The creator of the cartoon Dilbert throws away all conventional notions about houses to design his "ultimate house."
In pursuit of finding true happiness and peace on earth for Dilbert and Dilbert-like individuals across the globe, cartoonist and visionary Scott Adams embarked on a journey to create "Dilbert's Ultimate House"(DUH). DUH is a virtual web-based home that the famous icon of the workplace Dilbert, his fans, tech geeks, the environmentally conscious, and those who just plain love the comfort of a good sofa, will covet.
Packed with energy and water saving elements, easy to maintain, with no wasted "museum rooms", Dilbert's Ultimate House is a sanctuary for both the environmentally concerned and the convenience fanatic alike.
Plans for the Dilbert Ultimate House include a 3-D tour, video, photo gallery, and specifications.
