October, 2004

We now see how we are meeting some of the design goals set for the architect as outlined in August, 2003 (the actual house is smaller than shown in that drawing).

The house is not visible until the final few feet. Coming up the drive (0.8 mile), one cannot see other houses or into the canyon. This gives the impression of remoteness and generates suspense: Is this really the right road? What does the house look like? When will we get there? Is this it? It seems too small.
