Modern architecture for a modern, scary time. Home design taken to extreme, gritty reality and the strictest building codes: making it zombie proof.
The “Safe House” is designed by polish architectural firm KWK promes. It’s a concrete structure with multiple collapsible panels and roll top doors. The courtyard also has a retractable fence.
The structure is a concrete monolith, and its movable components are composed of light steel trusses filled with mineral wool to ensure insulation. All exterior surfaces are clad with cement-bonded particleboards, then painted with a dark wood stain.
The house is designed with only a retractable second-floor drawbridge as its entry. There are several sliding glass doors at ground level, but these will be secured when the panels are in place. Though a secure drawbridge entry is ideal in keeping out Zeds, one must also have an effective and well guarded exit, or a difficult time will be had leaving out the main entrance.
Several options come to mind: an underground, distant egress, or expanding upon the existing rooftop deck.

Call it.
Just saying.
Will Smith on “I am Legend” should live in this kind of house….
Nice. Only if that house didn’t cost 1 mil. Lol. I’m impressed with the site, good job.
Well, no new style or changes yet. Got a lot to do.
Plenty of room for the gimp. This house and a 10 foot tall 3 foot thick wall around 10 acres and you just might survive the Z-A and want to live to tell no one about it.
Nice!!! I want that house! I call second!
Uhm, I do believe I saw the back entrance at the 2nd picture, quite nice must I say, shame the cost.
Can that place take a tornado hit or other natural disasters? Just asking before I take out a loan.
i want this house :D
[…] Zombie Proof House: Some photos and descriptions of a total zombie apocalypse surival pad. This place looks like it’d be about impossible for slow or fast zombies. It looks like it could hold its own against even armed raiders (rat-bastards that they are). […]
