Apollo Architects has designed a Japanese home that looks incredibly like the iconic Sand Crawler from the first set of 'Star Wars' films. This home may look odd on the outside, but it has a contemporary interior that any Jawa would want to call home.
Turning a Sand Crawler into a comfortable and contemporary home isn't easy, but Apollo Architects pulled it off with room to spare. The interior of this house looks amazing with the black and white color scheme meshing perfectly with the wooden floors. Check out Apollo Architects handiwork in the featured gallery.
