Thanks to Hometta.com, I'm hoping to build this "48' House" in South Florida on a small urban 60'x100' lot. Hopefully, more architecture firms will continue to make modern home design more accessible.... especially for those of us who would still have to use traditional/conventional financing in order to build any home, much less a modern one. It's nice to see that Hometta recognizes that modern design needs to adapt to the system as it exists (bank, county, board approval) - right or wrong - if "good design" is really going to be accessible to even the not-super-rich.
