house design hunt

we've been busy for the past few days about looking for a house to rent on july. we've decided to rent again, buy a separate lot and build a house on that lot. we're hoping for a 500sqm lot around tagaytay. we've got an agent, we're studying loan possibilities and we might take a trip to the location next week.

now what we need is a design for the house. i'm not an architect but i know how it works. i just need some inspiration. so, i ended up looking for designs in the web. google gave me design-house.com. looking at their catalog seemed to impress me and my wife. particularly this design.

here's the link

the lot is not situated near the beach so might not be an option for us. but, designs like this inspire me. so, if you're looking for a design too and ended up in this blog, try visiting their website at http://design-house.com/
