Hey guys and gals! We FIND and PROMOTE people's work, we never take credit for things we haven't written, we just love sharing the things that are interesting, but if you don't want your work or pictures shown, please let me know and I'll take it off, we're not trying to harm any one here or infringe on anyone's copyrights, just late night entertainment for my friends and I after a long days of work.

We're not making money off the site, nor are we publishing anything to other places through feedburner claiming that it's our work, just a hobby of finding cool things around the internet, that's all. Sometimes we copy and paste too quickly and a link giving you credit doesn't appear, if that's the case and you DO want your work promoted, we will add in the backlink, we would love to give credit where credit is due!

Please contact me or drop a comment on any posts you guys don't want up and I'll take it off within 24 hours, thanks!

No Squares Here!

House in Minneapolis, Minnesota

This 3 bedroom/3 bathroom prefab “Weehouse” designed by Alchemy Architects is an excellent example of a realistic contemporary house design. I use the word realistic because unlike the many amazing architectural masterpieces we’ve featured on Contemporist, this is more affordable and accessible to the average homebuilder.
Perhaps designs like this will replace the current popularity of McMansions as the
standard house design?
