Hello All! For approaching a year now I've tried to gather details on some of the worlds best Modern Residential Design and Architecture. I've received informal feedback from many of you, thanks.

Apologies for the slow posts Hello all, Apologies for the recent slow in articles. I've had a few revelations in my day job and have had to work a little on this after hours. New articles are on their way though... Nick

Happy New Year Apologies for the belated message to all as I have been out researching and celebrating the season in Obninsk, Russia over the last weeks. Beginning the new year I'd like to offer thanks and give a taste of what's to come: First up a thank you to all who have supported and visited the site over the last months. Second a HUGE Thank You to the architects and colleagues who have provided imagery, stories and most of all fantastic houses to write about! Over the next few months and once I've moved into my new place, I hope to bring you more global architecture and leading residential design. House designs and plans are on the way from Moscow, both traditional and minimalist modern. Thankfully I have found a lot more than the faux French chateaus that the nouveau rich seem to hunger for in Moscow. Some more great bach designs from Australia and New Zealand will appear, as will Kogan and Casas works from Brazil once completed A few more European posts for colder ...

Offbeat Homes December Contest I realise this one's a little off-beat, and not my usual house update but....... Offbeat Homes have a fantastic collection of quirky residences! Also they are running a great contest at the moment and to be honest, I'd love to have Dwell magazine for a year! It's really hard to get a hold of anything like Arquitetura Construcao, Homes NZ, Homes, or Haeuser, here in the UK. The nearest we have is Grand Designs which is about 80% ads. Head across and read more. Offbeat Homes This seems like a fantastic way to drive Christmas traffic to a wonderful site. Not to mention the great prizes. It's hard to get Dwell over here in the UK, but what the heck. I guess in promoting this, I'm lowering my chances.... Nick via: Offbeat Homes
