Villa Girasole: The House That Rotates

quote [ In the hills of northern Italy near Verona stands an L-shaped house called Villa Girasole, which means “sunflower” in Italian. And just like the flower after which it was named, Villa Girasole rotates on a large turntable following the sun across the sky. It’s owner and architect, Angelo Invernizzi, designed it so that his house can soak in as much sunlight as possible to “maximize the health properties of the sun”. ]

Let the world rotate until it takes you home

It's a very ugly house.
