With more Perspex on my mind here are a few more futuristic plastic homes and domes. See what do you think of these.
Of course, first up, its every baby boomer's lunar penthouse, Major Matt Mason's space station. I adored mine and wanted to live in it!
Much much more complex, this is the incredible DIY Outer Space Station from Women's Day magazine ....
... from November 1978, its just out of this galaxy. If IKEA had made Star Wars flat-pack toys this would be it. Did ANYONE actually make one of these?
A more commercial but equally elegant Star Wars dome was the range of shop displays for Kenner's original toy line.
But if you crave stacked panes of coloured Perspex then look no further than the Kaleidoscope Doll's House.
This citadel of translucence was designed by Laurie Simmons and Peter Wheelwright.
This space age bauhaus was released by Bozart Toys in 2001. How appropriate! Its a Major Matt retirement home!
But if you want to put your coffee on your space base doll's house then this final residence is for you, the Qubis Haus coffee table. Watch your young futurists play happily whilst you read your back copies of TV21 by the fire!
