Taiwanese architects have constructed a 3-floor upside-down house that is fully furnished with a bed, dining table, bathroom, fireplace, and car. The pastel-colored property was built as part of an exhibition that will stand for five months before it is closed in July.

Huashan Creative Park in Taipei is the location of the flipped house. It will stay there until the exhibition closes on July 22, according to Daily Mail.

The home includes all the modern comforts many homebuyers would want, but it is totally upside down.

Everything in the home is attached to the ceiling. That includes toys, double bed and cushions, kitchen sink, dining table, fully-furnished bathroom, fireplace, and automobile.

The value of the house is $600,000. It opened on February 20, Saturday at an event attended by hundreds of people.

Tourists have been snapping images of the inverted house with 300 square-meters (3,230 square-feet) of floor space. Many pretend to put their shoes on the house's ceiling. Others clear dinner table plates above their heads, including a woman who grabbed a plate of spaghetti that was attached to a dining plate.

Other people lie on the house's floor. This allows them to pretend that they are "Dancing on the Ceiling" like the Lionel Richie song.  

Visitors can enter the house through a door located on the side of the house's roof. They can then later exit the structure through the front door located on the "top" (ground) floor.

The temporary exhibit was inspired by dollhouses and was built for an exhibition in the country. It was constructed in about two months.  

Another interesting structure built recently was an outdoor home theater made out of snow. A Canadian man built the amphitheater in an Alberta park near his home.

Graham Whatmough got the idea to build the theater while he was traveling in the United States, according to UPI. He spent about a week making a movie screen, throne-like chairs, tables, and benches.

However, after a few public screening of his own short films the weather warmed up and melted his structure.  Whatmough plans to rebuild it next year.
