Sometimes I’ll see a really delicious house, so I start reseaching because I want to learn more. However, sometimes this doesn’t pan out. Sometimes people randomly post houses and fail to say anything about said house. It’s frustrating.
Today I’ve got three of these houses. I don’t know anything about them except they rock (sorry). Starting with…

I suppose we can call this the tractor house. I’ve been all obsessed with finding out more about it for over a year. Since I’m having language issue with m3mary.com, there’s no hope. However, this is an excellent offbeat home structure, wouldn’t you say?

Buy a house.
Use leftover bits of paint to paint each shingle, window, and plank of your new home a different color.
Delight in your kooky abode.

Pretty cool. It reminds me a little of Dick & Jane’s House. Visit Colorful House in Russia to see more images of this nicely panted house.

I found this picture while hunting for an image of snow. It’s not snow obviously, but it is a bizarre front of a house. I’m not sure I like it at all.

I can see where this might be a cool idea, but the true blue color is throwing me. I’m not a true blue fan. I like softer, way darker, or more earthy blue tones. This blue is too much (and too blunt) for a structure.What do you think?
Still, you gotta give them props for the indented entry – which you can see up close here.

Being that copyright is reserved on this house image, you’ll have to scoot along to the link to see it. However, it will be well-worth the click. Trust me. This home is very cool; like some modern stone/tin age build, but with curious angles. You’ll like it. To view click the following: Weird House in Ransom Canyon.

I hate when people post homes without a proper explanation – I mean, I at least like to hear an architect name; you know. It’s disrespectful. That’s why I rarely post homes that have no named architect, seller, or so fourth. However, today I have to because I found a really cool house posted at Fun is 2 cool.
Of course the blogger didn’t give any info, hence my intro rant, but still this house is so kooky and amazing that I can’t help myself.
Look:

In any case, if you think the exterior is odd, wait until you see the interior – …read more

So, before clicking on the link, can you guess what the inspiration is behind this house? It’s not my style. But it is pretty darn cool.

This May the entire Lifestyles Channel is doing a month long theme event called “Three Doors Down.” The idea; sort of a meet & greet (and introduction) deal among blogs in our b5media channel.
I’ll be introducing you to one new blog a week here at Offbeat. Each of the blogs is one of my neighboring blogs – from three blogs down of course. Fittingly, I decided to give each of my neighbor blogs a house that’s appropriate for their blog.
This week, I’m kicking off the event with Psycho for Love. Not a blog I read normally, because frankly, to …read more
