The Do House by Architecture W

Barbie thinks that the only thing you have to Do is listen to yourself and what you want in order to live your life. It does help not to listen to anyone that tells you Don’t aspire for things. Especially if a person telling you has success, love, cars and homes because it is even more pathetic for that kind of trash person to shut down your desires and dreams for your life. So go DO: Live, love, desire and dream... aspire for things that make you plan a future. Just ultimately listen to your heart, gut or instincts instead of anyone telling you what you want. You know what you want, go get it. Here’s a dreamhouse that says Do!

The Do House by Architecture W 




The architects goal was to design a home that aesthetically compliments the location naturally and uniquely. Located in the Pacific Northwest the home is an unassuming box wrapped in Portland lap siding. The interior plan is centered around a staircase core that is accented with continuous railing. One side of the home provides the entrance - the other interlocking side the home boasts an impressive view the Cascade Mountains. A modern color pallet of white paired with the walnut continues throughout the home to play up the the house’s  interaction between the interior design and exterior landscape.














Do you think you would live in this dreamhouse? 

Barbie would!

Enjoy!

The Flexible House by Amin Taha + Groupwork

Some people are flexible with their ideas and some people aren’t... with the latter wasting their time on games, which are just manipulations, to impose their will on others. Anyhoo, Barbie figures if you’re gonna be flexible then Barbie thinks why not flex in a dreamhouse? 


The Flexible House  by Amin Taha + Groupwork


The home is designed with the clients use and the possibilities of use in mind. This resulted in the planning of a three dimensional space that is crafted to display a love of materials.




The design incorporates a flexible home in a unassuming shell. Throughout the home one is delighted with the experience of living in a carved out space that’s adorned with hinged cabinetry and walk through bathrooms.














Overall, home is much more than it appears to be.



Would you flex in this dreamhouse?

Barbie would and she’s quite alright if you wouldn’t!

Enjoy!

The Time and Space House by Kohki Hiranuma Architect & Associates

Time and space are not ideas... they are social constructs that people impose their illusions of past, present and future situations and events upon. Barbie knows that sometimes illusions are the things people hold on to tightest so why not enjoy a little time and space in a dreamhouse...

The Time and Space House by Kohki Hiranuma Architect & Associates




The time & space house’ is a two-level dwelling in osaka, japan. Approximately 2 meters below the street level, the home ensures privacy while remaining flexible and timeless. High ceilings create a sense of larger than life space. Gaining most of its daylight illumination from a courtyard space & catwalk, the home, constructed from reinforced concrete, remains a flexible and transparent space. 














Would you lose track of time and space in this dreamhouse? 

Barbie would. 
Enjoy!
Kisses!

The Emoji House

Often Barbie thinks people make more of nothing than is there, rather than just enjoy things as they are. Now a dreamhouse is beautiful or fun in the eye of the homeowner... here’s a home for those that dare to mix fun with the dream of owning a home.

The Emoji House

Dreamed up by a graphic/street artist, Z the Art, at the request of the homeowner to reinvent the drab colored home into a “happy house,”  this one of a kind vacation home lends its charming sense of humor to all who inhabit it.












Would you find this home silly?

Barbie would!
Enjoy!
