Texas Land Yacht

Texas Land Yacht

Made almost entirely from reclaimed materials, this small (512 sq ft) home is the “dry land” home for a businessman that works mainly on a yacht – hence the name “Land Yacht”. I love the look of the Land Yacht, it’s very warm and comfortable, likely due to the inherent wear on reclaimed materials, and the warmth in the colors.

Scrap House

It’s hard for me to know what to make of this house. On the one hand, I love the reused and recycled aesthetic, and the design itself is really modern and homey. On the other hand, however, it’s just a wee bit too junkyard-y for my taste. But I still give it two thumbs up!

Reclaimed Garden Huts

Reclaimed Garden Huts

Architect Jeff Shelton, refers to these little buildings as Garden Huts, but to me they are so warm and inviting, they are little garden homes. Made from reclaimed and recycled materials, they melt into their surroundings.

I imagine nothing more will fit inside than a comfortable couch and a warm blanket, but that’s all I need. Just curl up with a soft breeze blowing through the window…

Wood Pallet and Shipping Container House

Wood Pallet and Shipping Container House

This cabin isn’t exactly my cup of tea – it’s a little too modern for my tastes. That being said, their use of recycled products is commendable, and I love the interchangeability of their designs. There are definitely some good things to learn from these guys.
