As a fellow Architect, this is really a masterpiece the little details throughout the house makes it very unique, it almost has 2 colours grey and black and they are dramatically well done. Kudos

[@scratchy996]

This is like a movie that critics love for all the little nods and references to obscure old art films, but is a commercial flop because it's not entertaining.

[@IanbestSmith]

@@scratchy996 Yeah I think there will never be something like a perfect house in all human existence. Actually in Architecture everything is unique even when ugly, however, there are bad designs though but this i dont think its a bad design. Its just not alot of peoples taste

[@scratchy996]

@@IanbestSmith true, but sometimes even the best design can lack heart, and I think that's more important, if it truly wants to stand the test of time.

[@lecourageuxame100]

Everyone has their ideal homes in mind, and him being an architect, I completely understand why he made his house to be the way it is. Very modern with lots of unique architectural designs. It’s very beautiful indeed! But personally though, it’s not my style. If God wills I get to build my own house in the future, i’d love for my house to have lots of light coming in (cuz I get scared of dark spaces), bright, airy, with a good amount of wooden textures inside, with green plants- to give off a Zen kind’of vibe. Because I want my home to be a relaxing place to go home to. I want it to be zen, homy & cozy, light and airy, but modern still! 😍

[@DELPHIIII]

Pretty sure you just described his house exactly..

[@gladitsnotme]

This was filmed on a rainy day, so who are you to say it's not bright?

[@SilverHouseHD]

the attention to detail throughout this property is breath-taking.

[@musaddiqali1]

I feel this is how a house should be. Such sleek and modern, yet not so loud or overbearing or extravagant. I pity some people who invest millions in multi acre property with a pre built big house when they are a family of just a few members. This is a kind of house that they could have invested in. I guess it's not everyone's taste, or should I say, they have never tasted it.

[@TheLocalProject]

Thanks for the comment Musaddiq!

[@geraldgarcia7591]

design is minimalist...very post modern, futuristic...design is 50 years in the future...the best house design so far!

[@tundeuk]

[@LKW12950]

This was honestly amazing and inspiring, I'm glad I stumbled across this video. I'm currently mid-way through my medical degree at the university of Cambridge and neck deep in student debt that my family is struggling to cope with, and I don't know why, but watching this has given me some hope and motivation to push through it all, and maybe one day I'll achieve something as beautiful as what you have achieved here, even though right now I'm in need of great financial assistance. So, Thank you.

[@TheLocalProject]

We're so glad to hear Lumi and thank you for the kind words. We have more videos coming soon too which we hope helps get you through your degree (even just a little bit..!). Hang in there - it'll all be worth it once you graduate! 🙂

As an Architect myself, I do love this home...and I believe it speaks to a home as a home.

[@TheLocalProject]

Completely agree Roy!

[@startreker8591]

[@weetikissa]

Very gray and rectangular. Makes me feel restless. Cozy is not a word I would use to describe this house.

Looks like the one from Parasite lol but I love it.

[@Timeculture]

I agree. The audio Feels like narration to a totally different house from the cold expensive showpiece I’m seeing on screen

[@HT-pl8du]

I feel like maybe the colors, but other than that it is very cozy. The restroom is beautiful, restrooms don't need to be cozy. But it isn't cold, the rounded edges, the natural light, all the textures. In in the other rooms too, flooded with light and interesting textures. The living room sofa is so graceful and comfortable looking

[@lesedigololo7485]

I love how their house is so different from everyone else's house in the neighborhood

[@ngashmir]

There is something about the simplicity of design and layout that is beautiful, attractive and timeless. This house is built with the nuclear family in mind and it serves that purpose exceptionally well. The house is built to last and it will. Amazing.

[@TheLocalProject]

Well said Robert, we couldn't agree more!

[@Adi-ss9vn]

That's what i call an art! You're not an architect you're an artist. Seriously 😍😍

[@PositivelyNice]

definitely built to last. every architect’s dream - to build their own house and pass it down

[@danielcheng769]

I learned almost nothing about the actual home design from this, except for all the expensive (amazing) products and materials that ordinary people can't afford. Architecture shouldn't be about luxury or exclusiveness, quite the contrary it should be about accessibility and inclusiveness. It'd be much more interesting to learn how the architect used the design and layout of the home to enhance their daily lives, even if it's at a cost that very few people can obtain, some of the concepts would surely be applicable to lower cost and smaller homes.

[@timemasterhms]

Yeah felt like an ad more than anything. Can't say this is felt like anything special to me, just straight lines and expensive materials. See this so often in Australian architecture. They try to use Scandinavian and Japanese influence because they haven't got a style of their own.

[@TheLocalProject]

Thanks for your feedback Daniel, we do appreciate it. We chose to focus on materiality, longevity and the concept of 'creating a family home' for this video, but can understand your thoughts on wanting more insight on layout, format and functionality. Keep an eye out for our upcoming videos as we've taken a slightly more holistic approach for some of these, while others still focus on materiality and an overarching theme like the 'family home'. Cheers Daniel!

This undoubtedly resonates the notion of an "Ideal home". From the Tadao Ando's Concrete on the farcade to the interior finishes. These materials are cohesively magnificent. Is there an access to the floor plans of the home?

[@TheLocalProject]

Brilliant analysis! We don't have floor plans unfortunately..!

[@oneofonedesign4178]

Please don't compare this to Tadao Ando's work. This is far from it and just because this house uses the same materials or tries to, does not make it to that of Tadao Ando. To me this house is more about materiality and the very expensive products they used rather than talking about the design itself and what this house offers through its design that makes it more successful than standard homes. Well done to the architect for achieving his vision though.
