This is a really cool thread! You guys are all very talented!
I hope its ok I post something of mine, because it is nothing that has or ever will be built, but is instead merely something I did for fun. (I start college next year)
This is meant to be an alternative to the many faux historic homes springing up all around Chicago. I wanted to design something very modern looking but at the same time could fit in well with Chicago's historic neighborhoods. I tried doing this by stressing the horizontal and using dark brick as the main material in the front. Anything that is not brick is prefab concrete (I think - i'm not sure what exactly its called).
The only reason the living room is so small is because I ran out of paper space. And yes, it did take nearly forever to draw the bricks.
I used to be an Architect, but I left the biz to be an illustrator. With the economy in the tank for the past couple years, I haven't done as much architectural work as I'd like, but I've been keeping busy with some technical illustrations and infographic work.
My renderings are kind of a "soft-style", that is to say, non photo-realistic. My work is here:

I'm a student, so this isn't real. It's a little warming hut for a ski resort in Montana. Concrete study stuff.

A project I designed and built in 2004 overlooking Lake Travis. About 3200 sf. on three floors. Looking at the photos, I am reminded of how the spaces constantly change and shift as one moves through them - a real 'everything AND the kitchen sink' project. Also, the light was remarkable. With over 60 windows and 13 glass doors, the house really took in its paradisic surroundings and the sun and shadows shift all day long. Design influences ranged from Christopher Alexander's 'A Pattern Language' and Charles Moore, to old Tuscan styles, to urban loft, historic Texas/San Antonio, and even Chinatown shop fronts and Oil Derrick iconography! My first house design and hopefully not my last. A bit busy and even kitschy, but that was the plan...
