Another wierd house
« on: February 03, 2008, 02:18:30 PM »

This one I saw on my way home from a job in a very industrial area in Bridgeport Ct near the docks.  The photos kinda crappy because the owner was outside and glaring at me so I had to be quick

We have thought of doing something similar to piss off one of our neighbors we don't like :laugh:  My wife and I both like it

And take it as a compliment.

I love weird architecture, but not clutter. I've already got the house planned that I'll build one day when I'm a millionaire (read: not bloody likely) and it's all sleek metal and bizarre balconies intertwined with log-house rustic. Too many walls with roughly hewn rock surface (so they're climbable), a glass spiral staircase, 2nd floor hallway with glass floor, greenhouse/studio with full-size trees growing in it, etc....
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

if we ever had money. With birds loose in it. :zoinks:

Arboretum.  There's one right down the street from my favorite lumber yard.  I find that funny for some reason.
I came to this world with nothing
and I leave with nothing but love,
everything else is just borrowed.

Fuck it, we'll do it live.
