The interiors are terrific, colored stained plywood! I live in hills of Fairbanks AK and hope to put something this sleek (with a kitchen on my site). The windows are the clincher here, we get to -40 for weeks on end and if you puncha hole in the wall, you'd better fill it with something that is as good as a solid wall. I'd like the houseplans to build it out of SIPs and get the finishes. Plus I want a roof deck, some of the other renditions of the plan are terrific! Thanks for hopes of a contemporary couple!

We've still got a couple acres on a small lake in the sticks of Alaska. I can just see one of these on our land there. Well, that flat roof might be trouble with all the snow, but I guess I could nail a couple sheets of marine plywood at an angle there. That ought to fit in nicely with the existing architecture... My wife and I are great fans of Frank Lloyd Wright's simplistic, natural approach to architecture. I love how this fits right in that same line. Great find! Holy smokes, this is great stuff!
