We came across these stone home pictures from Seattle-based Prentiss Architects and thought we’d share. This 2,800-sq.-ft. stone home design features a low profile and earthy materials that make it a perfect fit for its environment, overlooking Griffin Bay, and overlooked by a trio of stately old-growth trees which the architect opted to preserve and incorporate into the architecture. The trees are as much of the design as the architecture itself. Inside, wood and stone are the perfect complement to ... Continue >

Standing tall on a peaceful pastoral backdrop, this striking, sloping roof house design in Belgium is a beacon of modern design. This slanted unusual home designed by architecture firm MDMA stands out among its surroundings, thanks to a shape that seems to break through the soil. But on the other hand, this contemporary-style home's earthenware-inspired palette of grey-brown shingles and rust-colored panels really blends beautifully with the surrounding farms, fields and earth. Interiors are much the same; ultra-modern concepts, an ... Continue >
