Seems like another week, another inspirational dose of architecture from Australia’s capital of cool, Melbourne… albeit it that McBride Charles Ryan’s mathematically designed Klein Bottle House is a one and half hour drive from Australia’s second city, nestled between the tee-tree and the sand dunes of the Mornington Peninsula. Based upon the rather over-whelming model of the ‘Klein Bottle’, developed by topological mathematicians – yeah that’s enough education for today – this rather lavish holiday home is the kind of outrageously designed property that people in the ’60s thought the future would look like and, well, we sure wish it did. Laden with international awards, the Klein Bottle House is a refreshing reminder of how thinking outside of the box, literally, can deliver truly inspired results….
