Many social media users are extremely curious about a house completely covered in mirrors, located in one of the most beautiful places in the world.
“The Mirage House” in Gstaad, Switzerland first attracted attention last year. It is known that American artist Doug Aitken created this unique architectural piece in the Swiss Alps to celebrate the aesthetic beauty of the area.

Recently, images of this house have resurfaced on Facebook, sparking debates. Some users argue that the house is an eyesore and poses a danger to wildlife.
One disgruntled user said: “This house is ridiculous and needs to be torn down immediately!”
Another joked: “If I sold this house, no one would buy it.”
A third user added: “It seems that just a light touch would shatter the house.”
A fourth user commented: “This house is dangerous for birds and even other wildlife!”
Despite this, some opinions suggest that the house is “amazing” and highly artistic. One user wrote: “This house is perfect!”
Another joked: “If I could live here, I wouldn’t have to pay taxes because no one would find me.”
In fact, Doug Aitken has defended his work, stating that appropriate measures were taken to ensure the safety of wildlife.
He noted: “During the construction of Mirage Gstaad, we worked with Vogelwarte Sempach (the Swiss Bird Protection Association) and added black horizontal lines installed every 3 cm on the facade to help birds recognize it more easily.”
It is known that this attraction is only displayed for a limited time.
