Whitney Hansen and her mother Krista turned an unconventional idea into reality: a 24-foot-tall flower pot-shaped house on their family’s 65-year-old farm in southern Idaho. Inspired by Krista’s retirement dream of starting a you-pick flower farm, the 436-square-foot structure is both a tribute to whimsy and a functional living space. Inside, tall, tapered walls mimic the shape of a flower pot. The ground floor includes a pullout couch, a small kitchenette, and a bathroom featuring a handmade tadelakt shower. A spiral staircase leads to a loft with a queen bed, a branch chandelier, and a record player. Whitney and Krista handled much of the work themselves, from crafting the tadelakt bathroom to building the kitchen cabinets and completing the outdoor concrete work. The project was funded by Airbnb’s OMG competition, which provided $100,000, though utility development and construction costs pushed the total $50,000 over budget. Surrounded by farmland, the home offers a quiet escape where visitors might see tractors passing by, a reflection of small-town Idaho life. https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/1016745824098456942 On *faircompanies: https://faircompanies.com/videos/her-family-grows-plants-she-built-flower-pot-home-with-balmy-interior-%f0%9f%aa%b4/
