I recently came across a house I'd designed about 3 or 4 years ago, built from a sketch I did, but which I never saw being built, or whether indeed they had built it, and it was a pleasant surprise to find it in finished form. It brought back some memories, some nice, some not so nice, and I'm not sure I would ever design something as heavy-handed as this again. My taste has evolved somewhat, but it was a worthwhile experiment at the time, when I wanted to screen off the front facade from the car porch and evening sun. It was a speculative project, meaning built for sale, and you gambling on whether it would find a buyer. Anyhow, I'm glad to see it built and occupied.
Anyways, as a post script; here's the sketch from that liberal-marker-pen era...
