Upside Down House Seeks Liverpool ONE Planning Approval
A unique and intriguing attraction is seeking approval to set up in Liverpool ONE, a popular retail and dining center. Upside Down House Ltd has submitted a planning application to the Liverpool Council to install its gravity-defying structure, designed to appear upside down on its roof.
A Walk on the Ceiling
Upon entering the two-story Upside Down House, visitors will find themselves seemingly walking on the ceiling. All the furniture, from sofas to chairs, will be suspended above their heads, creating an optical illusion that will make for memorable photos and social media moments. This unusual experience is designed to appeal to families, friends, and small groups, offering a fun and interactive way to engage with the concept of perspective.
A Global Phenomenon
The Upside Down House concept originated in Switzerland and has since spread to various locations around the world, including France, Germany, Australia, and the United Kingdom. The Liverpool ONE venue would become the only Upside Down House in the North West of England, adding to the city’s diverse cultural experiences.
Economic and Cultural Benefits
The Upside Down House is not just an entertainment attraction; it also aims to boost tourism and support the local economy. The planning application highlights the house’s potential to attract visitors to Liverpool and encourage spending at other nearby businesses. It is believed that the house will complement Liverpool’s cultural center and draw tourists to the area.
Planning Considerations
The planning application is currently under review by the Liverpool Council. If approved, the house would be built in a space previously occupied by a Tesla temporary store on Thomas Steers Way. The construction is estimated to take two nights, with work hours limited between 5 pm and 7 am to minimize disruption.
The Upside Down House promises to be an exciting and unique addition to Liverpool ONE. Its gravity-defying design and interactive elements are sure to capture the imagination of visitors and create lasting memories.
