This classic Offbeat post comes from one year ago this December. Oddly enough “Vertical Garden” is one of the most searched terms for this blog. I find that a little amusing; you don’t think there’d be that many people out there looking for this.
Still, the fact that so many people want a vertical garden makes […]
Lately it seems all I see are homes that technically might be out of place but are designed in such a way that blends them seamlessly into the landscape. This home, the House Kern, by Stoosarchitekten, I’m torn about. I’m a fan because Stoosarchitekten work always has nice clean lines and is subtle in […]
So, you’ve got your offbeat dream home… Now, what to do about filling your abode with offbeat art. You could go with plain old offbeat art pieces — there’s plenty around. Or you could go extreme and invest in some real eye candy.
Nathan Sawaya is a Lego brick master. However, once in a while he […]
This home is a super fly gift for all the little offbeat kids in your world. The simplicity, mobility, and eco-sensibility of this gift cannot be beat.

Kids can take this home everywhere — not true of the typical doll house. Also, not to get sexist but my son who is all boy in […]
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 […]
Today’s offbeat holiday gift suggestion is not a real king mind you but an ultra wacky shelving unit perfect for the offbeat home owner — or anyone who fancies oddball storage solutions.
The King of Siam Shelf is made by mOEbler. I like it as far as offbeat goes but do not like the color (good […]
And by cool I mean me. Ok, me and millions of other blog readers around the world. Here’s what’s spiffy and worthy of some love this weekend.
CAKE!
First off my pal Marye at Baking Delights has absolutely nothing related to architecture but she does have something way offbeat; A Car Cake! Not a cake with […]
I decided due to the late time that posting scary houses is out this year because you won’ have time to plan a spooky trip. (Don’t worry there’s always next year).
But I didn’t want to just end Halloween at Offbeat Homes with nothing so… what could be more fitting than Extreme Pumpkins.
Extreme Pumpkins is a […]
So far for Halloween Offbeat Homes has brought you jack-o-lantern homes and an Offbeat haunted house round-up. Still Halloween fails to be complete without actual pumpkin architecture; better known as pumpkin carving. I can’t show just any old boring pumpkins at Offbeat so here are some of the most offbeat carvings I’ve seen this […]
Since spooky old Halloween is just around the corner I wanted to bring on the scary. Offbeat Homes has already showcased many a haunted house, so I thought we’d start with a round-up of the scary you may have missed in the past. Click on the haunted home photo for an in-depth look at what […]
