The Slope Spark

The latest issue of Dwell Magazine, our design guide for this project, features "100 Homes We Love". So I went through it and counted: 32 houses on slopes! This is enough information for me to surmise that just like blondes, sloped lots are more fun. They possibly force more creativity and provide a canvas for high excavation bills. I might guarantee a less than ordinary dwelling. Thank goodness we don't like ordinary.

A "studio" by architect Carol A. Wilson featured in Dwell, #035. It reminds me of ours (except for the waterfront, trees, and lack of a first floor. Oh and ours will be a house, not a studio. What?!)
