AND SO, IT BEGINS...

Bland Designs?

We've been fans of Channel 4's Grand Designs since forever. Kevin McCloud is revered in our household and our 9 year old aspires to be an Architect. So what do we do now, that our heads are filled with all these delusions of grandeur, and we want to rebuild a new home?

1) We started by scoring the internet for architects that did all these awesome homes and wiled hours away, just dreaming of what a new home would look like. Our top 3 picks so far are a) Makk Architects, b)AD Lab, and c) HYLA Architects all 3 design very well for our tropical climate and appear to have some critical acclaim. I mean, hey. You want to dream big right?

2) We look into our bank accounts, close, repeat. We peek at balance with one eye closed and it still doesn't make a damn difference. Argh. 

3) We decide to measure out our house anyway. 


Hey! If we do decide to re-develop our home, it could potentially reap over 3500 sq feet of living space over 2.5 stories! More if we won the powerball and could build a basement!

4) check our bank balances again, cry a little

5) we bite the bullet anyway and give these architects a call. Let's see what happens next!
