This is a view over Macau from the Guia Hills Park.
I was struck by the contrast between the very traditional housing close by and the high rise developments further back. High rise buildings are a common feature and its no surprise that Macau is one of the most densely populated areas of the world. An interesting place which is well worth a visit.

These modern houses have a splendid view of the Lancaster Canal, which runs along the backs of their gardens. The canal itself dates from the late 1790s, when it was built to help the supply of coal to Lancaster from the Yorkshire coalfields. Sadly, it was never completed and the railways took over the task. These days the canal is used purely for leisure purposes, and runs from Tewitfield - a mile or so from here - down to Preston.
Taken on my walk with Ross yesterday. I have always liked thees modern houses .
HFF and have a great weekend Flickr friends
These beautiful modern houses are on the side of the Lancaster Canal at Borwick in North Lancashire. The canal dates from 1795 and was constructed to improve the supply of coal to Lancaster. These days it is purely used for leisure purposes.
Borwick is a pretty village with a lovely green, numerous old houses and several farm buildings. On the side of the canal, behind the camera, is Borwick Hall. This is built around a 14th century castellated tower whose original purpose was to repel raids by the Scottish Reivers - lawless armed bands that operated each side of the Scottish border. After the threat had ceased in the 16th century, the building was extended into a large country house. This is now owned by Lancashire County Council and used as an outdoor education centre.
A 12 foot tall zombie & his tittle brother, waiting for Halloween! I hear many of these 12 feet tall decorations are being stollen! Did I mention, I took this from a moving car! Slightly blurry, but I think it suits the mood, haha!

I liked this modern house on the edge of Cookham on the first stretch of my walk. The owners must have a lovely view across the Thames Valley
The Lancaster Canal was built in the late 1790s in order to improve the supply of coal from the Yorkshire coalfields to Lancaster. These days it is used purely for leisure purposes. Those houses on the side of the canal at the village of Borwick in the north of Lancashire were almost certainly built around 200 years after the canal itself.
A quiet street in Minxiong, a small rural township in Chiayi, late afternoon. On the left, a low house under an old clay-tile roof, and in front of it an empty lot where another house once stood — now gone to weeds and wild grass. On the right, a new multi-storey home rises at the very foot of a high-voltage transmission tower. Power lines stretch clear across the sky. Three different ages of building, all sharing one short stretch of road.
The heart of the village of Borwick in the north of Lancashire has numerous ancient buildings dating back to the late 1600s. But here, alongside the Lancaster Canal, the houses are modern. The canal itself dates from the late 1790s and was intended to help improve the supply of coal from the Yorkshire coalfields to the City of Lancaster. For many years the canal boats were horse-drawn, and the horses walked along the towpath (pictured), hauling the canal boat with a long stout rope. A boy would walk with the horse in order to control it.
I like this smart, modern house by the river. Despite being on a slight slope, I'm not sure that it is 100% flood proof though.
If you thought it was impossible to mess up what is basically a rectangular design with lego, here I am to prove you wrong. :D
To make matters worse, it turned out too big to take a good picture.
Something about Brutalist buildings that gets me at the core. I love them.
One of my favourite galleries that I made here on my Flickr account is titled Bare Beauty of Brutalism. A collection of stunning images of Brutalist architecture and detail.
And I was recently gifted an addition to my home library 'Sydney Brutalism' by Heidi Dokulil which I'm enjoying.
I saw this beauty when recently in Katoomba in the Blue Mountains. A new build and surprisingly attached to the next door property by a sheer glass raised and covered bridge. This adjoining property was a large Art Deco property, so the twinning of the two was in contrast and highly intriguing.
Given its refined features, perhaps this can be called new Brutalism - the original was characterized by edifices of raw concrete with little regard for aesthetics.

I went up to the modern houses this morning to see if there was anything different to take. There was ... this house!
All the houses are painted white bar one or two which are wood covered. This one however is just all over the place and sticks out like a sore thumb being at the top of a side road.

Thank you for your favourites. :O)
I've taken this gate before, but don't think I've managed with the Trumpet Vine in flower as well.
My guess is that the gateway was there well before the house was built.

This is my build of a modern villa with a Bauhaus architectural style which emphasizes minimalism, functionality and clean lines.

The white flowers surround this split-level house inspired by 20th Century modernist architecture. The SNOT windows along the livingroom and bedroom started this build and it is almost a little brother to my previous Artsand House MOC. As always, I've spent a lot of time working on the interiors and I'm pretty fond of the combined kitchen and livingroom myself. I hope you like it too!
Second photo shoot.
Second build of the serie entitled Concept House.
Contemporary style and clean shapes.
Enjoy it!

This is Dune House MOC. A modern home surrounded by sand dunes.
The curved livingroom downstairs has glass walls. That contrasts to the rest of the ground floor with open plan kitchen and smaller windows. Why not read a book in the comfy resting chair under the staircase? The bathroom combines white and dark red colours and hosts a shower, wash basin and wall hung toilet. Upstairs you find the bedroom and space to read, paint or just relax.

Twee enorme appartemententoren aan de rand van de Utrechtsebaan wachten nog steeds op de overkapping van dit stuk UtredhteseBaan om het geluid te dempen. De kosten blijken veel hoger dan geraamd dus komt het er voorlopig niet van.

A modern split-level beachhouse with swimmingpool. The main entrance is located on the back of the top floor where the facade is rather anonymous. The front facing the sea is more luxurious. The house is fully furnished with two bedrooms, kitchen, laundry room, lounge, bathroom, music corner, TV-room, office and guest toilet.
Before I started designing this house I did a quick poll among my Instagram followers to find out which of my previous houses they liked and why. In this MOC I've tried to combine some of the things mentioned.
This MOC is divided into three modules to enable transport. Although the base and cliff are hollow constructions, the build is very heavy. One of my largest MOCs so far (my LEGO Masters Sweden builds excluded).
Orange Beach House MOC is a comfortable hide-away by the sea. It's a split-level house built directly on the beach. The idea of sandy cliffs and ground terrace with a small pool came to me first and then the rest of the house emerged along the way.
Downstairs you find a livingroom, bedroom and bathroom. Upstairs you find a calm room with sea view, kitchen and study. Fully interiored.
The building technique used to create the beach was new to me, but I think it turned out well. I used lots of curved slopes...
The building process is further described on my Instagram page (@betweenbrickwalls). Link in bio.
Modern design meets 1970´s vibes in this house. Fully furnished of course. The green foliage in the garden makes sharp contrast to the clean and box-shaped building.
Falu red summer cottages are a common sight in the Scandinavian archipelago. They were often built a long time ago in the 19th or 20th Century. Here is my contemporary take on a Falu red cottage.
These are my MOCs created in 2021! This year I stepped outside my comfort zone and created a space colony, an elf and a Syrian hamster. I built my largest modern home so far - Olive Hill House - and attended a LEGO event in Hässleholm (first in years), where I displayed some of my MOCs.
Every time I go past this house I wonder what the architecture was trying to design. It's not my cup of tea, but obviously someone likes it. Digging in the archives as it's too wet to get out.

Thank you for your favourites. :O)
Before the pandemic I brought this house to my work office to display it in my room. It has been there since then - alone. Now it's back at home with me and I decided to take some new - better - photos. So here they are!
Scandinavian Sea House MOC is a small - but functional - house by the sea. It is shaped like an L and located somewhere in the Swedish archipelago. Downstairs you find a small TV-room and kitchen next to a guest room and a laundry room. A storage space is hidden underneath the staircase, that leads up to the master bedroom. And now we come to the best part - the home spa! Here you find a Turkish bath and resting chairs in a peaceful environment with a panorama sea view. Double glass doors lead to the roof terrace outside.
The white flowers surround this split-level house inspired by 20th Century modernist architecture. The SNOT windows along the livingroom and bedroom started this build and it is almost a little brother to my previous Artsand House MOC. As always, I've spent a lot of time working on the interiors and I'm pretty fond of the combined kitchen and livingroom myself. I hope you like it too!
The Robie House, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for his client Frederick C. Robie, is considered one of the most important buildings in the history of American architecture. Designed in Wright's Oak Park studio in 1908 and completed in 1910, the building inspired an architectural revolution. Its sweeping horizontal lines, dramatic overhangs, stretches of art glass windows and open floor plan make it a quintessential Prairie style house. Although it was designed one hundred years ago, the building remains a masterpiece of modern architecture.
