"The Easiest Car in the World to Own"
Sometimes it is difficult to notice the design changes in a particular model of car from year to year.
It seems that each new design is just slightly different from the one that came before.
However, after 10 years of design alterations, it seems that the entire car has been redesigned.
Here is a photo-journey through 10 years of the Ford Falcon.
The Falcon was originally sold as a compact alternative to the bigger cars of the day.

Transportation For All
Soon, you won't need a lot of money to buy a bike. Izhar Gafni invented a bike that is made out of cardboard.
This could have a huge impact on countries that depend on bicycles for transportation.
Mass production will begin in just a few months.
It took Izhar a year and a half to figure out the perfect design.
After the cardboard is cut to the shape, it is treated with a waterproof and fireproof material. Later, it is covered in a lacquer paint to make it look good.
The bikes shouldn't cost more than $20 to buy!
What Will You Do For Love?
Abuja's airplane house, located in West Africa, is the special home of Said and Liza Jammal. Liza has always loved to fly. When they got married, Liza asked her husband if he would one day build her a home that looked like a plane. (Luckily, he owned a construction company) After seven children and many years, Said finally found a piece of land and started the work.
It was the perfect location. People can see the plane up to a mile away!

These homeowners deserve an award for preserving the environment.
They got architect, Ondesign & Partners, to build this two-story home in Tokyo around a tree rather than cutting it down.

Super Skinny House In Chicago
Can you imagine living in a house that is only 12.5 feet wide?
This house is just a little longer than the length of your bed.
Architect Doug Sandberg carefully designed this house in Chicago and it includes everything you see in other houses.
He did a great job making it look larger than it really is.
