Summary

[edit]
Description
English: I did not get any closer as there were many people and I was not sure if I would be allowed or not.

This house is called "Around the Sea" and offers an executive beachfront condo with the hospitality of a B&B in one of the world's most unique homes.

The house can do one full revolution before rotating back again. It rotates as often as the controller wishes. The controller can dictate which part of the house faces which direction at any time (e.g. the master bedroom to face north east). This is carried out by a mobile phone application.

It takes the house about 45 minutes to make a full rotation. The speed is so slow that you wouldn't notice the movement unless you were looking out at a fixed point of reference.
