A Linear Wooden Beach House Full of Light by Steven Holl
The wood houses always create warm and elegant atmosphere, they look cozier than the houses made of brick or steel. Wood house made of solid wood stands for versatility, strength and high quality. Have a look at this linear wooden house constructed by Steven Holl who got the inspiration of the close proximity to the studio of the painter Jackson Pollock. This residence may look a bit transparent due to its design. However it is closed at the south side to provide the privacy to the inhabitants while opening up the interior to the bay and the north view of the Atlantic Ocean. Strips of the sunlight get into the house and bend internal area dramatically during the day. Cool house!
Unique Hobbit Motel in New Zealand
Who knows how J.R.R. Tolkien would have designed a motel but the Hobbit Motel in New Zealand seems to have real fantasy appeal. The strange little building with porthole-style windows and round doors is built into the side of a hill in Waitomo, a region on the North Island known for its caves and waterfalls. Created with the Lord of the Rings trilogy it is at least three times bigger than hobbit size to accommodate its regular human sized guests. The motel offers two self-contained units which include kitchens, bathrooms and can accommodate up to 6 per unit. Most of the furniture made of polystyrene blocks serves as the perfect thermal insulator keeping heat and cold out. This motel will make you believe you are in a fairy-tale!
