Apple has long been revered for its amazing attention to design, from its iconic glass-and-steel retail stores to the sleek gadgets they sell inside. 

Apple was recently granted a patent for its glass cube store design, and it trademarked its store layout in 2013.

That minimalist aesthetic has become so well-known that it's difficult to see a boxy, contemporary home without comparing it to an Apple store. 

In honor of Apple's big product announcement today, our friends at Estately helped us round up 12 houses that feature the design details we've come to associate with this iconic company.

This home's boxy design is reminiscent of Apple's glass cube.
