It can be a pain in the bum looking for the number on a home that you are visiting for the first time, but thanks to the Numbers House, you will never have to backtrack again. This amazing piece of architecture actually incorporates the address into its structure.
Designed by Japanese studio Mitsutomo Matsunami Architect & Associates, the Numbers House is actually a row of four prefabricated homes. Located in Osaka, Japan, the Numbers House involved taking ready-to build timber houses and reconfiguring the facades so the four units appear as one big building.
The completely unique three-story Numbers House is definitely eye-catching. One wouldn't even need to tell guests the number, just that the house is one big number.
