Mies and Carrots is detailing the process they are going through of potentially building a modern home. They have reached the architect interview stage after spending some time windowing down the choices. They are being diligent and thoughtful and the blog is good reading for those who considering the process themselves.
In a recent post Odysseus discusses a visit out to some new MetroHomes projects. Overall, he views them favorable and I recommend reading his review if you are considering one of the MetroHomes.

This is an update from an earlier listing with new pictures and a link direct to the realtor site (and I think the price changed).

Highland Hills - Picture Set
Spent some time in Highland Hills today. Last time I was there I went to see a specific house and was pleased to find a whole slew of them up there.
Mostly of the homes are late mid-century modern homes. Yet more are influenced by the times including a bunch that were spec homes at the time.
Had the pleasure of meeting the owner of the home above and he was kind enough to let me walk around. He and his family have owned the home for 40+ years now and prior to that came from an AD Stenger home in Barton Hills.
Just up from him was the home below looks like a Fehr and Granger / Emerson Fehr home that is now being renovated.
Overall, Highland Hills has a lot to offer fans of the mid-century modern period. The homes are much bigger than Stengers generally, though they are priced higher as well. The area doesn’t have the hip-ness that the South Congress area may have, but it is very established with a long standing community. Personally, I think there is better value to be found than places like Tarrytown, but that is me.

For Sale - $369k - Travis Height
This home has been listed for awhile, I thought I had put it up before, but I guess not after reviewing the archives. Anyhow, this is from the period (70s/80s) when modern architecture seemed to be lost in the wild.

Certainly needs some work, especially on the interior to get to more in the modern look, but seemingly good potential.
Thanks to Sarah for the pointer.
