We talk often about treading lightly on the landscape, and fret about the impact of foundations; Geoff at BldgBlog shows us Single Hauz by Poland's front architects. He calls it an "inhabitable billboard" and asks "Could you use the mast-and-cantilever model for other types of architectural structures, whether those are single-family houses – whole cul-de-sacs lined with modernist billboard homes! – or even restaurants and public libraries?" Of course, there are a lot of places where billboards aren't particularly welcome; the image of the two units in front of the rock face is disturbing.:: Front Architects via ::BuildingBlog
