Yesterday I mentioned the new Earthship Coffee Table Book that’s coming out soon. Then I noted we should look at some. Frankly, we don’t look at near enough earthship structures here. Not only are they earth-friendly, but some are very unique.
Earthship Biotecture is a company in Taos, NM. They specialize in, what else, earthships. […]
So earlier today I posted the new architecture movie, and now a book. It must be media day here. Actually I received an e-mail about this amazing looking book a while ago, but sadly, allowed my e-mail efforts to fall behind.
The New Earthship Coffee Table Book: Part I by Michael Reynolds, looks great. I’m not […]
Last Call for Planet Earth is a brand new documentary coming out on January 31st. The focus… the environmental effects of building. Very cool. According to Architect Online, the film will premiere in, “Brussels at the European Commission’s Berlaymont Building. Conceived by Belgium-based filmmaker Jacques Allard, the movie features interviews with 12 leading architects around […]
Actually, barrels of houses. They are fun though.
The pickle barrel house — think they ever got the smell out?
The beautiful whiskey barrel house — recycled living in Findhorn Foundation Community.
The worst use of an old barrel ever.
Next the most amazing barrel home of all on the most gorgeous land ever.

Remember yesterday when I said I liked two cool homes from Cheryl Heinrichs Architecture yet, only showed the Twisted House? Or maybe you remember my straw bale promise. Well…
The Tranquility House is a great straw bale home designed by Cheryl Heinrichs Architecture. I really like this house. Although to be honest it had to grow […]
In Bend, Oregon is a small team, Cheryl Heinrichs Architecture who has created some great sustainable designs. Not all offbeat but two in particular stand out as notably unique. The goal of Cheryl Heinrichs Architecture is to indulge owners while maintaining a sustainable outlook — in materials, size, and feeling. One of the two homes […]
I can’t 100% guarantee the title (you know those kooky home builders) but I’m pretty sure this is the smallest home I’ve ever seen. So small in fact, that one can push it around the city, or the forest, on a hill, in a national park. Of course, this may be the only home you […]
In a previous post you may remember that I discussed; 10 Reasons Why Building Your Own House Sucks. I never did get around to posting the positives; mainly because I don’t like to think about all the trouble the darn house caused. Still, in a recent post’s comments Jessie requested the positives and I hate […]
From time to time we do have an offbeat emergency. Usually it involves me not being able to sleep until I post something amazing. Today’s emergency comes smack in the middle of the day which is new. I’m in the middle of building a monster city with my son but I took a break to […]
I say skip the sales and instead create some ultra offbeat and slick virtual homes. Equity Green had this killer post this summer on homes featured at Second Life, an Internet-based virtual world. People create worlds and then interact. However, the crown achievement of sites like this may be the home designs. Cyber based, not […]
The unique, odd and freaky homes of today and tomorrow.
