Moving on to our top five Dezeen stories from August this year, this house with a spiralling concrete slide by Indonesian architects Aboday was also our most popular story of the whole year.
Land of Giants by American studio Choi + Shine Architects, a series of conceptual electricity pylons shaped like human figures marching across the Icelandic landscape, came in second.
In third place was House in Showa-cho, Osaka, by Shintaro Fujiwara, featuring a central staircase that rises through split levels.
The House with Balls by Matharoo Associates in India, with shutters weighted by concrete balls, was fourth.
This month's fifth most popular story was the monochrome headquarters of fashion brand Net-A-Porter in London, designed by UK practice Studiofibre.
