If you haven’t seen the work of Robert Harvey Oshatz, then you’re in for a huge treat, because he’s our only guest here at Offbeat today. He’s that cool. He gets the whole day. Although really he’s so cool he should get the month. But I digress.
Oshatz has designed many an amazing structure in my […]
I wish Mr. Bruno had a tad more (read any) details about his work on the Steel House at his website. However, being that this structure is genius, perhaps he thought it would simply speak for itself.
Look how amazing the interior is.
Another exterior look.
Here’s my favorite part…
So, do we need more words? See a great […]
I was looking for a work chair for an office blog I write and I found one at an artist’s site…

Back in the old-school Offbeat days Kevin Humphrey covered the The Mushroom House. However, for those of you who don’t spend your days combing the archives this home is worth a look.
I personally love the Mushroom House. Located in Whistler, Canada it was started way back in the 70s. Not only is the Mushroom House […]
That title’s not joking around. This home is one of those top ten dream homes you hear about. Well, it’s one of my top ten dream homes anyhow. Actually if you wanted to create a top ten dream structure list you could just visit the Lundberg Design and be perfectly fine. All the work is […]
This is it; the last Blog Action Day Offbeat post. I tried to show a decent amount of sustainable homes today which I hope you enjoyed. If you’d like to learn more about green building and design or are thinking about building your own home one day check out some of my favorite books. I […]
Rockhill and Associates aren’t an entirely sustainable architectural business but they do incorporate green touches that stand out in their unique structures. They play heavy with how nature and landscape can be utilized with their structures which I like a lot.
Here are some of my favorites; for more information on the eco-incorporations of each project […]
