According to what was reported by local Turkish media, the building belongs to a businessman named Cemil Excelmaz, who said that the idea of building a house that can rotate 360 degrees came as a result of the surrounding terrain and weather conditions, and therefore he built it according to European standards, as he put it.
He also added in his statements that it took one year to build and equip the house, and it consists of two floors that can be rotated by means of wheels, pointing out that he and his brothers participated in the research and development of this house, which was previously a wooden house, but today it has become more modern.
Sources revealed to Al-Arabiya.net that "this house, which can be rotated 360 degrees, is almost the first of its kind in the state of Rize."
This house was built in partnership between Bilecik and Eksilmez, which is owned by the owner of the house, who also hails from the state of Rize, and who indicated in his statements that "the house can bear heavy weights and face natural disasters such as earthquakes."
The weight of the house, which is installed using industrial wheels and motors, is 40 tons.
The house can be rotated by means of a remote control, in a move that the businessman said was intended to take into account the geographical conditions and is in line with development.
Local Turkish media reported many photos and videos of the house. Photos and videos show the 360-degree rotation of the house, which was built on a small area of 50 square metres.
