The entire airplane has been converted into a single luxury suite for two guests. This means you have the complete craft at your disposal – including its top-flight facilities, which include a Jacuzzi, separate shower, infrared sauna, mini bar, 3 flat screen televisions, blu-ray DVD player with a comprehensive collection of DVDs, a pantry with oven/microwave combination, coffee and tea maker, free wireless internet, air conditioning, etc.

The plane is an Ilyushin 18 and was built in 1960. In its first years, it served as a government plane for the DDR top dogs, including Erich Honecker. From 1964 to 1986 Interflug, an East-German airline company, used it for flights to countries like Cuba, Russia, China and Vietnam. It could accommodate a total of 120 passengers and a four-man crew in the cockpit.

In fact, wherever you are in the sky garden, the views feel frustratingly distant. The city is separated from your gaze by a buffer of external parapets to the north and a smokers’ terrace to the south; nowhere can you put your face to the glass and look right down. The whole of London spreads out below, but you’ll have to crane your neck to see it.

So what about the much-vaunted garden? The glade of full-height trees, promised in the computer visualisations and used to sell the project to the planners, is mysteriously absent.

The home is a path through the West Va hills. The path splits and meanders to know where… to know where nothing is left but self and nature. The cloak of nature and soul are equally in harmony punctured by growth and rebirth all afloat. Swaying trees and swirling winds scoop clouds of water to feed the split trees. A rock opens as a stairway and leaves paths to take in or out. The home is a path through the West Va hills.

Swaying trees and swirling winds scoop clouds of water to feed the split trees. A rock opens as a stairway and leaves paths to take in or out. The home is simple, a main area and a guest house connected and apart. The main place is a bedroom, kitchen, dining and living. Basics are met under ceilings that are vaulted in wood. The living trees were saved and become captured art as they puncture the home preserved for lovers of nature.

"If you're looking for great places to trick-or-treat and visit on Halloween, look no further than this new apartment complex in Hamamatsu, Japan. The building is specifically designed to look like a witch's house and looks like a combination of a haunted house, Tim Burton movie, and Harry Potter movie."

Never thought I'd see an entire storybook-style apartment complex, but why not? The little touches of pumpkins and black cats on the rooftops is cute, too.
