Another TARDIS house from Shinozaki. Inside is definitely bigger than outside....."House for a Family of Five." Dr. Who's telephone booth TARDIS is bigger inside then outside, really bigger.
More from Shinozaki --- "House T for a Couple," Tokyo. Built, I think on what the Japanese call a flagpole site: alley frontage leads to "flag" for house. Again the interiors are spectacular... House is also a studio.
Prototype of Japanese "Gathering House" for earthquake homeless completed. The practical can be spectacular. Note: Image is of completed house. Follow link to see interior.
Argentine house called lopsided by some, but not by us. Seems cleverly done, to gain light, avoid nosy and noisy neighbors, and encompasses a party wall too. A party wall is a sound barrier between abutting buildings.
What is wrong with this new Spanish house? Too big! Takes up too much land. Separated rooms use more materials than ordinary house would require. But....I like it anyway. You never hear anyone in the next room; there is no next door room! No head-knocking, floorboard-kicking, stiletto/boot heel stomping sounds. A house made up of cabins.
NYT Home & Garden piece on Dennis Maher (whose show "House of Collective Repair" opens Saturday at the Albright-Knox, Buffalo) stays at home (in its own territory). If you really want to see his art follow links below to Albright-Knox, but above all his own website.
Another Japanese TARDIS house where the inside is bigger than the outside. TARDIS is Dr. Who's telephone booth time machine, which is the only thing interesting about the Brit TV kiddie/pop/si-fi series.
ARTOPIATECTURE APPROVED! Mike Page's Edinburgh Cube Project. Ten cubic feet; 6.5 ft headroom; clever stairs; big bed; solar panels earn money in U.K. Go to site for video tour and interactive panorama.
Three stories in NYT House & Garden Section about small housing. Does this mean it's [AMBIGUOUS] all over? Tiny is so cute and coy. Stop using it. Rational housing is not upscale downsized-housing or folk art.
Residential Architecture predicts more family cluster-housing. Self-sustaining communities. Lock those gates! Pull up that drawbridge! On the other hand, ARTOPIATECTURE predicts pads, pods, cabins, retreats, and new mobile, prefab and floating homes. Small is the new luxurious. Temporary is the new eternal.
German "hut" on footprint of and referencing a ski locker and service station. Chic neo-brutalism at last! Check out the interiors on link to architecture firm.
