The 63.02° house was designed by Schemata Architecture Office, a house built at 63.02° to the road. The house in Nakana, Tokyo, was completed in December and has a floor space of 71.4 m2. Sharp angels are everywhere on this one of a kind rentable home that seems to have carved a place in the neighborhood. From these pictures the house looks very modern, but the space is very very small, I’m sure that in a house like this you’ll have to organise every inch. Finnaly this is a great example of how you can use a very small piece of land in a crowded city to make a place to live. – Via – Dezeen

The Cape Schank House in Victoria, Australia designed by Paul Morgan Architects is a great example of integrated sustainable technology in residences. The most interesting thing at this house is the water tank, the ceiling wraps down to an internal water tank. The tank cools the ambient air temperature of the living room during summer, supplies rain water, and structurally carries the roof load. During winter the tank is drained and wrapped in an insulating jacket. The tank also plays an important role in organizing the living area into four discrete zones: kitchen, living, eating and work. I agree that this water tank might take some space, but the design and implementation is awesome. – Via – Solardecathlon & materialicious

Neil M. Denari Architects (NMDA) designed a series of pre-designed habitats for Useful + Agreeable. The Useful + Agreeable house includes innovative features like aerospace grade aluminum panels, solar power, rooftop patio, rain collection, flexible floorplans, and built-in furniture to accommodate its economical use of space and energy. This u+a pre-designed mini hi-rise is not only a tightly designed house that uses every square inch of space wisely, it also attempts to express this economy in its smooth exterior surface shape, a form of industrial design at an architectural scale. I think that this house could be a great vacantion house. – Via – Mocoloco
