“Twilight” follows a young girl named Bella Swan who moves across the country to Washington state, where she meets the vampire Edward Cullen. The story goes on to chronicle the trials and tribulations of their romance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The story and fun performances are one of the things that bring audiences coming back.

You may already know that the story of \u201cTwilight\u201d takes place on Washington state\u2019s Olympic Peninsula. But did they actually use the state of Washington for filming? Turns out, the filmmakers found the house they chose in Portland, Oregon<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remaining in the Pacific Northwest maintained the vibe that they were looking for, and it\u2019s no question that they made the right decision. According to an article on Velvet Ropes<\/a>, the directors found the house in an architecture magazine called Portland Spaces. They go on to describe the origin of the home: \u201cJeff Kovel, the Twilight House architect, designed this home as his first solo project with his own firm, Skylab Architecture. The home was completed in 2001 after construction took 14 months. I was going to be sold to someone from New York, but they backed out after the events of 9\/11 which caused Jeff Kovel to move into his own house.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many fans of the movie see the house and naturally wonder, \u201cWhere is the Cullen house from \u2018Twilight\u2019 located?\u201d However, Jeff Kovel has a different name for it according to an article by the Wall Street Journal<\/a>. \u201cMr. Kovel calls it the \u2018Hoke House\u2019 for its real-life owner, John Hoke, the director of footwear design at Nike. Mr. Hoke bought the home, also built on spec, just a few days after it hit the market in 2007, Mr. Kovel says\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s clear from this interview that the home was a true labor of love for Mr. Kovel and that the home meant a lot when he built it. Fans will be happy to know that the home is essentially as it was when it was filmed for the movie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
