oh cool, i love this kind of stuff. I've been into it ever since i can remember. I think my mom had a lot to do with me being interested in architecture, she always looks at Architectual Digest and they are adding on to the house now, it's pretty cool. Here are some neat things I found.

Ever heard of an Aladdin House? This is cool as shit!

 

"Homes Built

In a Day"

 

The Aladdin Company of Bay City, Michigan was one of America's most long lived manufacturers of mail-order, "kit homes." Begun in 1906 by two brothers, Otto and William Sovereign, the family-owned firm continued to manufacture houses until 1981. Over the firm's long history it sold over 75,000 homes to both individual and corporate customers.

View of Habitat 67 shows what appears to be random stacking, but actually one unit's roof was another's rooftop garden.

way ahead of it's time. These molded plywood chairs with compound curved seats and backs and rubber shock mounts were designed by Charles Eames and produced by the Herman Miller Furniture Company. 1947
