Even if you haven’t yet planned for a bug-out shelter these structures are amazing to look at! Thought and care that went into their construction and, we think, even a little sense of humor!

Ispilu Ainguratua by Robert La Tour d'Affaur
This public restroom—located in San Sebastian, Spain—reflects the Basque country terrain around it, thanks to its mirrored facade panels. It was designed by Robert La Tour d'Affaure.

Cadyville Sauna by Dan Hisel
The architect Dan Hisel built this tiny sauna on the Saranac River, in upstate New York. The wood structure is framed almost completely in mirrors—which make it tough to spot, hanging above the river, unless its single window is illuminated. “This surface, and, by extension the building as a whole, loses itself in the landscape just as the landscape tends to lose itself into the sauna,” Hisel explains.

Hidden House by Teatum+Teatum
During the day, the austere facade of this British home is imposingly blank—it's even embedded with silica carbide particles, a high-performance material used to protect nuclear missiles and build electronics. At night, though, the Hidden House's steel butterfly doors reveal a laser-cut pattern based on a pixelated image of rain on a window—and the home becomes a kind of lantern.
