...Designing My Own Path...

I would love to have an artist's studio, a yoga space, gallery and open living quarters all in one. Ideally I would build this on a hill, with a lower level studio.  The first floor will act as a yoga studio and display artwork (and also be a great space for gatherings with family & friends.)  The entry way can work as a dining area, and/ or home office.  The second floor will be the primary living quarters. Clean crisp white interiors.  Source Source Source Source Source Source Yoga Studio/ Gallery. Source Source

Mini version of last week's plan... As I continued to think about last week's plan, I decided I wanted to downsize it.  Although it is already condensed, I feel like the design could be even smaller, and have a twist, literally. And....The more I thought about it, the more intrigued to apply the Fibonacci Sequence to the plan.  Source Source Source Source

Last summer, when kayaking up at Lake Jean, I had the chance to explore the small island in the middle of the lake.  I loved the serene atmosphere, and wish I could buy the island and build a cottage on it. I would build the cottage off the ground, and gradually elevate each of the quadrants by a few steps.  A deck would decorate the entrance leading to the first level, the great room with large windows and a wood burning stove.  A few steps up, and the second platform would be the eat in kitchen.  The third level would include the 3-piece bathroom and laundry in the hall.  And finally the top floor would be the bedroom and closet.  I would love to be able to the outdoors from my bedroom window.

I love the rustic yet modern look of wood walls.  It's so versatile with a variety of design styles.
