The Brutalist House of Iceland by LYX arkitekter is designed in the form of a flipped container but the sides of it are replaced with a panoramic glass guaranteeing 360 degrees view on the beach in the ground floors.
The dining/living room is on the ground floor.
And, so is the kitchen. Look the angled space the fridge is set into.
The third floor contains the master bedroom and a separate door for jumping into the panoramic pool.
You can see that blue area on the side of the house is actually the transparent pool.
The terrace where you can see the whole view while you are enjoy morning coffee
It looks like it’s built in the desert rather than the beach, doesn’t it?
Brutalism in the desert. This is Joshua Tree, California. It has 3bd. 3ba. and they want a whopping $12M for it. Look at this. Someone recognized it as rendering, so for $12M you don’t even get the house, just the plans.
Looks like something out of Star Wars, even the landscape.
Nice view.
This home is confusing and as usual, the real estate photos are all mixed up. I THINK that’s the kitchen island thru this door.
And, this is the cook top. Have you ever seen such a kitchen?
That might be a glimpse of the kitchen, but that’s all they show.
There are quite a few built-ins, but they’re mostly made of cement, except for the shelving in the living room.
B/c it’s in the desert, a part of the living room was left completely open.
I don’t know what this structure is.
This is the living room’s open wall. You could jump right off the floor.
The living room is on the 2nd level with stairs to the 3rd level of the house, which is the last level.
Some of the spaces appear dark.
The bds. look basically the same except for the shape of the light above the bed.
The main bed. It has a large overhead light, curved glass wall, and built-in nightstands with lights.
Round tower window in the bedroom.
One of the baths.
A second bedroom has sliders to the patio.
Here’s a cement bench with a nook at the entrance to the pool.
Entrance to the home.
There’s a mesh gate, or maybe it’s glass.
Here you can see the 3 floors.
The pool looks kind of small, unless it’s reflection pool feature.
The courtyard is private and walled in, but id doesn’t offer any shade and the cement floor must get very hot.
This home in Palos Park, Illinois is called “Majestic,” so I guess majestic is in the eyes of the beholder. (It looks kind of brutalist to me.) Interesting history- it was bought, newly built, in 2001 for $200k, listed for $3.5M in 2011 (taken off the market, b/c no one would buy it), and now it’s listed for $1M.
Look at the size of the fireplace wall. Glass walls surround an outside deck.
Look at the glass railings. That’s interesting.
I don’t know what’s going on here, b/c it’s not the kitchen.
This is the kitchen. It’s very small for such a large room, and doesn’t have much storage or anything.
One of my lesser known is skills is how to pour cement (my father had a cement mixer in the yard for making additions to the family home). This incomplete home in South Beach, Oregon is not the way to do cement. Yet, it’s for sale for $750K and the buyer has to right the wrongs and finish it.
This house is completely made of concrete (notice how rough it is) including the ceilings. A selling point is that the house is built to last with minimal maintenance.
The listing agent says it can withstand a 9.6 earthquake, is fireproof, and is windproof. In other words, this bad boy ain’t goin’ nowhere.
Termites and mold will not need to be treated in this home.
They put some flowers around to soften it up, and what looks like an upside down bunch of celery.
The problem is, how do you make it cozy when it bears a startling resemblance to Sing Sing? Notice the cracks in the floors.
This monument to cement, sand, and water sits on 2.6 acres, has 4 bdms. and 4 ba. and is almost 3,000 sq. ft. It was also reduced from $800K.
It is a minute’s walk to the beach and is on 2.6 acres, so the location is good.
In a leafy residential neighborhood of Nagoya, Japan, the Tomoaki Uno agency designed a fortress-like dwelling called ‘Takamine-Cho House.’ The 2-story residence is on a sloped corner site and is flipped upside down, with the bedrooms in the lower level and all the social areas on the upper floor.
There’re a lot of concrete structures, but also wood to warm it up and make it cozy.
The client wanted to create a house using traditional stone masonry, which stumped the architects at first. The architect explains, ‘in the beginning, I thought of it only as a finishing material.”
It gets lots of natural light, but also complete privacy.
Originally, Japanese masonry was used for castle foundations and stone walls. It was never meant to be a part of the architecture… therefore, there were no past examples to refer to.
Beautiful kitchen. It’s quite large and there are so many cabinets, but they mimic the look of cement on the walls.
This is cool- a cement wet bar for entertaining.
The stairs down to the bedrooms.
Lovely warm, well-lit hallway with storage, places to hang things, and a shelf for shoes.
One of the kid’s bedrooms with a desk.
This bedroom has a larger, built-in desk area.
Bathrooms with lots of storage options.
This bath has a view of the courtyard water feature from the tub.
The upper level features a private courtyard that brings natural light inside the inverted home, and a tranquil water feature in the corner.
