The house is constructed from sheets of plywood and frames donated by a local DIY shop. The outside walls are built from stacked bricks while inside, the shredded euros are used to plaster the walls and carpet the floor. It has a double glazed window, a high security front door and a toilet. — BBC News
Artist Frank Buckley decided to express his anger about the property boom and bust by building a house from more than a billion euros of decommissioned notes.

wow very cool, what exactly is a decommissioned note?
when they take it out of circulation, generally because of it being "mutilated"
I think there's a 3 second UL rating for those walls...
Would that exterior be described as "Christopher Alexander-style" . . . (see Pattern Language et al)
