The home is off the west side of FM521 about 2000 feet south of CR45 on property commonly known as Mojo Lakes. The specific lake it is next to is Chenango Lake. Unsure if it is even visible from the roadway as the area is heavily forested. Older locals have known about this place for decades and it is on private property & basic respect for others should tell you to stay off the property unless invited. It can still be seen on Google maps.

Beautiful work.

watching this in 2024 ;-D (I knew of Media burn and Cadillac ranch but not this)

Great

So very glad to find some live Manda! Only saw her once at the Cantab Lounge as Geoff Bartley's open mic feature. She made a big impact, obviously, as I keep searching for her every few years on KZbin, only I finally found her! I keep wanting to shush the talkers! LOL!

That dude in the white shirt looks oddly familiar...

THIS IS AWESOME STILL IN TEXAS

HEY MANDA HOPE ALL IS GOOD ..YOU ARE LOOKING GOOD HERE , PIXIE'S MOM STILL LOVE ALL YOU GIRLS

This does turn out to be particularly appropriate... Beautiful.

It's cleaned up some!

That Gwilliam guy is really good lookin'

How can I go there?? Please message back I've lives a mile from there my entire life

WOW!

La-Havvvvvvve!

I use to love going there for the summer when I was a child. My mother was a caretaker there throughout the mid 80's . Hope they restore that house one day. Shame to let it go..

How would I get permission to come out and see this? I've been badly wanting to see this for about 4 years now!

I was eight years old when the house was completed. I used to go spend the night down there with Doug, Chip and Richard. Hang out in the Airstream and pick Strawberry's out of the back of the El Camino which had been converted into a mobile garden...We will rebuild it one day!!! The House of the Century will be REBORN!!!!!

The owners are now aware that people are breaking into the property without permission. They are installing security cameras and will prosecute all future incidents of criminal trespassing. Don't invade other peoples' private property without permission! It is against the law!

@williamarea89 Willy this place is not far from my house...wicked. This is David G. by the way.

I did the soundtrack and yes it's an Electribe... This video is now being played daily at an exhibit at the MoMA in New York City, and you can hear the song clearly :-)

Amazing architecture! BTW - Who did the soundtrack? Do I hear a KORG Electribe synth in there? ;-) (I'm taking a break from playing it to watch videos...)

Do you have any idea how much it cost to make this?

This is amazing! The combination of video and music is just perfect. It surely has that space / alien atmosphere.

Then make an easter egg hunt out of it! It is indeed visible on Google Earth. The house has been vandalized several times in the past which is why its location is not public.

Private propery is not restricted to google earth. I would just be happy to see it.

It's on private property

Do you have and adderess or a location i can find it on google earth

I lived in Angleton all my life. And now that I'm in architecture school I'm just learning about this house.

No, the Sleeper House is just south of I-70 West of Denver and Golden Colorado on the way up Genessee Pass.

Thank you for posting this information. I studied this house and rendered it in college long ago. It was a fantastic piece of architecture for modeling. They should revive this movement and shove our culture into the 21st century and away from the pseudo-post-Victorian stuff that dominates residential design today.

I was contracted to demolition the illuminated walkway in 1995ish by the Oshman's. An amazing house inside and out. It's a shame that it is run down now. I thought there intention was to renovate it when we removed the walkway. I guess it's location makes it flood prone though.

Ok, thanks

I call it "Future Relic"... it's an original I wrote for this piece. Search for "polyp and medusa" on MySpace Music and you'll find it there too!

I must know the name of that song. Please!!

man who would'va ever thought something like this was in A-Town...i've never thought there was something like this in our rinky dink town.

A house shaped this unusually, that is this white and located on a body of water near Angleton, Texas, is pretty easy to find on Google Earth. It took me about two minutes. I remeber reading about this house when I was a teenager and I realy loved it, still do. There are several other free-form ferro-cement houses out there and I haven't seen one yet that I haven't liked. Not a cheap way to build if you do it right, but the results are delightful.

This is a cool house. So for steel reinforcement you used 1/4" rebar, chicken wire and "black pipe"?. Anything else? Was the black pipe removed or is it still in the structure.

was this house in the woody allen film Sleeper?

Are the reservations still going to happen? just curious. I would love to see this. I am only 10 minutes from Angleton, and didn't even know that was there!

It is on private property.

I am from Angleton and my Mom was friends with the caretaker. I got to go inside the house when I was like 7 or 10. I remember being absolutely amazed! I wanted to live there so bad!! Go Wildcats!

You mean U of H? Dean Mashburn may be able to help you with this request.

It runs in the family ;-)

your amazing

After viewing this I feel bad about giving you a hard time about being around when dinosaurs roamed the earth, so I wanted to retract that comment. Nonetheless the house looks EVEN MORE AMAZING as it endures time! The vines and lichen are beautiful! It seems such a modern structure even today; it will remain after the kids are telling my generation we are old... sigh. I have a feeling good design never dies, I just hope in my life I can contribute something this great. Thank you, again.

I just want to say thank you for posting this video. This is truly brilliant and I am honored to have been able to learn how such a brilliant design can be implemented by such brilliant (and determined!) people. You old guys sure can teach us kids a thing or two, I guess you all aren't a bunch of squares after all!

The song is my original work, composed for the film... more like it is available on my Myspace Music page for "Polyp & Medusa" (myspace dot com slash labaronesa)
