Wayne Coyne: His [experimental] House

Wayne Coyne might quite possibly be the most interesting person in music. The front-man for The Flaming Lips isn't just one of the founding fathers of experimental rock (as we know it today), but his house represents a similar approach as his music.

If you're unfamiliar with Coyne and The Flaming Lips, I strong urge you to watch the Documentary The Fearless Freaks (which is available on Netflix Instant). You don't have to like The Flaming Lips or even know who they are to enjoy this film. It's an exceptional look into Wayne Coyne's inception of the band and his quirky approach to making music and living life.

The architects responsible for Coyne's unique home is Fitzsimmons Architects. I included a few photos from their site that are of the home, but to view the entire catalog, visit here.

Please keep in mind that this isn't a mansion. As far as I can remember, it's actually his childhood home that he remodeled.
