Not that I'd ever do it, but this is amazeballs

Q

Photo

I like the double mass - though more expensive to build 2 peak roofs

Q

Photo

1 bed single story floor plan

Q

Photo

Perhaps too open a plan for everyday. Cooking & cleaning noise would be an issue, but I do like the style of the fireplace wall and the floors - dark elements to warm up all that white. I also don't care for all the sharp corners. Wants some curves, still clean, but softer.

cabin loft #1

Q

the floor! large scale tiles that look natural.

Q

Photo

high windows allow light out beautifully, but how do they serve at allowing light in? esp in such a deep overhang?

Q

Photo

I love the secluded feel, but still bright when lit up. The contrast of colors works really well. Interest to see if it goes dark inside.

Q

Photo

A smaller terrace off the back that coordinates with the front porch. I like the weight of this - feels substantial but not oppressive. Always been a fan of arches. Integrate these ideas with passive solar orientation / thermal mass of terrace. Would love to see that blue stone carried to interior floors to bring the outside in.

Q

Photo

This house is WAY WAY TOO HUGE but some elements to favor: Deep wrap-around porch with a gable that allows almost for a separate outdoor room. Stone not brick. Atypical foundation plantings. No porch rail.

Q

Photo

And on the other side? Heaven.

Q

Photo

1104 sf house. Uber plain.

Q

Photo

Up-size it a bit and I think I could live here

Q

Photo
Photo

This might work for the NEXT downsize or a weekend space. A bit too together for everyday living.

Q

Photo

Modern version of split level. Opening walls helps with the "I hate this" factor. Some.

Q

Photo

I could live in a box.

Q

Photo

How about all sliding glass doors / french doors an NO windows?

Q

Photo

minimalist lines of the home... yes, please. No fancy.

Q

Photo

An open attic. Easily accessible.

Q

Photo

"Expressing how a structure comes together." Love this! Why hide?

Q

Photo

I think I could do this! How perfectly simple.

Q

Photo

Cheeky. Ha, ha. I see what you did there.

Q

uber elegant - could I keep this clean and uncluttered?

Q

Photo

this is a really cute small-scaled interior that seems light, bright, & very functional as well

Q

Photo

this is freakin' cool looking

Q

Photo
Photo

Far too fancy, but an efficient use of a very small space. I could see this as a guest room / study / writing studio, but I'd have to have much lighter & brighter, fun & a bit quirky style.

Q

Photo

This too. Cute house & garage. (How about 3 of these arranged around a central play lawn / courtyard area? One for the working workshop and one car; one for the main living/sleeping/dining area for 2, and one that's a guest house/studio? Hmmmmm..... potential?

Q

Photo

I think I could live here.

Q

Photo

le cute

Q

Photo

same kitchen different view, not a Best Buy appliance department

Q

Photo

I'm not a fan of the ultra-modern sleekness, but I do like how the appliances don't show.

Q

Photo

multiple levels, half-walls for a semi-secluded feel, noise reduction, etc. I also like closed wood stoves vs. drafty fireplaces. Seems more efficient for heat, cleaner looking, less hearth required, and with glass doors can also see the flames.

Q

Photo

steel beams, exposed stuff, quasi industrial vibe

Q

Photo

I think I just love everything about this, from the hinges to the green to the seating and stone porch to the little shabby garden spot just outside the door. How easy! Friendly, relaxed, functional (!) and un-fussy, with a bit of quirk to keep it from being staid.

Q

Photo

A partially slatted off laundry space - this is intriguing. Not too closed-off, not wide open, either.

Q

Photo

This is A Door A Bell!!

Q

Photo

rooms? who needs rooms?

Q

Photo

just interesting... this wouldn't fit in any neighborhood around here, though.

Q

Photo

too dadgum cute! What a sweet little getaway spot

Q

I like these windows, and the overall retro simplicity

digging this roof -

Outdoors, indoors, what's the diff? Sweet.

Q

Photo

This, but much less "done," A true working space that doesn't focus so much on looks but function.

Q

Photo

The scullery! This is what I want off the kitchen. Add a sink & a double desk space and this is where we'd spend 75% of our time.

Q

Photo

Charming!

Q

Wrap-around with a knee-wall railing. LOVE

Q

Photo
Photo

charming cottage look

Q

Photo

I like the look of a Mansard also. It has it's own sort of charm - like a jaunty cap atop.

Q

Photo

I like the idea of a butterfly roof for water collection, as long as the seam is not over the dwelling area. Here, it seems to be one shed over the house and another over the porch, with the roof seam *outside* the outer wall. Well-thought.

Q

Photo

This look is absolutely charming & perfect.

Q

Photo

I just love this feel. what a sweet little space.

Q

Photo

I really like this vibe. Sunny, uncluttered (as if!) simple, plain & functional. This would be the working space, not the entertaining space. Love that open wall!

Q

Photo
Photo

I could do this in the real house.

Q

Photo

efficient use of awkward spaces? Yes, please.

Q

Photo

Steel-fab? I could do it. Imagine the rain!

Q

Photo

Love, love, love. Coming home to this would be perfection.

Q

Photo

I LOVE THIS HOUSE!!!!

Q

Photo

Little, little. This is charming.

Q

Photo

same house - clever storage without making the space feel smaller than it has to
