll through the gardens covered with cacti, snap a few photos at Skull Rock, and hike through the Hidden Valley Nature Trail; Or stay at home, keep the world out of the way, and be with the universe.

Industrial future drivers

The flying saucer lands, and the aliens arrive!

I've seen a lot of capsules, and I counted how futuristic this UFO is. The pure metal shell perfectly fits the hypothetical in the face science fiction movie, the small and cute size does not have to worry about what bloody and terrible behemoths will be drilled inside, the hatch supports remote control, in case of emergency, and a mini escape pod is built.

Are aliens who don't like color? The furnishings inside the UFO continue the combination of pure white background color + silver embellishment, and the ethereal space is filled with the cold feeling of future technology. The house is also equipped with a monitor for playing classic games of the 80s such as "Space Invaders" and "Defenders", which fans of Solaris Star must love.

There are also a few interesting "alien" embellishments in the UFO to keep as proof of the identity of the original owner, don't stay here too long, one day I will find it back!

Cool Planet Cup

United Kingdom

Known for its "fully autonomous living pod", Earth Conker was known for his work as a masterpiece from Jag Virdie, who was known for his involvement in Bentley and Maclaren's luxury car designs. The rusty red capsule is like a magma fireball falling from the sky, swooping down and landing on the top of an inaccessible mountain.

The real joy of staying at earth conker is that it simplifies all life steps, except, of course, aviation technology. There is no extra items in the cabin except for just need, what you can do every day, in addition to returning to the cabin to rest, is to watch the lamb walk over, watch the deer walk past, if there is a bear, then returning to the cabin is the choice to save life...

Space inside the cabin is very limited, which means stepping out of the hatch to embrace the wider nature, the private woodlands of the mountainside and rolling hills to explore, and if you dare to trek into the great wilderness ahead, you will have a wide view and... Pretty good 4G signal.

The Beatles piloted a yellow submarine
