Offbeat has featured some outstanding architects. Sometimes though, the architects we meet here aren’t as popular as other featured guests. Probably because this is Offbeat Homes and not Architectural Digest.

That’s fine. I am partial to the architects because they mastermind such visions of delight for us all to see but I get that sometimes other people can be fun. That said we had a very popular non-architect guest here at Offbeat Homes back in August 2007.

Who was it?

A. One of the stars of the X-Files television series

B. An HGTV Design Star Contestant

C. A Food Network Star Challenge Contestant

Here’s the deal.

You get 5 points for the correct guess of A, B, or C.

You get 5 more points for knowing that person’s name (don’t worry I’m not spell checking).

Why are these the easiest bonus points ever?

Well, obviously once someone leaves the correct answer you can all just copy — if you trust the judgment of other player. I said the next bonus points would be easy.

However, I don’t want it to be too easy so why not guess which of the above: A, B, or C that I’d really love to have here if I could. You get it right and I’ll throw in an extra 5 points for you. I’ve been loosely keeping track and some of you are close point wise so these bonus points might make it or break it for you.

I’ll be back to leave my own comment with the answer in a few days; just like the last bonus post. Once I comment your luck has run out. So guess away.

15 Contest Bonus Points: The Easiest Bonus Points Ever

• “My favorite house today”
• “My favorite building ever”
• “I’m so in love with this house”
• “My future home”
• “This structure has to be the most amazing I’ve ever seen!”

The sad part is I’m never kidding. I do fall in love so many structures — I could never really narrow it down below twenty favorites. Even when there’s a structure I don’t like I tend to at least like one thing about it.

Therefore if you want ten bonus points for the Offbeat December Contest it’s going to be easier to guess my least favorite home. Below I’m going to post four structures. This one will be easy for long-time Offbeat readers; really it should even be easy for newer offbeat readers. I’m so giving this away. To learn more about a structure (i.e. get a clue) click on the photo.

1. Lundberg Design House

2. This home looks dull but inside… an offbeat wonder awaits.

3. The Camouflage House

4. The Height Residence

Alright, three of these Offbeat structures I’m in a current state of ongoing bliss about and there is one here that’s cool but I could more or less live without it.

Is my least favorite home 1, 2, 3, or 4? Leave a comment with your guess. I’ll check the comments in a few days and give my answer so you have until then to guess. If you’re right I’ll hand you ten bonus points. If you’re wrong we’ll have an easier bonus point post next week so no worries.
