Moving to a New House [cue tears]
Moving to a new house can be a really exciting time in a person's life ... or it can suck when you are moving out of a house that you felt was really special.
Life of an Architect World Headquarters is moving to a new location … which means I am moving out of my house and moving in to a new one. While the change is positive, I am a little melancholy about actually moving out of my house. For a bunch of reasons that I don’t think anybody cares about (unless your name is “Bob”, “Michelle” or “Kate”), we sold our home. I suppose I shouldn’t be too surprised because everything in my personal history told me that this was going to happen … this is was the 5th house my wife and I have bought and sold since we became married almost 20 years ago.The good news is that we basically sold our house immediately after putting it on the market, so no stress there. The better news is that the people who bought it aren’t planning on tearing it down and building a McMansion on our lot (which seems to be the natural order of things based on where we lived).In an ironic turn of events, I started ‘Life of an Architect’ during the first year that we lived in this house and over the years, I have written almost 40 articles about various aspects associated with my house and the challenges an architect faces in their own home. Do I fix this" Can I fix that" Metal siding would look amazing over here … All...
