hey guys,
We are getting close to getting the drawings out.... we have till tomorrow. And tomorrow we get to play with chainsaws on the site all day.... Seriously I am glad that we are achieving all of the goals that we set forth two weeks ago.

What is a roof? What is the job of an architect/ designer? How should one aproach designing neovernacularly in an established neighborhood?

Good Morning World,
We have a client for our house. We formally met the Evans Family today in studio and talked about the plan. I found out that all of the kids are active and like to play outside which goes along with our design. It is nice to have this checked off of our rediculously long list of stuff to do.

Well, the class had a meeting last night and we got a lot of decisions made. It feels weird, because we are planning out the rest of our college carreers (cross my fingers). I like this class.

We gave the paperwork to a family the other night, and it almost brought me to tears. Because their family, a married couple with 5 kids, was living in two hotel rooms... Their house burns a week ago. It is touching that we could help them or another family like them, but how many families are out there? Who decides who get help and who does not? I wish we could help them all.

Tonight is going to be a long one... We have a review tomorrow that will hopefully get us down to one design. That one design has to be "finalized" and delivered in drawings to the planning commission by dec 21, so we can be approved before the new year.

Wow, I set up a blog....
