Blakboxhaus (875 Sq Ft)
Named the "Blakboxhaus" the home was designed by film producer Helga Richter. According to Curbed, she originally had wanted to have a company build her home for her but found that builders were charging an obscene premium for modern homes. Taking matters into her own hands, Helga, who had a background in design, drew up plans on AutoCAD, had a professional look them over, and set about building her own home.
The finished product is a stunning 875 sq ft steel-clad modernist home, nestled in the woods. Helga incorporated several "green" elements including bamboo flooring, spray-foam insulation, and a tankless water heater. In total, she spent less than $150,000 for everything including the home, the furniture, and art. Now that's impressive!
