Bio Home

One of my goals to achieve in this life is to build, and live in a completely self sufficient "modular" home. I know this is the cliche dream of any aspiring designer, architect or just anyone who is smart. But its ok, I am exempt from this cliche as I am neither smart, nor am I a designer, nor am I a budding architect. I just have this compulsive desire to build one out of light color wood, and corrugated metal, and bamboo flooring, the whole nine yards, it would even jut out on the edge of a small hill in some grasslands, if not in Colorado, then in an exotic foreign country, possibly the flatlands of South Africa. My module would be provide its own electricity from the sun, it would have a roof garden, it would have its own fireplace, and the entire think would be windows so that in the summer you could open up the side of the house to catch a breeze with the fan running.

Later on, when I am about thirty seven, my module would appear on the cover of I.D. Magazine, or Architects Digest. I would be wearing probably a flannel, some sort of ill fitting light washed jeans, and a pair of horrendous boating shoes, or cranky New Balances. I would be very tired looking, probably wearing glasses and without a haircut for the past 2 years (due to the stresses of building a module, on a budget!).

Either way, it would be a fun goal to achieve, after my Agency settles itself. Hopefully soon.
