If the movie 2012 makes you afraid, if you are concerned about disasters in an apocalyptic situation, if you live in a tsunami-prone landscape, or if you have a paranoid mental disorder, you may be interested in [super protective housing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ironbark-house) from Korvelo. According to Korvelo, the ultimate safe house may be a pyramid.

The fully-appointed 5,000-square-foot home has 5 bedrooms, 6 baths, 3 garages, 4 cameras and 4 weapons stations. Construction can be concrete or steel or some combination of the two. No worries about drive-by shootings here—the structure, including the windows, is bulletproof.

If a pyramid isn’t to your liking, check out the [dome](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/belalu-dome-villa), castle, or sphere.
