$6,800 House Made From Recycled Plastic Bricks Was Constructed In 5 Days
Want to benefit the environment and save money on a comfortable abode? Consider what the company Conceptos Plásticos (Plastic Concepts) is capable of accomplishing in just five days.

Ordinary-looking at first glance, the 430 square foot structure is made from recycled plastic bricks that snap together like Legos. It cost only 20,000 pesos ($6,800) to make and is able to resist combustion, provide insulation and meet local earthquake-resistance requirements.
