Whether they are floating on top of water or nestled underground, seemingly transparent or apparently invisible, these homes push the envelope of what’s considered "normal" in domestic architecture. Yet each was designed in response to a very real and immediate concern, be it economic, spatial, resource-related, or aesthetic. Innovative, bold, and sometimes shocking, these homes, like their Modern predecessors, signal a new way of thinking about what our homes can be. They will no doubt set the standard for where and how we live, now and in the future.
Sean Topham is a commentator on architecture and design whose recent projects include Blowup: Inflatable Art, Architecture and Design (Prestel) and Hands That Really Grip, a documentary on Action Man. He lives in London, England.
