From this miniature, and unlikely, beginning BAM designers worked together, drawing inspiration from everything from bio-luminescent underwater life to Italian bicycles to create the Urchin Cloud.

yes please.Y House in Catskills, New York - Steven Holl Architectsvia:plusarchitekt On a hilltop site in a remote section of the Catskill Mountains, the “Y” House ascends the hill, splitting to form two arms, ending in balconies. The “Y” cuts a slice of sky and draws the sun into the heart of the house. Like a found forked stick, the Y makes a primitive mark on a vast site. The geometry contains a sectional flip of public/private and day/night with bedrooms below and living above. Maximum wall hanging space to accommodate a contemporary art collection is balanced with windows framing unique views. Deep balconies facing nearly due south act as passive solar devices allowing the winter sun to penetrate the interiors while excluding the hot summer sun. Steel framing and roof are iron-oxide red, siding is stained cedar while interiors are white with ash floors.

I love the way that each surface/plane is either glass or solid—
there are no window cut outs, making the whole thing feel light and open like folded paper *

Also one entire floor of my house uses only shades of gray, white and yellow, so I definitely responded to the interior color scheme. 

* I do realize I could have just said origami, but folded paper felt better— more open ended than saying origami
