The structure has no less than 25 bedrooms and five lounges. The dark contour of the eye is made up of solar panels, which provide all of the home’s energy demands when combined with a geothermal system. Rainwater is collected, and waste water is treated by an on-site biological system.
This is not a real photo, thus breaking /r/pics rules. This was a concept that was never built. Satellite images over the last 13 years confirm it was never built, and no primary source ever claimed it was built. Yet it has been regurgitated by content farms for over a decade.
Edit: It's a little scary that all these articles appear to all originate from a blog post on the architect's website, including a CNBC article.
The architect mainly offers masters programs in which students undertake an intensive full scale concept build. I'm inferring that they likely complete the project by writing a large retrospective of the project as if it was built. It's a great exercise, if you don't live in a post-truth media world where content farms hoard fun projects as fact. The architect has almost no photos of completed builds, and definitely none of their interesting or complex designs. If anyone finds contrary evidence, please send it along.

I knew she was rich, but I had no idea she had "custom-built compound" money.
