The Future is Here - OpenHouse Exhibition via Wired

Wired has a couple of great pieces on their site about OpenHouse - an exhibition dedicated to "architecture and technology for intelligent living." The homes are spectacular and innovative. I think it is safe to say you have never seen anything quite like them. Radical. I was blown away.

Here are just two of the ten featured projects: The Dunehouse (top) and the ThinkingAhead! House (bottom). Note the ThinkingAhead! house is by the Mexican firm Rojkind Arquitectos, who I mentioned in an earlier post.




If OpenHouse doesn't get you excited about the future of housing I don't know what will.

See the Wired articles:
"Inside OpenHouse's Blueprint for the Future"
"House of the Future Taps Nature for Novel Designs"

Wow! This a great link! I'm totally taken by The Primitive Hut, by Sean Godsell Archs. Godsell did the FutureShack, which is what sparked my interest in shipping container architecture....... Thx, John.
