Wife Complains of the Views, so Husband Builds Rotating House

"You can spin it as you wish"

In northern Bosnia, a 72-year-old man built a rotating house--to quell his wife's dissatisfaction with the views. "I've got tired of her complaints and frequent refurbishing of our family house," Vojin Kusic told Reuters, "and I said: I'll build you a rotating house so you can spin it as you wish."

Kusic DIY'd the solution using electric motors and parts from a decommissioned military transport vehicle, according to the Associated Press.

The house can be set to slowly perform a complete rotation in 24 hours, or as fast as 22 seconds.

For those who speak the language, here's a native interview with Kusic explaining the house:

He said that he had an idea a long time ago when seeing a train being turned at a train station, so I guess the claim about the wife was a bit fabricated. He said he wanted to make something noone else had.

Seems like a divorce would have been cheaper and less of a horrifying threat to the local wildlife.

It's probably cheaper, but maybe a bit less aesthetic than the magnificent Girasole.
