I've actually put a good deal of time into what I'd want though I suspect I could never afford even a modest version. I would like a 4-5 acre lot along the California cost, preferably in either San Diego or Santa Barbara counties, in which my lot hold both banks of a small stream or river. I would like it very much if there was a slight hill nearby where I could build my house (not to big of a house but some where between 3k and 5k sq. ft.) and in the lower laying area I'd like to build a small dam and dig a pond area behind the dam which I would use for generating a modest amount of hydro power. The rest of the grounds would be planted with all manner of fruit trees, flowers, and decreative plants and I would have a nice walking path which my family or guests could use.

The main house would have a large basement which would be converted into a pool/bar area and have french doors providing accress to the yard thus making entertaining easy. The rest of the house would be two stories with the attic converted into the master suite. I'd have 6 bedrooms besides the master suite (4 for the four kids I want, 1 for my study/office, and an extra as a guest room). It would have 4' wide solid wood doors for every door way, lots of old fashioned fancy windows to lighten the place up (but double paned to keep the house cool) and the whole house would be done in a French Proviencial style and would have lots of patio and balacony space so people could enought the wonderful climate.. I've just always like the proviencial look.

Lastly, I want an out doorbrick BBQ, a pool and a spa. They would be arranged around a partially covered outdoor patio area with lots and lots of flowers and green trees near by. That's my dream house.

Always thought it would be cool to buy an old missle silo and convert it into living space. Similar to this

Unfortunately I had to go and get married.

It's ok. Susie Qs are parked in fixed foxholes around the perimeter, so they are ready to be used at ALL times against aggressors or unwanted guests.

it is.. also it's not very accurate picture of my future house, as it is missing whole bunch of guns and weaponry. This resembles me of my guest house.

Gave some thought to such dreams. Some more doable than others but tried to figure as well how or who would do them, else how to represent them.
So in an impromptu excercise, heres my list of known architects who I assume would be good shots for your houses:

Inmortal Wombat - Peter Vetsch
Azazels - Richard Meier
Mr Fun - Glenn Murcutt
Mad Monk - Tadao Ando
Stefu - Frank O Gehry
Buck Birdseed - Gae Aulenti (HA!) But, I'd try Zaha Hadid.
Geeslaka - Moshe Safdie
ADG - Antoine Predock
Pekka - Morphosis
Agathon - Antonio Gaudi
Urban Ranger - Ieoh Ming Pei
Zero - Alvaro Ortega
Oerdin - Ken Ronchetti

I'm a guy. I can care less where I live. Right now I live in a manufactured home to save money. Long as it's clean and not filled with pests and rodents, that's fine by me. I also like to live in a halfway decent neighborhood. Actually I love my neighborhood now, because all my neighbors are old people . Nice and quiet- no loud music to annoy me. And I don't have to worry about noisy little kids that will grow up to be teenagers that break into my house (most teens in my city have no morals)

I don't really have a dream house. The only dream I have is a house filled with hot naked chicks that want to please me.

LTEC!, I hate to admit, but I don't know anything about architechts...who is morphosis?

Smiley, Seriously, you have great talents I am impressed with the new version, it's just like something out of my book!

AH, NICE HOUSE! How much you paid for it? I'm just interested how much is it in Australia for a very nice house like that. Congrats, you made it

Jon Miller, 150 000 for the hangar, or the house? Because if for the house, definitely worth it if you need it. Man you could get a small plane there if it had a short runway and licenses cleared.. that would be pretty cool!
150 000 is outrageously cheap if the house was decent too.

If situated on an island, it better be a jungle. Otherwise, I'd prefer the desert, with it's breathtaking views. a small shallow lagoon where my Yacht will be anchored. The house will be a 3-story building, with a large greenhouse near it. Half of the ground floor will be an entrance hall, with stairs and an elevator leading to the upper hall. Also, there will be a large guestroom. It would be neatly decorated. There will be a study and a 3 bedrooms on the second floor. The study would have an elevator of it's own to the basement, which we be the place of my Laboratory, and my various toys. In two separate rooms, of course. Only a quarter of the 3rd floor would be under a roof. That quarter will house the kitchen. The rest would be the place for a dinning table, and a pool. Also, there would be a garage, with two cars, one of them a sports car, and the other a 4x4. Both would be Fuel-Cell fueled. some 50 meters away, there would be a Helipad, and a hangar near it, with a VTOL aircraft parked in it. I could also say that all of this would be meaningless without the beautiful woman I'd love greatly, who'd be the mother of my 3-4 great kids. But there is no point in describing them. That's it for me. A new-age green megalomaniac american dream hybrid.
