			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Pugh + Scarpa <strong><a href="http://www.pugh-scarpa.com/projects/vail.grant.residence">Vail Grant Residence</a></strong> is old school in terms of architecture, but I&#8217;m not so sure I&#8217;ve ever talked about it here. I really like this offbeat house, but every time I see this shot&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-2609 aligncenter" title="vail-grant-house" src="http://www.blisstree.com/files/69/2009/01/vail-grant-house.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="313" /></p>
<p>All I can think is that I hope no one accidentally tries to drive into that garage looking wall. This house was not actually planned as a kook, the design was necessary to cover some annoying zoning issues which worked really well in the end. The other side, that you&#8217;re not seeing in this image above has the most amazing lake views and the long interior is very cool as well.</p>
<p>One of my favorite things about this house are the pre-building plans (<strong><a href="http://www.pugh-scarpa.com/projects/vail.grant.residence">see them here</a>)</strong>. You know how sometimes it&#8217;s hard to really see what&#8217;s to come from renderings or models? Well, with this house I like the plans as much as the finished product. They&#8217;re very cool.</p>
<p>A visit to <a href="http://www.pugh-scarpa.com/"><strong>Pugh + Scarpa</strong></a> is always fun &#8211; you should head over. They&#8217;ve got some really strange (but neat) sustainable designs going on right now.</p>

<p>PS up very soon the final review round up of the <strong><a href="http://www.blisstree.com/hgtv-home-landscape-platinum-suite-software-review-designing-your-home/">HGTV software</a></strong>; which I would have done sooner (sorry) but I had a little family emergency (nothing big).</p>
