• I love the sliding window. It's a great solution for something I'm planning. Did you make it or was it an off-the shelf product?

• A worthy concept, with interesting execution. However, I'm surprised by the lack of community "street", which is relegated to the below-grade entrances area. This would not be desirable in an urban setting, and I'm not sure it works here either. Would like a follow-up article on this project, after the residents have had a few years to further adapt their spaces.

• Stunning contrast - bold rectalinear form vs gently rolling green pasture. While we would not be able to offer the same amount of open space in our development model we do offer the same shared experience in our "You Own" and "You Share" urban multi-family custom housing products. We feel the time is right to pursue the redevelopment of a wide selection of 'for sale', stalled, foreclosed and abandoned properties in Brooklyn, NY with the future homeowner as our development partner.

• What a great commentary on the way we live and redefining what it means to be home. Thank you!

• A most incredible adaptation of condominium living where the owners have the inspiration instead of a developer and the result is something truly exciting. Looking at the color coded plan I can't help but think of Moshe Safde's "Habitat" in Montreal. Shared spaces that intertwine but maintain independence. It would seem in both Habitat and this building the shared experience comes from mutual appreciation of concepts of living and appreciation of the buildings themselves.

• This is an absolutly fabulous idea. The sense of a community living under one brilliantly designed roof is wonderful. I would love to live in a house like this. I would enjoy having neighbors that close and sharing the cost of the land while still being able to have a "dream house". Stunning. Thanks for featuring this Dwell.

• What is the floor material in this house? I love the (what looks like) a black tile floor??? Does anybody know if its ceramic, slate, or polished concrete?
