This was the first house that intrigued me. I like the small footprint and the idea of making that ground level structure serve as the main entrance as well as safe room. Imagine the security of having no windows, good steel doors and no outside steps to the first floor. I also like the cantilevered aspect but the house is a little too sterile and bright for me. Different materials and only a few windows on the sides would make it better. Like several of my favorites, this one is in WA.
This is the other of our two favorites. We would not want the steel shutters or an outside stairway. We would like most of the glass to be on the river side. Becky and I both like that the colors in this house are more natural. This another small house that might not look the same if it were bigger.
This house would be in the top five or six houses that I like. The various textures and colors on the exterior just catch my eye.

minimum glass on the sides and simple design
Becky likes this part of the house better
simple design and minimum window on the sides
This is a unique and simple design. It could have a lot more appeal with other exterior siding choices. But this another small one. I think nearly all my favorites are small.
I like this end of the house as it is in the trees
garage under house and extra glass at the top but minimum windows on the sides
Another simple design and minimum glass on the sides.
I like the security on bottom floor and simple design but small.
This one has clean lines and cantilevered deck plus a small footprint. Small.
