This remarkable collection of homes from all over the world includes a Moroccan home that was restored with a cotton swab, a home in Japan that helps its owners communicate and a French residence that was built with banana containers. We'll discover a home covered with synthetic turf in Austria, a hideaway cool enough for a secret agent in Switzerland and a residence in New York that boasts a 75 foot cantilever over the sea. New Zealand claims a modest dwelling where you can see the city but the city can't see you, fallen down ruins become home to a family in Scotland and we'll take you to an English mansion where rock stars and kings have partied for 400 years. There's a South African residence that floats in mid-air and a Mexican oasis that was inspired by a massive bird's nest.
