I'm going to go ahead and hijack on a completely unrelated note: Just received my BFM shirt, and a free Chive beer koozie to boot. CHRISTMAS IS EARLY UP IN THIS MOTHERFUCKER.

Aaron

wow – gotta be the NZ one for me!

i agree, it is the best one, but i wouldn't say no to the others

Aaron

For sure – happily take any over my rented apartment
Brutal Deluxe

I'd say no, but I wouldn't mean it.

Aaron

#3 Just make it a sliding glass door and it would be perfect for a drunken dive.

Meh… No personality.

hMMMM

none of these houses look very comfortable, either…

SamIAm84

Only if you have perfect posture for the mod furniture.

I love the architecture posts! Modern houses are the best! Can you get more plans/sections for them like in #8?

Hey – I'm an Architectural Designer – graduated a few years ago. Keep on keeping on during those long nights in the studio!

Anyway, if you like these – check out ArchDaily.com and Trendir.com – they're both loaded with good stuff and updated daily. AD has plans, sections, elevations, as well as great photography and write-ups explaining the whole thing.

Cheers.

I Chive On to make through the day, it sucks that it doesn't continue into the night when I need it most.

Thank you so much! These are wonderful websites!

studio sucks. avoiding it right now

Ella

Not for me. They don't have a "homey" feel to me.

Anybody else think the second one looks like the house featured in The Human Centipede? #10 #11 #12

Capt Obvious

I honestly thought the EXACT thing. As much as I think I would like to have a home such as this, the proverbial glass house as it were, unless the panes were shatterproof and electrochromic I would be too concerned about privacy and damage to relax.

Jake Keller

Modern? Frank Lloyd Wright has been doing this shit since 1935..

TheAndy

False.

oughtnot

Too sterile looking to me. I want a house that I could live in without feeling like I live in a hospital operating room.
Zaedrus

I'm trying to find more on the New Zealand house.
Anyone else find more or have the name of the architect handy?

Zaedrus

Drh. Nevermind.
Andrew Patterson is the architect. http://www.pattersons.com/#/gallery/LocalRockHous…

#19 Fantastic view but theyre all a little too antiseptic for me
Mike

ain't the first house of the "Cullen's family" ?

MEHR!

I believe that's in Pennsylvania, and just recently sold for $5.5m

jay

NZ house is bitch'n!
Da Lollipop Prince

nope. don't like em a bit. I feel like I'm in Cameron's house. It's like a museum.
Underbaker

So are the people at TheChive looking to buy a new house? Sure have been a lot of Modern/Mansion posts lately.
etcrr

Sick looking houses, they are simple in design and straight forward

Sleep_Salone

Kind'a like a truck, huh?

SSmaniac

#1 Looks like Cameron's parents' house in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off"

Snipes

Exactly what I was thinking

I never could get into the modern houses… To me they have no personality..

The Netherlands house looks like it was built by Ikea.
