This home was custom made for the owner and it has some really nice touches. In particular it has restaurant style boot seating in between the kitchen and family room as seen in the photos below. The kitchen is nice and I really like the wood ceiling.
Back in 2013 I wrote an extensive article on Virginia Tech's Lumenhaus. Today, I am happy to give you an update on thier new project named FutureHaus. Virginia Tech will be formally launching their new home design in Dubai this month.

924 Bel Air Road
$250 Million
When I originally wrote about this home coming on the market back in 2017 it was priced at $250 Million. The price has since been reduced to $188 and I think the house has already seen some upgrades.

Welcome to Jake's Architecture World!!!
My whole life, I have been fascinated with architecture and interior design, so I thought it would be nice to create an architectural blog named Jake's Architecture World so I could share all my thoughts, ideas, and notes with you.
In 1943, after the destruction of the House of Parliament, Winston Churchill gave a speech regarding the rebuilding of House of Parliament and he famously said "First we shape our buildings, then they shape us."
SinceI collect quotes, I remembered his quote, but I thought it held even truer to replace the word "building" with the word "dwelling."
It is profoundly true, that first we shape our dwellings, then they shape us.
With Jake's Architecture World, I intend to cover all kinds of world architecture, with an emphasis on smart homes which are not only environmentally smart, but also technologically smart. In particular, I like homes with powerful, reliable and useful technology–which is typically invisible.
I hope you enjoy Jake's Architecture World which is much more than just an architecture blog!!!!
