Pensmore, Missouri

This 72,000-square foot behemoth was constructed as a tornado-proof home. It’s built with insulated concrete form and called Chateau Pensmore. It’s located near Ozark, Missouri and Steven Huff, an astrophysicist, built it to withstand an EF-5 tornado with reinforced steel referred to as helix, into the concrete. The concrete would bend rather than break in the event of a tornado. Concrete’s pretty versatile and it even makes a great table, see one and 15 other awesome DIY patio furniture options.Photo: Courtesy of Buddy Huggins
