Q
wall nooks with vegetation create a nice sense of space
...but when used uniformly they become boring
wooden slats can be fun...
good use of materials
really nice example of fitting into site
integrating inside and outside
vertical slats can be good but overall tone probably too dark (esp, on left)
metallic mesh adds texture
column texture adds nice touch
like the round shape
different materials
if it wasn't so big it might work (but, as is, looks more like a conference center than a home)
contrast between light walls, wooden ceiling, black roof
this is an example of wood done well (different orientation, no large uniform surfaces)
example of 3-color contrast
example of where wood almost works (because of two styles) but ultimately doesn't (area too large)
might only work in evening light, but great use of different browns (though generally we're not "dark exterior" people)
probably not very practical but wooden elements break up the stark exterior
contrasting materials
maybe a bit too 1950s but interesting textures
would be boring if the wall didn't have the nice accents
path as a show
materials / light make this work
good: interesting shapes and surfaces; bad: overly tall room makes house look like a museum/office
another counterexample that taller is not better
pretty good but since house is so large, the repeated elements start to feel repetitive
green roofs are cool
cool materials, slits work; too formal overall though
good: materials, composition; bad: too big / too massive
unexpected use of cladding
cool fence with electronics motif
