Build Modern House with Lowest Cost – Idea from Pb Elemental Architecture

This is a modern contemporary house built on 1600 square foot site with the building cost just $167/sf and the footprint is only 790 square feet. Designed by Pb Elemental Architecture, this house was built with the main principle on how to create a modern house on tight budget. The client is a large family and still growing so the house must have four bedrooms, two bath, living and dining areas, open kitchen, an entry corridor, large storage room, bookshelves for huge book collection, laundry room and closet. And, the end result is a beautiful house with minimalist exterior and stunning interior design. via {digsdigs} Take a look.

Description from the Architects; Interiors are intentionally casual – concrete floors, pickled wood ceilings, painted millwork – reflecting the main purpose of the retreat home.
