New development, any takers? :-)
As house prices continue to soar, buying a property outright for £20,000 might seem like a bargain.
But, although this home sounds cheap, it is actually Britain's most expensive property based on size, costing the equivalent of £80billion per square metre. That's because the four-room property is only as big as a full stop.
To paint the house, I took the hair from a dead spider's legs and made a paintbrush.
Made by artist Willard Wigan, who specialises in micro sculptures, it fits on the top of a dressmaker's pin and measures just 0.5mm across. Its price tag puts even Britain's most expensive properties in the shade.
Old Swan House on London's Chelsea Embankment, which has a £32million price tag, seems a bargain by comparison, at £18,000 per square metre.
Mr Wigan, 49, from Birmingham, who used the popular Huf Haus timber and glass design for the house, said:
I spent 15 hours a day for seven weeks sculpting a minute piece of diamond. The beams are made out of floating fibres that you see in sunlight. To paint the house, I took the hair from a dead spider's legs and made a paintbrush. Then it was a case of being very patient and careful.
Live with passion,
Brett :-)
