Solo Houses Project: Casa Johnston Marklee

Barbie loves it when artists are allowed to create carte blanche without too much direction or criticism. Why? This doll knows firsthand how upset her Ken gets when he's been criticized on his work for giving it his own unique style. While it's best that all artists consider a little constructive criticism now and then, it really helps them shine when you let them do it their way and on their terms. Otherwise don't contract with them. And that's what French Developer Christian Bourdais did. He enlisted 8 architects to design vacation homes on reserve two hours south of Barcelona, Spain. The results where nothing less than spectacular. 

Casa Johnston Marklee

This casa was designed Johnston Marklee a pair of Los Angeles based architects. The home rests amid almond grove “like a singular object.“ Panoramic views are provided by the roof terrance which also houses a swimming pool. The interior rooms are interconnected with sliding doors to accommodate privacy or allow the space to be completely open. (via/Archdaily)
