| Love it, special mentions go to the pantiles and the oval flowerbed. The whole model is brilliantly executed and works together as a whole. Tim (20 years ago, 11-Apr-04, to lugnet.build.arch, FTX)

I can see why you'd have to tear it down. That's a lot of window packs. And (...) (20 years ago, 9-Apr-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott, lugnet.general)

| Hi Deborah,It was nice to see your MOC creation of the Cliff House it brought me back some nice memories of my last visit to San Francisco where I had a very romantic breakfast with my wife.

A great way to recycle broken trees or after a dog or a kid shewed on the tree! The effect is great for outside furniture (...) (20 years ago, 8-Apr-04, to lugnet.build.arch, FTX)

| (...) Deborah, I really like your work. There's a nice organic component to it that you rarely see in MOCs. You also have a great way of making interesting terrain for the building to be built on. Thanks, George (20 years ago, 8-Apr-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.town, FTX)

I've created spiral stairs too, but never thought of (...) (20 years ago, 8-Apr-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.town, FTX)

| I really like this one too. I especially like the curved wall and the way you did the roof (I'm going to borrow that design idea sometime). The two-level effect is very cool, too. Bruce (21 years ago, 6-Apr-04, to lugnet.build.arch, FTX)

| I love the curved wall with the windows. Usually when you see a curved wall, it curves outward instead of inward. Besides the inward curvature, your wall has 2 sizes of windows in it. Nice work! (21 years ago, 6-Apr-04, to lugnet.build.arch, FTX)
