If this is a re-post. Screw it. So any of you guys want to go in on something like this?


All That Is Interesting

The First Zombie-Proof House

Somehow, ritual drunk-conversation concerning team captains for the apocalypse has become a major part of the lives of 20-somethings. Having been matured in the Grandaddy-crowned masterpiece film (put “A.M. 180” on and forget that you have a job), 28 Days Later, we’re all a little too ready to deal with the 2012 of our dreams.

“The Safe House,” designed by KWK Promes, starts to get eerily close to something I could work with, if say 200 bludgeoned members of the undead army came over to eat their way into borrowing some sugar.

“The most essential item for our clients was acquiring the feeling of maximum security,” begins the designers’ website in the summary of the structure. Who wouldn’t feel safe in a concrete rectangle that folds in upon itself to become completely sealed? Even the windows are covered with a slab of concrete when the structure is on nap time.

The house, with its movable walls, has only one entrance, which is located on the second floor after crossing a drawbridge. Seems like the perfect opportunity to use a flamethrower and defend the life of your family, while stylishly nesting in a piece of architectural elitism.

HAHAHA freaking awesome. MASSIVE waste of money but sweet nonetheless.

How long would it take for you to go crazy with the undead hordes pounding on that rolling metal door?

 

[AKC]

Yea. Pretty cool though. It would be a sweet hold up way out in the country. I'm wandering what the cost was.

That's if they get over the concrete wall perimeter. I'm sure cabin fever may come into play at some point. But that would be the case anyway. Haha!

The metal roller door is a weak point. how about a steel slab that comes up from the ground instead. also there should be a large basement with an underground tunnel that goes for about a mile with an escape hatch somewhere in case you need to bail. Needs a water pump and solar panels, a sniping tower. I could probably think of a bunch of other things but its still cool.

All good points.

I do believe I see a solar panel in the 1st pic though. I'd like to see the full specs. I would think the man who dreamed this up would be smart enough to include a basement and solar panels.

Needs a roof top garden, solar panels and rain water collection.

 

[AKC]

If you google it you can get more specs. It does have solar panels and a roof garden as well rain collection. It's located in Poland.

Here's another one.

Zombie proof house

 

[fritzmeister]

My words can not describe (effectively) the awesomeness of this thread.

 

[Spxnerd]

That looks totally sick! The pool room has that white/blue glow to it, reminds me of that house in Tron.

 

[AKC]

The 2nd one I posted is pretty cool too. It actually has a deep underground bunker with blast doors. Plus it has it's own landing strip for small aircraft.

Here's another one.

Zombie proof house

i'll take this one

 

[saltair]

I don't see chickens running around either house....got to have chickens.

Here's another one.

Zombie proof house

ive seen this set up but not in the thought of zombie survival. i love the underground silo under a small house idea.


edit* i went to http://www.missilebases.com/properties and there are some which are way cheaper than the one listed but are also cool as hell.

 

[AZXD]

OP = Cool house, but it needs a perimeter fence of electrified Concertina wire.

The economy model

 

[Groo]

Remember, the pain and bleeding associated with razor wire wont bother most versions of zombies.

 

[AKC]

Thanks for keeping it fun guys!

The old missile silo would be my pick for sure. But I wouldn't pass on that other either. The guy in the card board box might as well just throw himself into the swarming hords of undead. Haha!
