    Perhaps I'd feel differently were I rich enough to comfortably afford a house of that size and cost.

    Theme-park garishness combined with a lack of basic stylistic knowledge on the part of designers and builders seems to be the way it's done now.

    External validation has a lot to do with it.

    That was of course assumed;)
    Most, if not all, of those who know that have designed and built their own homes say that it was something that while they're glad they did it, they'd never do again.

    detailed drawings are obviously required, but aren't enough. everything needs to be prototyped beforehand.

    I heard this home is completed.

    Anyone know if that's true.

    Thanks,
