Dutch designer John Habraken spent as many as 3 years on the design of practical, and the main thing of free "bricks" for distinguishing countries. What happened from this - further in the material.

Beer bottle from Heineken, as the main material for the construction of houses (WORLD BOTTLE).

For a long time, enthusiasts on the whole globe mastered the skill of the construction of fences, arbors and even houses from glass bottles. And this is no wonder, because the bottles are a throwing building material, which can be absolutely free to choose in the park, on the beach or on the trash. And if you add the durability of the glass floor to this, it is possible to skip the sunlight and maintain heat (thanks to the air layer), as well as the ability to give the original type of any construction, it immediately becomes clear why the bottles are so popular.

The development of a special bottle-brick left for a whole 3 years (Heineken Wobo).

At the same time, short neck and recess on the bottom of the bottle, allowing to form a reliable connection. Also, in addition to a flat shape, embarrasses were made on the "cuts" so that when the walls were laying there was a good clutch.

Such bottles are much easier to launch during the construction of the walls (HEINEKEN WOBO).

The released quantity of the glass floor should have been enough for the construction of several dozen huts. But no one behaved statistics, so to this day no one knows whether these unusual bottles on the Islands of West Indies were used. But in the Dutch town of Nodwick has since left several objects.

Walls made of bottles skip light and keep warm (World Bottle) well.

Unfortunately, after the release of the first part of the World Bottle, did not go from the conveyor. As it turned out, the bottles of such a form did not like the buyers, and the financial costs of manufacture increase.

From bottles you can make a spectacular partition or an accent wall (World Bottle).
