Kids From All Over The US Designed Their Dream Homes And Then This Business Made Them Real
Kids are some of the greatest dreamers out there. Their imaginations know no bounds, and they truly believe the possibilities are endless.
When you ask them to come up with something incredible, they never fail to disappoint. A group of kids has recently proven just that, thanks to an opportunity offered by Bankrate UK.
Bankrate asked kids throughout the UK to send in drawings of their dream houses. The company chose eight of the countless incredible entries and then brought them to life. Using 3D digital rendering, Bankrate made realistic models of what these dream homes would look like.
The fascinating results are colorful, mystical, and better than any home we’ve ever seen.
Then Bankrate took it one step further. It teamed up with an expert real estate agent to put a value on these designs, revealing just how much a real property based on the drawings would cost. Not only do these kids have incredible ideas, but they could make a pretty penny by turning them into the real thing.
When Bankrate UK asked kids to send in designs of their dream homes, it had no idea how many imaginative designs it would receive. Of the many submitted, Bankrate narrowed it down to just eight designs. Then it brought those designs to life in 3D digital renderings.
First up, we have Alya and Zack’s five-bedroom, four-bathroom Unicorn House. This house is decked out with a rainbow slide, a party room, a soft play center, and a cinema. It’s also environmentally conscious, outfitted with solar panels. The real deal would hit the market at £5.5 million, or $7.2 million.
Berrin’s dream house channels a jellyfish design that could be straight out of SpongeBob SquarePants. While there’s only one master bedroom, there’s plenty of room for guests to come hang out. There’s also an impressive number of entertainment options that include arcade machines, table football, a carousel, a home cinema, playground, sandpits, and a climbing wall.

Charlie’s dream house was inspired by a wrestling ring. It’s surrounded by an awesome pool that doubles as a moat. The one-story open plan makes the home easy to navigate for the most enthusiastic wrestling fans.
