I just found a wesbite that is a gallery of a man's house. Not really earth shattering, until you see what he dis with his house. He made it look like the entire house was made of books. Everything. The furniture, siding, doors. He even made a folding bookcase that is a bookeshelf, and on the bookshelf are books made of wood.

That's right, everything is made of wood. It is really an impressive feat.

That's amazing! I wonder how long it took to build (and furnish).

Thanks for sharing this Jonathan. It certainly is an original concept followed up by craftsmanship to implement that concept.

Not to mention it that you could literally drive it on the Chesapeake.

I didn't even look at the rest of his site until you mentioned Ferrari. Here is the link to Livio de Marchi's entire website:

I barely have the energy to view the site much less think of doing something like that.

Thanks for the link.
