# I'm trying to relearn how to animate. Argh.
I'm designing and building and will eventually be living in this house. It's going to be made out of steel. Not funny. Not a kitten. But it has an atrium.
Sorry about the crap appearance. I forgot to change autocad over to the white background.

# Two.
I guess this is a monstrosity by European standards.

Ouch. Now I'm embarrassed. At least I'm not cutting any trees for wood.

# Looks great
Plenty of scope for solar cells/roof vegetation. Can I live with you?

# The fortress.
Solar cells are hidden away on a different part of the property. I've also got a blueberry orchard going in next year. But you have to drive to get there. It's a pretty big property.

# Copters!
I just knew better than posting this. But to be honest the garage is about the size of a rink. Oh dear. I hate cars with a passion. My garage is for building bicycles. I hope that redeems me a bit. :)

# Thanks. And nope.
I just spent years looking at what I like, and taking notes. Bauhaus books. Frank Lloyd Wright. A guy named Eichler. I just stole a bit from each of them. The basic building idea is to use a fairly inexpensive steel building supplier. That way I have a shell. Then I can just work on the inside, slowly. I've already been sitting in this stinking rv for a year without power. It's a long slow process. Argh, it's midnight. I'm outta here!
