Eye of the Storm – check out this hurricane proof home

We all want to feel safe in our homes and if you happen to live in an area that is besieged by hurricanes you may have to come to terms that one year, your home won’t be there anymore. Unless you live in the aptly named Eye of the Strom, the quirky looking house that’s hurricane proof.

The house is located right next to the beach which, if you live in an area prone to hurricanes means that your homeowners insurance better be paid up. This domed structure however is made to withstand those storms. The home is bright and spacious, designed to make viewers think of a seashell.

It’s made of concrete and steel and can survive up to a category 4 hurricane so you don’t have to worry about coming home to no home in most cases. Still, all this security, it does not come cheap. The home is currently listed for five million dollars. Maybe smaller versions will pop up in the future.
