Michael Jantzen is the designer behind the eco-friendly Solar Winds Desert Hotel. This hotel is designed to look like a desert plant and is self-sustaining with built-in wind turbines and solar panels.
The Solar Winds Desert Hotel looks almost like a gigantic desert bush with its leafing base and tall stem. While I'm not a huge fan of the desert heat, I am still definitely intrigued by this hotel.
