What is a Futuro House?

A flying saucer you can actually live in. Designed in Finland, scattered across the world.

🛸

Conceived in 1968 by architect Matti Suuronen as a portable ski chalet — quick to heat, easy to construct in rough terrain. Made of fiberglass-reinforced plastic, only 80–100 were ever manufactured before the 1973 oil crisis ended production.
