As it turns out, the shell house is actually called The Nautilus House and was built in Mexico. It is not the home of Sachin Tandulkar at all, but a lucky family living in Mexico City.The Nautilus Shell House was build for a couple by Senosiain Arquitectos and was is put together using a frame of steel-reinforced chicken wire with a concrete spread over it, resulting in an earthquake proof structure.

Reminds me a little of Willie Wonka's chocolate factory... :)
It's an amazing house...would love to live in it for a while, just to try it out...love seeing lots of colour in a house as well!!
What an amazing window in the picture - wouldn't that make you wake up smiling
How amazing. How curious. I wonder what it is like to live in such a home?
Wow, very cool. But I think it would lose it's impact with all my clutter if I lived in it! I love the coloured glass.
Man! If ever I was caught up in a rumuor I think this is the kind I'd like. Lucky Sachin ;)
