I remember how, after watching dusk, never thought about it. The film is indifferently. It would be great if American romance takes up a small part of the plot. So my attention was drawn not so much from the film, as the house I saw in him. Namely house vampire Cullens. Aega your house! Even more impressed, and I saw Edward’s room. Immediately I decided that this is a house, which has to find more information and to publish it. I searched in the network and proved that not only I’m interested in it. In some sites there was little info, including the site of the company that built it. But then he never found time to write something. The good news is that plenty of information out in the meantime. Even an interview with Jeff Koval architect who designed it. It turns out that they are designed and built a house not for a particular client, but as project, as they call it. Ie it is built in order then to find a buyer and sell it. Were started in 2006 and in 2007 was prepared. After 2 days the market was bought by John Hawk, chief of the shoe department of Nike. After publication in the Architectural Edition family is connected Hawk Scout, shooting seeking locations for a small film called Twilight. Design a new house in the neighborhood and its construction will begin as soon as we find another vampire, “says architect Koval. Since the movie came out, architectural firms receive many letters from fans, and requests for plans of the house from all sides, such as Croatia, the Philippines, Brazil, Australia. The house, called M1, has a size 400 meters ² and is located on the border of Forest Park Portland, Oregon. Her style is modern, but with its horizontal lines, cascading levels, overhanging eaves, unconventional angles, big windows and roof with a small slope, rather reminiscent of prairie houses of Frank Lloyd Wright than today.

Again we are on Swedish land, but this time to stay in a villa. It was called Villa M2. Fully exercised on behalf of its design – minimalist. It was built by Lindvall A & D in Malmo. The construction was completed in 2008. The design is very minimalist, clean, tight in Swedish, but very happy stylish and beautiful. Plain white walls and straight lines are diversifying from the broken structure and large windows. The front facade overlooks the lake, which has previously been a career. Swedes have a nice habit to turn the depleted quarries in lakes. Here, according to the architects was a great sight, why the huge windows are placed. This provides a large amount of light. A view from the bedroom on the second floor probably really is incredible. Would be nice to make one or two pictures, because the lake is barely visible in the picture of the canteen. The rear facade is completely devoid of unnecessary elements, as seen at the road. There are only a door and a long, low window looks like a pillbox embrasure. The door itself is large and flat, almost square. Furniture and accessories are specially designed for this house. Few enough for my taste, but may not be reached for more money as they are so special.
