Guiette Model Basswood carved house

First to recommend

Description

The Guiette Model

This model of a very mid-century modern house is made of basswood and can be painted, stained or displayed as is. Could be used as a modern doll house or as inspiration as you conjure up your dream house.

Base dimensions: 14.5" x 11.25"
Overall height: 21.75"

It'll run you $295., but that's a lot cheaper than the full sized version!

Wow. Now there is International Style on a smaller scale, the Villa Savoye (left) & Guiette House (Right) are loosely based on Le Corbusiers most famous designs. Made of unfinished basswood & more affordable than the originals, by a couple million dollars

Kaleidoscope House - Modern Dollhouse

First to recommend

10 people recommended this item

Description

This is the dollhouse that started it all. manufactured by Bozart, you can't find this anywhere anymore except for those selling it on ebay. A beautiful architectural dolhouse model, this was designed by PMW architects and made for children, but the price was made for grown-ups!

Consider yourself lucky if you can find it! As a bonus, Bozarrt made wonderful odern miniatures to go inside of it! I wish I'd bought it long ago. (via pmwarchitects.com)

Seriously Modern Dollhouses

First to recommend

Description

I'm hard-pressed to call Mark Turpin's architectural models 'dollhouses' given their detail and elegance. I think these are available only through his site --if he has any for sale. But even if you can't purchase them , you can gaze upon their beauty right here. (via markturpin.com)

The Mackintosh Dollhouse

First to recommend

Description

This is such a stunning architectural dollhouse, I'd actually buy it --and I don't have kids!. Based on the work by Arts & Crafts era architect and designer, Rene Mackintosh, it's beautifully rendered with correct proportions. I'd just put it up on a mantel. It's almost enough to turn me into a dollhouse collector! I said 'almost'. (via dollshouse.com)

Contemporary Ranch Dollhouse

Description

Another wonderfully modern dollhouse for today's child. This contemporary ranch house is so cool, it's as fun for grown-up as it is for children. Just think how great it would look with those Vitra minitaure modern chairs in it! (via realgoodtoys.com)
