The Underground Homes of Coober Pedy, Australia
The South Australian town of Coober Pedy is well-known for its profusion of opal. However, what’s even stranger about the town is that 80% of its citizens live underground in “dugouts” to escape the oppressive daytime heat. To put it simply, if you reside in Coober Pedy, be prepared to run the risk of heat stroke every time you go outside during the day because the temperature may soar to an incredible 127 degrees Fahrenheit.

WoZoCo Apartments, Netherlands
What would it be like to live in an apartment that protrudes entirely from the complex? For individuals who reside in the WoZoCo Apartments in Amsterdam, that is the case. They were built in a unique way to satisfy the client’s particular desire and adhere to city construction regulations. It would be extremely unnerving to stand below the jutting units, even if they are securely fastened to the building.
