I’ve been browsing through architecture, home, house designs, and interior design sites. Since Ramil and I are wishing and hoping to have a house of our own soon, we’ve been looking at ideas we could use. We realized that even when it comes to architecture and house designs, our country is not very progressive. Many different ideas and innovations are being used in other countries that would make building a house less expensive. Unfortunately, many architects here are very traditional and not too open to other ideas. Since we’re going to be working with a limited budget if ever, we love designs that are easy on the pocket. We’ve even considered using container vans, which is a very interesting concept already being used in other countries.  I’ve seen  a few structures here that also utilizes these so we’re very open to the idea. Look at the very interesting house designs we’ve seen so far:

The house that’s designed above kind of looks like a warehouse, hahaha! What appeals to me though is the amount of space. It’s also open and airy, which I like. Using a nice set of outdoor furniture would look nice even if it’s placed inside the house. Unfortunately, the design above needs a huge lot. Although we’d love to have a big lot where there’s space for running around especially with our golden retriever.

We found many more house designs using container vans and the idea is very promising. There are also prefabricated houses that are well-designed. At least now, we have an idea of what we want when it’s time to sit down with our architect and draw up a plan of our house.
