Jones, Partners: Architects - Awesome PRO/con IBU Homes

Container homes are one area of contemporary architecture that I find really fascinating. They're sooo different - a very unique and effective housing solution. Here's another firm that's doing amazing work in this genre: Jones, Partners: Architecture. You have to check out their site. It's a flash-heavy wonderland of images and ideas that you'll definitely enjoy if you like edgy but elegant design and a no-holds barred approach to housing. Very cool, very. Take their little "Taste Test" if you want to get a feel for just how different Jones, Partners are when it comes to their approach. It's a very thought provoking read.

Their PRO/con system (for Programmed Container) delivers some awesome homes. No wonder they call themselves the "Home of boss architecture - highly disciplined, reasonably priced." Boss might be an understatement. Bitchin' might be a better word. Bottom line, stunning, and I love what I see.

Take a look at their entry to the first Dwell Home competition:




The Jones site is loaded with pics. You can also see great images of their work, and get more info, at Modern Modular, a group that is working to sell and facilitate construction of high quality, modern and modular homes across the U.S. Jones, Partners is one of the firms they represent, so if you want a Jones house Modern Modular can help bring one to your neck of the woods.

Very, very cool. Take some time to browse the Jones site. Really amazing, intriguing and fun stuff. You will not be disappointed!
