New York Penthouse Features Algorithm-Inspired 4-Storey Slide (PHOTOS)

It's a home any child would dream of living in. But while the couple who own this particular home have no children, it doesn't mean they can't live like them.

In fact, according to Bloomberg Pursuits, one of the owners developed an algorithm to create the features of their home; specifically, a 4-storey slide.

The designs were given to David Hoston, a New York architect, who had the privilege of constructing the magnificent piece of playground art.

When the penthouse was complete, the main attraction was a tubular slide that swirled 24 meters high. According to The Daily Telegraph, visitors can access the slide from the attic where they journey down past a guest bedroom and lounge before they land at the head of the dining table. Now that's one way to make an entrance at dinner.

The lower-Manhattan house spans nearly 7,000 square feet on the 21^st floor of an 1896 skyscraper. It also includes four bedrooms and 32 windows where you can get an all-around view of the big city, reported Bloomberg Pursuits.

To create the slide, the owners took up a full four stories of the building.

According to the couple, they were inspired by Carsten Höller's "Test Site" artwork that was installed in 2006 at the Turbine Hall of Tate Modern in London. The "Test Site," according to the Tate website, has five spiraling tubular slides that visitors can experience a physically and psychologically intense ride. In fact, the creator of this inspirational slide was a scientist before he became an artist.

Other quirky features of the home include an indoor rock climbing wall and secret passages for two cats. The playful aspects of the home continue even above the living room where guests can cross a glass footbridge and arrive at a floral-patterned crow's-nest-cum-conversion pit to get an above view of the abode.
