Mushroom House, Residential architecture in Hyde Park, Cincinnati, United States.
The Mushroom House features warped cedar shingles, porthole windows, and a cone-shaped glass room protruding from its main structure at Erie Avenue.
Architecture professor Terry Brown transformed a regular bungalow into this experimental residence through continuous construction work from 1992 until its completion in 2006.
The residence exemplifies the architectural movement that emphasizes human-scale structures and intimate spaces, contrasting with large institutional buildings.
Visitors can observe the exterior of the house at the intersection of Erie and Tarpis Avenues, with several parking options available at nearby businesses.
Metal workers, glass artists, and architecture students from the University of Cincinnati collaborated to create the building's distinctive hand-cut shingles and stained glass elements.
