Who needs a house when you can have a boat dock instead? I’m sure the family home is amazing but I’d be happy as their boat house caretaker. Long warm afternoons, the lap of water under the floor boards, thrum of insects, cool drink in hand, feet in the sun, head in the shade. OK peace and quiet cut by the roar of engines and the high pitched squeals of kids having fun… but it would be worth it. Bunny Run Boat Dock by Andersson-Wise Architects from Austin, Texas.

Zinc, concrete blockwork, marble and bluestone on the exterior of this two storey extension to a traditional, Edwardian home. White interior and timber floors with colour play from artwork and flashes of rimini blue. Contemporary living… that’s what’s hiding behind the facade. Malvern East House by Pleysier Perkins.

And we’re all invited. The perfect spot for a few beers and a few friends. Prefabricated modular extension with rooftop terrace by Archiblox.

That’s what the print says and that may be true… or not 🙂 What I am noticing though is the demise of the overstuffed, the over thought, the over tweaked, the overdone. I love this Eagle Rock, California house Bestor Architecture. Stylish but casual, family friendly and just right for everyday living. And who could say no to a half pipe in the backyard?
