The Cullen House from Twilight

Whether or not you are a fan of the movie or have even seen the movie Twilight, hopefully you can still appreciate the beauty of the house used on the set of Twilight as the "Cullen House". I myself have seen the movie and love both the movie and the house.

Haven't read the book yet but plan to soon...

This is an actual home in Portland, Oregon and the residence of the Hoke family. Skylab Architecture and architect Jeff Koval designed the home. Jeff talks about this home in an interview, read about it here.
I personally love the modern design of the home and the connection it has to the outdoors. The light is amazing and that bathroom, wow, I can only imagine how amazing it would be to use that shower! Also, the mix of all those glass windows and concrete floors against the warm hardwood floors and the texture you get from the outdoors is wonderful...

I like houses with so much light and open spaces, and so close to the outside spaces. Very inspiring!!

Hi there,I just finished watched Twilight and now in the middle of watching New Moon. Whar made me wonder is they have a different house for New Moon and the interior too.The first house is more modern and sophisticated whilst the new moon is more classic and old in style. What happen. Can anyone have the answer?Thanks
