          If i were to have a house built for me, it would be more like this:



          Yes Please!

          That's right, another modernarchitecture-disliker. the square shape and so much glass, while somewhat neat looking, screams more LOOK AT ME! my house is MODERN and has a COMPUTER!

              not a gnome nor a hobbit but I was the inspiration for the dwarf character in RPG my friends were making a few years ago. Apparently it was the combination of how i run and my beard...reminded them of Gimli

                SO NOT MY STYLE not even close to anything I would want to call home.


                They all look so cold, and sterile. Look more like doctors offices or Office suites. Nothing homey at all about any of them. The 1st one is ok, but just way too modern with too many goofy angles and too much glass. like you would be living on a stage with everything you do the neighbors would be privy too.
                I dated a girl who was a house manager for a guy named Rob Glasier who comes from early microsoft money and was worth over $1 billion at one point. He went on to create real networks and rhapsody and shit. Anyways, one year I went to a Christmas party that he threw for the staff at his house (around 15 people). He had a house like these that was on lake WA, and while there was a fucking TON of glass on all sides of the house, all you had to do was hit a dimmer switch and the glass would tint so you couldn't see through it.

                I think houses like that are works of art and beautiful. You really have to walk through them to appreciate them IMO.

                  I LOVE houses like this!
                  I actually prefer smaller houses though.
                  This is one of my favorites:


                  Cost less than 500k for them to build it for you...


                  One thing I would change though is having the ground floor walls go all the way to the corner posts to make it an enclosed garage. Perfect.

                            They look cool as fucking hell.
                            Very high quality and lots of attention to detail, read about it.
                            Very energy efficient too, and you get a discount from the gov because of it. 51% more energy efficient than the average new home.

                              ^ I'm with you, I love the smaller, modern, thoughtful layout homes. I would, however, like more exterior landscaping/glass than the ones posted above.

                              Quality/Design > size.

                                I love modern Architecture. My Dad deigned this house for himself, and now I live here. It's 1200 sq ft, perfect for one or 2 people.
