There is a lot of Chateau & Fortress in France.

Even some Bunkers remain on the beaches.

They call Negroes "Zombies" now?  :huh:

Slargos probably can prove some racial similarities.

Huh.  It's built by a Polish architecture group.  Seems the building is outside of Warsaw.  Knowing this, it probably suffocates the inhabitants when it goes in to "Safe" mode.

Frankly speaking, you don't really need walls of meter-thick concrete when a bit of sturdy wood and sheet metal over the windows will do the same trick. If the assailants are so determined they're going to hack through a wall in order to get in, I have a feeling they'll be able to blast through concrete as well...  :hmm:

But I can imagine that the sensation of safety is far greater behind the concrete.  :cool:

Zombies can't man explosives. And if they can, God help us all.

They can't chew through timber either. I don't think I've ever seen a house built from materials that a man without tools could enter without going through the doors, windows or other open holes..

Hell, if it's zombies you're planning for, a few layers of plywood with lateral reinforcement will do the trick.  :hmm:

Given the minimalist approach, I would presume the turrets are also retractible and aren't shown on picture due to security reasons.
