SHANGRALA'S

WORLD'S MOST EXTREME HOUSE!

      The world's most expensive home is complete. The $1 billion (630 million pounds), 27 story tower block in Mumbai is the home of Mukesh Ambani - the richest man in India, fourth richest man in the world -, his wife and their 3 children. It is difficult to know what to call it. It is far too big and grand to call it a house, the fact that it has more floor space than the palace of Versailles and 600 staff would ordinarily make it a castle, or Mansion, but can you call a skyscraper a mansion?

      Here Are Some Awesome Photos Of It For You! Enjoy :)

      Antilia is named after the mythical island in the Atlantic. The construction is inspired by the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

      According to Inhabitat the Antilia is "boasting 27 stories at 568 feet high, with a total area of over 398,000 square feet of living space".

      Billionaire Indian industrialist Mukesh Ambani's wife Nita describes their Mumbai house Antilla as a "modern home with an Indian heart" and the "only home we have in the world."

      The building, which has taken nearly three years to complete, hosts 27-stories, which are far from modest.

      Ambani said rooms for the family are at the top of the high-rise to let in plenty of sunlight. The family quarters "sit at the pinnacle. We made our home right at the top because we wanted the sunlight. So it is an elevated house on top of a garden," Nita said.

      Nita told Vanity Fair that the whole house is based on the theme of sun and lotus.

      Exquisite materials like rare woods, marble, mother of pearl and crystal were used to craft the shapes of the lotus and the sun in the building.

      Contrary to speculation that the Ambanis had not moved into their home as it did not conform to the ancient Indian architectural doctrine of 'vastu shastra', Nita told Vanity Fair that they had moved into the house around September last year and some of the media reports about their house were "exaggerated."
