What do you think?
I think there’s a real, untapped market for modern homes in Charlottesville. Latitude 38’s homes tend to look great and sell very well, for example.
I really like this home; this one, too. (not taking a photos from their site as I don’t have permission … despite it’s being “on the internet”).
The very first RoehrSchmitt Architecture creation, the Wall House is a 2,000 square foot urban infill home that was a great collaboration between the owners, architect and builder. The budget was tight and the expectations high, but working closely together the team was able to achieve the owners’ objectives in a crisp, modern package for less than $150 per square foot. The design is efficient and easily adaptable to other sites and contexts. We see it as a prototype for an affordable modern house on a typical urban lot – a loft with a yard.
As my research has evolved, I’ve finally found a reason to use Pinterest. Really. I’m saving my favorites both in Pinterest and Evernote, but Pinterest just offers a simple, efficient, clean way to save and display these homes.
I’m thinking a modern home like this would be more desirable …
… than something like this (although I am sure that this type of home would sell here – to the right buyer)
Just goes to show you that beauty is in the eye of the beholder…I find nothing attractive whatsoever about the concrete block prison cell in the first picture
To be fair, the ones I like the most are linked above – http://roehrschmitt.com/?p=674 – but I didn’t want to take their images without permission. 🙂
