It’s been a while since we had some yummy structural link love. Since my bookmarks are way too full, now seems like a good time to drop some…

house of the week: 003 | Terrace House via Architechnophilia – this image above is the part of the house that’s not actually there, or so the post states. What’s that mean? Why not go find out? It’s worth the click.

I’ve had this saved for almost a month and it’s time to let go. This delicious little prefab hails from Jetson Green, but I actually first saw it at Architecture.mnp. What to do? Who to give the link love to??? Well, either way, you win, because both blogs rock. That said, why not visit Jetson Green to read more about the Johnson Creek weeHouse Prefab Home and then head to mnp for a surprise old school post of mnp’s that I really liked. (Yes, it’s a nice kind of surprise, not one of those surprises that suck btw).

inhabitat has a very nice Top Ten Green Architecture Projects Of 2008 round up going on. It’s a lovely read, with all sorts of sustainable delights of the last year; well, except the Eco Spheres, which are way older than 2008 (????) Still, I love inhabitat too much to complain any more about this – how petty of me.

Lastly, those kooky cats at Swamplot are having a big ol’ contest for the Greatest Moment in Houston Real Estate, 2008. If you know Swamplot, then you’ve already guessed that the awards nominees are super fun. In case you’re lost, the nice folks at Swamplot brought us the home with nine and a half bathrooms and the killer wood panel home. Voting has ended, but you can still view the nominees, and soon, you’ll be able to see who won.

NON STRUCTURAL LINK LOVE OF THE WEEK:

Just for fun, and because Valentine’s day will be here soon enough, I have to ask – is there anyone on this planet who you love MORE than zombies love brains? If you said yes, here’s a smacking good offbeat worthy V-day gift idea.

A house that’s not all there, wee structures, the green life, zombies, and more…

Still, I do have some ever so lovely link love homes for you to see. You can go off and enjoy the work of other bloggers while I fix up this sad, sad, excuse of a category section.

Wind + light = bliss. Learn what’s making the lovely light show and see it up close at Cool Hunting.

Have you seen this awesomeness from Inhabitat yet? It’s so cool. I thought it was bark at first glance (I know, long bark huh? What was I thinking?). It’s so not bark.

Quazen has the “Guinness World Records Five Best Architectural Achievements” going on. I never read Guinness, but I suppose it makes sense to have an architect section. My favorite was the “The Heaviest Building to be Relocated While Still Fully Intact.”

Not sure that I’d call it a great architectural achievement, but it’s some sort of massive achievement. See all five.

Last, but not least, Jetson Green has a great New Zealand container home. It’s so in the darn hill, soothing gray, and slim, I don’t see how you can’t love it. Wait until you see the inside – very slender.

I’ve been saving surf links for weeks now, and need to unload some, so I may have another four or five great links later, if the categories don’t consume me.
