[..]>Suz,
Looking at some of your ideas, I wondered if you have built any houses
according to the floor plans on your site?

yes I have. I had drawn the plans, then built, fixed problems, adjusted the
plan, etc. a number of times. I made other house styles too, just haven't
uploaded the scans. I'll have to find those.

what I have built right now is just an all-white prototype (of the 16x32
townhouse) from which I had expected to make a row of similar ones -- on an
incline, like in San Francisco. (finally, a use for pink!) I have no pictures
though.

I almost died when I saw pictures in the new LEGO book of the SAME houses, built
at LEOLAND scale. blew me away. I'm still absorbing all the details of how they
built theirs. They can get away with so much more at that larger scale. Not to
mention having unlimited materials!

My drawings don't show it, but I built each level with a layer of tile in
between. So one lifts off the next. Only a few studs hold them in place.

I got discouraged when thinking of how many old-style garage doors I'd want,
also corner castle walls in many colors. But since then (2 yrs ago?) my little
colection of house parts has grown. I could probaby build at least 4 different
townhouses now.  Gosh, that'd be fun. one of these days.

All the details on your ideas page
are great--very innovative use of pieces.

Thanks!

I noticed that my site is on the .arch sidebar. Thanks, Todd! Makes me feel like I really need to find time to work on my (CAD only) skyscraper.
