VW Beetle: The Car, The House and The Restaurant

By The Nag in Architecture, Auto & Transportation on Jul 5, 2010 at 4:55 am

The personal home, a project that began in 2003 is a 900 square foot, 3 story livable home inspired by the Bug, by builder Markus Voglreiter . The 36 year old master builder spent £750,000 to create the 3 story structure which is based on the original Beetle produced by Porsche in 1935.This unusual homage to the VW Beetle, not only exists as a personal residence built in 2003, but inspired a larger version four years later that is now a restaurant and bar by the same builder.

I’ve never wanted to live in a car but Voglereiter’s house and reataurant may have changed my mind. The photos are fabulous.
