The goal of Apartment Therapy is "to connect people to the resources they need to improve their homes, while reducing their reliance on stuff."
Last week, the online design gurus connected their readers to a resource straight out of the University of Kansas: Studio 804.
Apparently, while scouring the nation for admirable home décor and architectural ideas, the Apartment Therapy crew discovered the sleek, eco-home at 3716 Springfield in Kansas City, Kansas. The dwelling was created, from conception to construction, by students in Studio 804, a design/build program at KU that focuses on sustainability ... and style.
The urban-core home home epitomizes Apartment Therapy's motto: "Simplicity and luxury are not mutually exclusive." No wonder it's sitting squarely among the site's top virtual House Tours. And Kansas Citians have extra incentive to drool at the slideshow: This beauty is still on the market.

This house is amazing. My brother helped build the house and yes It might not be the ideal shape from the outside but I wouldn't exactly say it's a barn. The house is very open and extremely beautiful on the inside. These boys and girls worked from dusk til midnight everyday for a semester. Give them some respect. Sheesh!!
Call me out of fashion, but... Doesn't it look like a barn? Wood exterior, with open air top, and ranch angle roofline? It was only developed several hundred years ago in the deep forests of ..nowhere Europe. .. It's a barn with high priced toilets. Architects! Sheeesh!!
This home is amazing. If you have a chance to take a look at it, do so. That said, the home's been on the market for quite a while...I'm not sure a $367k home in Rosedale has very broad appeal.
