An interesting take on "excess". Of course nothing's more "green" than reusing existing buildings, but it this really the best use of all this area and volume?

Churches like this are best returned to some other public use until the community needs them again as worship space.

Imagine this as a community center; a small-business incubator; a senior center, or any number of other shared uses.

But a private residence? Not for me, thanks!

Let's hope the McMansion era is gone for good - what more evidence do you need that area and volume aren't the definition of value or good design?

Barbara and Paul - you're an inspiration to anyone thinking about a new home or remodeling project! A great living experience can be had in a very small home with a lot of love and a little personality!

Thanks for the lovely example of Craftsman without the ubiquitous oak! There's so much flexibility with this style - historical accuracy isn't always the best choice!
