For a mountain biker , the home where you start your footrace should n’t really weigh . But this transparent , material - enmesh cycling marquee is the kind of place you might find yourself wanting to hang around in .
The 300 - solid - pes platform is perched above Chile ’s Central Valley , a broad piece of verdant green that ’s sandwiched on either side by the coastal compass and Pacific Ocean to the west , and the Andes to the east . As you might expect , some bonkers mountain biking is to be found there — and the country is trying to boost its foreign touristry with it .
Cyclists and hikers are welcome to practice the hovel for storehouse — there ’s a hang bike sea wrack — or for sleeping inside ( there ’s also way for sleeping bags ) . An on - web site world power generator run on pedaling rubbing , which in turn power a set of LED for night lighting and a solar - heat exhibitioner above the pavilion ’s brand frame .
All this , in only 300 square invertebrate foot — and , surprisingly , built for only $ 9,500 .
It ’s a pretty awing project — and , even more astonishing , it was built as a last thesis projection of an computer architecture scholarly person named Rodrigo Cáceres Céspedes . inquire if he ’d ever view prefabricate them as treehouses ? [ ArchDaily ]
