I stumbled across these pictures today and was motivated. This is the type of thing I really like and would love to have as an escape on a hundred acres outside of the city. This was on Olson Sundberg Kundig Allen Architects site, check the site out for more pics of this cabin and others.

I posted a while back about my fascination with modern designed homes. There are not many of this style in Raleigh, though I am sure there are more than I am aware of. I ran into a house over at LamiDesign, that I liked a lot. I would just need to find a place to plop it, and I am always on the look out for land. The closest thing I have had to a home like this is what was called a tree house up at Wintergreen Ski Resort. Note the wooden trusses, three for each of the four sides that extend out.

I am thinking of getting a new personal house and really like the styling of the modern homes. Around Raleigh though I have not seen many houses like this. So I am looking for some land to put it on. Of course this land would have to be unrestricted, non HOA, etc… and preferably a bit secluded, if possible, with all the glass. Just to give an idea on land here, there is a piece downtown, in the “ruff” section of town going for $10,000. It is only a .06 acres though. There is half an acre near north hills going for $285,000. Then you get outside the city and you can get 2-3 acres for around $65-70,000. Lots of people buy houses downtown and tear them down. So I am not sure what I am going to do.
Check out the following pictures to see where I am coming from with respect to modern homes. I would like something that is a reflection of me and also something that will work around me. The pics below were taken from here. Does anyone here have experience with this type of home?
