The 1968 Futuro House is an iconic design by Finnish architect Matti Suuronen. Known for its distinctive UFO-like shape, it was originally designed as a portable ski chalet and symbolized futuristic living during the Space Age. Only a few dozen remain worldwide, with around 14 scattered across the USA. One is at Area 66 Attractions, where efforts are underway to restore the structure, celebrate its innovative design, and transform it into a one-of-a-kind Airbnb experience.
