Drywall House

1972 House concept - made entirely out of gypsum wallboard

When I read Marko's list of "inventions" I originally left this off the online list thinking it might sound hair-brained to some. Then I saw it...

"A client once told me he didn't want any drywall in his house, he wanted plaster because he felt drywall had no strength. I think that when drywall is used in the same thickness—that is, one inch—similar to plaster, that it is very strong. That's when I decided that it might be a bright idea to design a structure built entirely of drywall just to show people what its structural properties can be." —Arthur Compton Marks
