Fit for a vampire.. The Hoke House (the Cullen House from Twilight) – Skylab Architecture


Edit!: Also see my interview with Architect — Jeff Kovel Here

UPDATE: Interior Images of the residence from New Moon HERE

Myself and two other architecture students went along to see the new vampire come romance movie twilight..

..We made the mistake of going opening day. Aussie kids are currently on their Christmas break and amoungst them, screaming teens, all hungry for the blood (like vampires.. get it?) of teen heart throb, ex- harry potter star, Robert Pattinson or ‘Edward Cullen’ as those who have seen the movie might know him.

Edward’s room.. see more on it here at Apartment therapy

It might come as a surprise to you, that myself and my friends, all in our twenties (and two of us male..) all swooned at one point..

But it probably wasn’t for the same reason as majority of the audience.

I’m talking about the Cullen’s House..

After seeing Manvi’s post for the house featured in twilight over at her blog Mochatini, I decided to do some of my own exploring..

Edward Cullen: “What did you expect? Coffins, and dungeons and moats?”
Bella: “Um..not the moats.”

Well I’m happy to say that there were no coffins, dungeons or moats.. but rather a splendid contemporary home, that’s certainly worth investigating…

The Hoke House is by architect Jeff Kovel via ‘Skylab Architecture’ it’s 4300 squares, built by Metcalf Construction, with Lucy Metcalf as the interior designer and landscaper.

The amazing symmetry and rough floor looks great, and the (perhaps over used) hanging lamp looks great in this living room.

The meals and dining area look warm and inviting, a strong use of timber again, simple tables and furniture used effectively.
Notice the floor to ceiling windows wrapping the kitchen that provide great natural lighting as well as splendid green, forest views.

The contemporary boxy home is well positioned on the site, the architects have taken advantage of the natural sloping landscape and have strategically placed the home so it looks out over the greenery.

It’s the use of timber that really does if for me, the striking middle floor of three level home creates a nice contrast with the industrial grey of the other stories, and again, relates back to it’s site, fitting in nicely with its green forest setting.

Modern, white and pristine bathrooms

Amazing bathroom window/skylight would allows its users to feel very free and open when stripped down and having a shower.

The contemporary feel is continued inside the home. The walls are a tradational modern clean cut white, though the clever use of timber is continued into the home as floorboards and on the stairs.

The house is open and bright and naturally well lit through the obvious use of large and multiple windows.

A bit of a side note, Twilight was a great movie and is definitely worth watching, (i’ve just started the first book also!)
But i’ll leave it up to you to decide which you prefer, the eye candy of Edward Cullen or his home.

    she said, adding that friends can be terrible matchmakers.

    Whether you are liberal, conservative or in between,
    I’ll bet that you have a loved one who disagrees with
    you about politics. It might be a sibling or a parent or a beloved cousin,
    aunt or uncle or even your kids. We should not stand
    for politicians from either party who insult them or question their motives or their patriotism..

    But after three years of OCR dragging its feet, the agency eventually dismissed
    the ZOA’s case. An article in September’s Commentary magazine confirmed that the agency’s dismissal was
    due primarily to its determination not to protect Jewish students under Title VI.

    sex toys Here is a tip, especially for you gals out there lookin’ to improve
    your blowjob skills. Straight dudes absolutely love it when the chick
    blowin’ them looks all slutty. You can often send him
    over the top by simply applying some Jungle Red lipstick.

    It is their money, so it is fair that they can make conditions on how to support you.

    butt plugs Just throwing in my two cents Lintu I think when some people
    feel strongly about things, they want other people to see things in the same
    way. And when they encounter something who totally disagrees,
    they get defensive. I personally don’t think that is valid to assume that a person who is against homosexuality may not be
    comfortable with their own sexuality, but I DO tend to wonder how comfortable that person is with sexuality and love as a whole.

    sex Toys for couples If you expect that companies are looking out for you, you putting yourself in danger likely in places other than just your sex toysMost customers don bother to do research, don know that jelly is dangerous (just like the other examples in this thread) and when they use google to arrive on Eden page, they click away when their
    ten second attention span waned if they didn find the cheap jelly crap they thought they wanted.
    They just go elsewhere, and never learn the difference.
    So EF carries jelly, and it up to reviewers and sex educators and bloggers to slowly try to educate peopleI never use or recommend jelly, but
    I do think some of us overreact to it a bit yes, it bad, but if someone smoking 3 packs a day, living on diet soda and fast food, and smearing
    endless chemical crap on their bodies every
    day in the form of cheap hygiene products, then what the heck difference does the jelly make, really?

    I think people need to choose healthier choices in all areas of their lives, not just in sex toysMost customers don bother
    to do research, don know that jelly is dangerous (just like the other examples in this thread) and
    when they use google to arrive on Eden page, they click away when their ten second attention spanMost customers don bother to

    Top rated coffee makers have a “through the lid” system this means it drips right through the closed lid in the carafe, so there is certainly absolute minimum
    heat lost. In addition, seeking these devices online is the best way
    to find out what individuals are saying about each style of
