The eco-house self made with recycled bottles
It is certainly a monument to recycling the self-built home by Titus Engineers with about 6 million bottles and rubbish.
This Argentinean artist of Italian origin, who calls himself a self-taught sculptor, has made his immense house over 19 years in a town south of Buenos Aires, called Quilmes.
The glass bottles used for the construction, were recovered by Tito cleaning up the streets of towns in the area abandoned by gaps, and by recycling the same worn by him and those who gave him some neighboring businesses.
The walls of bottles also have the function of weather alarm: When the winds blow south leading to the nearby river to swell, the necks of bottles produce a whistle that warns of the danger.
The artist is also known for his original sculptures that decorate the house and other works that have the characteristic of being cumune all made with recycled materials, such as pants and boots made of tires and inner tubes of bicycle ( see photo )
To see the video interview with eco-ideas.net where you can enjoy different environments of the big house:
If someone were to contact Tito intreressato Engineers, maybe ask for some practical advice on construction techniques, your site is this: link
