3 Breathtaking Houses by the Waterfront | Dwell 

Beautiful homes and Stunning Views, with Family History.

The third house is my favorite. I luv the wooden slats used around the home.

For me the first house is everything. I love muti-generational, considered living. Amazing!

That last house is everything

I like the Oaxaca Puerto Escondido house, it's Divine!!!

2nd house is just everything beautiful and simple

The third house is so simple and inviting. very close to my heart.

The picture of the beach in the living room is so amazing.

OMG the last house is mindblowing

Too many close-up shots on this one, I can't really experience or feel how spaces flow from one room to another in this house.

All 3 houses are beautiful. Casa Cosmo its my DREAM!!! Thanks DWELL for share

I love all the houses in this video, but the one that really caught my attention is the third house, it's just pure raw art. I love how they maximize natural ventilation, and the openness and the raw materials are really cool.

The last house is gorgeous. I would've wanted to see more of the bathroom. A peek into the bedroom would also be appreciated.

The most beautiful family home i've seen yet !!!

Gorgeous Oaxaca house at the end.

A stunner of a place.

The last house is amazing!

2nd house is breathtaking ❤️

Dwell's videos are always great. 👍

this is love....

Amazing！

These homes are special especially because of the people and the space

I love the 3rd house ❤️

super and amazing...

sanaol 🥺💗

The third house cost almost nothing to make because concrete is very cheap in Mexico. I do hope they have screens for mosquitos

beautiful designed house, I love it

second house for meeee wowww that lush greeeeeen grassss.

I loved the 3 rd house. The poetic way they talked about their house, “the interplay of shadow and light” , “the way the light dances throughout the house”; the roof viewing platform, “so we can watch and be one with the cosmos”; “the blurring of boundaries”. I especially liked the great functionality and beauty created in a small footprint. The first house’s family members inter generational house was so well thought out and met everyone’s needs so well. I loved the different levels for the different members. I am sure this architecture will bond their close family even closer lots of shared memories. I liked the historical elements of the long generations of history of that family rooted in place in house two, and one.

Dreamy ♥️

obv the last house is amazin

With all the incredible architecture design and technological advancements available today I don’t understand why we have an affordable housing problem anywhere in the world. It can be done and done right and affordable.

Wonderful

They describe their houses very well

Unfortunately had to mute because the background music overpowered the narration, but the images were lovely.

Love the first house but grandma is on the top floor? Keeping her in shape🤔

the last house is good here in the tropics

A great house in my opinion has to be cozy, fun, practical, great design, easy to maintain, sustainable, inexpensive and timeless. I think the last house has all those elements and it’s a winner. Anyone can get in huge debt and build something very expensive, but not everyone can accomplish great architecture on a budget.

hello, dwell! I am the fan of this channel. And i want to give u an advice which is please you guys show us more about the house details. really thank u!

The last house blows my mind. Doesn’t look like a house, more of a hangout concrete hut or cabana. Don’t even know what I am saying. Lol

Love to take baths with candle lights

cool

😍❤️

2nd "scandinavian style" :DD other two are great

Love the video but find the music distracting. Makes it hard to hear the narration.

Loved the Mexico homes....the others were more of the same

The last home is a work of art, beautiful and simple, for bathroom I would have put a skylight and have soft lights, a bathroom needs to be more airy-more light; candle lights are nice at night only..the 2nd home design is nice but lacks warmth; the 1st home is really nice for big families..I prefer more wood in design of homes next to the waterfront..

I read about these houses in the magazine.

I could not absorb any of the speakers words. Why is the music so Loud? We didn't click the video for a music listening secession.

The 1st house, the top floor is for the mother? I always wonder how if elders get sick and unable to climb the stairs?

Y'all should have separated this into 3 videos. Love the last house!

梦想的房子

The second house’s interior is like unseasoned chicken. So much potential, no flavor whatsoever.

The owner of the 2nd house. I did not understand when she said she'd like to move closer. Closer to where?

Beautiful homes,! The last house is not the most practical home. You would be hard pressed in a lot of countries to build this structure with modern building codes. I would die to build with such freedom!

Second house it is! And its story, love it 💕

Where is that beach photo from ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍

will this concrete house stand against Hurricanes or Typhoons?

Why don't you name the architect of the third house in the description? Nice looking house but only works if you have people that clean the house every other day, without windows it is a nightmare.

Hahaha wonder how they deal with mosquitoes in the last house. Must be a nightmare

The first 2 houses is kinda 'meh' for me....I only like this video for the 3rd house. What a beautiful well-thought out house!

How many dates per day?

🤗🙄👏💕

3rd house s d best,but mosquito prone

All beautiful homes but a little commentary: When listening to the second homes owner it made me think about 2020 . When we talk about issues related to the wealth gap, institutional racism, 2 americas, the pandemic and our current political landscape you see how people can be so thoroughly frustrated. Generational wealth created by land & property ownership is an incredible signifier of how the myth of the American Dream takes it form. How a small group of people were able to manifest generations of wealth and property ownership through obtaining a plot of land over 100 years ago while millions of hard working, struggling, tax paying citizens are supporting an economic system which they will likely never benefit from. This is the great paradox and challenge of our age. How will we balance the scales?

cool. but didn't know shadows dance.. is that a Mexican thing?

showering with candlelight is an amazing experience...until u try showering after finishing a horror movie and the lights go out. yh no thanks. i grew up with candles and scary folklores, i'll take electricity over that any day.

The first house cool and practical. The second house nice, but too far out there away from everything. The third house becomes typical b.s. of architects falling in love with themselves, and no light in the bathroom need to light candles and the entire outer walls allow for mosquitos to get in, met lots of these hipsters come on

Anyone know the creator of the red art piece in the Oxnard House?

Stephen didn’t mind your TVF- he probably charged you $2000 to read it.

Beautiful house, but so many people and all relatives, it's a recipe for disaster. Unless you have top notch sound isolation, several bathrooms and tv's. And shared Netflix ;)

The last house reminds me of a jail. No light in the shower? Really annoying.

My question is; how do you keep those white couches clean when there so many children running around haha🤨

*Warning: The following is a rant about architecture.* First off, all three of these homes are beautiful. Let's move on. There are two elements of architectural design that feel like scratching on a chalkboard: *1) Canned lights.* In every new build and in every remodel canned lights litter the ceiling. Canned lights look cheap. Canned lights emit harsh glaring light. Never have I looked up at recessed canned lighting and admired the soft, diffused light. They look like they belong in a department store, not in a home. Even in historic homes, where canned lighting never existed, they are plopped in everywhere because they are cheap, easy to install, and builders are too lazy to judiciously hang light fixtures. Architects who rely on canned lighting do not know how to control light. To make matters worse these canned lights are never on a dimmer switch. Canned ceiling lights are the bane of contemporary architecture. They are the acid washed jeans of our time. Then there is: *2) Paint.* Yes, the use of drywall and paint in a home needs to be left in the 20th century. Painting an interior is messy, a hassle, and must be repeated every few years. Floors, fixtures, and furniture are often damaged. If you live in a rental property or in an apartment paint may be the only option but, looking forward, architects need to embrace the *NO PAINT HOUSE.* I was stunned to see that the third home on this list did not use paint anywhere. Ingenious. Homes that eschew paint in favor of solid materials will age gracefully and develop a rich patina over time. Paint free houses have less maintenance costs and are healthier to live in. Moving forward in the 21st century with these two simple changes will make architecture better than it was before.

ONE DAY MY HONEY WIFE ZAHRA HASSANPOUR AND ME , WOULD BUY A HOUSE LIKE THAT, SIMPLE AND BEAUTY NEAR THE KISH BEACH.

Lose the music on second home; cannot even hear or concentrate-so awful

The first house is gorgeous but the videography is way too distracting. The close-up pan shots across areas don't give a good sense of the space. Stopped watching

That typical American nasal voice kinda ruins the whole first video.

Cool house. Owner, architect, and designer all make u want to vomit in your mouth, but it is a cool house.

Annoying Voices

I know white paint is on purpose, but it looks horrible. I get the minimalism, but it looks horrible. I understand that a pure white lends itself to more inviting colors, but it looks horrible. No wonder Columbians are so fun. They live in color. This chic tho

Turned it off after 20 seconds the woman's voice is so annoying.

Breathtaking... give me a break. The 1st one is a lame box in an overcrowded favela. Wouldn't live there if you paid me. The 2nd one is nice. The 3rd one is meh.
