We've tried to design a house that is open and functional, creative and can handle lots of people because we believe that it is "not for us alone."
But what is it going to look like? If you've seen some of the other pics, you've probably been wondering if its not just a big box. Yep, that's what it is. Our goal all along has been to build as much square footage for as cheap as we can. Our architect, Jen Martin of Elements Design has clearly helped us achieve that.
Here's a fun rendering of what the outside is going to look like. . . .
- a big modern barn was the goal
- straight lines to keep building costs down
- two stories, 10 foot ceilings on the bottom, 9 foot on the top
- lots of windows, combination of storefront and aluminum
- corugated metal siding, with cedar siding
- 2 big roll-up garage doors, one in the living room and one in the school room
I'll try and upload the floor plan as soon as I can. . . . T.
