Little House

I enjoyed this post about building a very small house.  Not everyone needs large amounts of living space.

I like the idea of a tiny house; and in fact, I would love to have one with a somewhat fantastical design. However, I live a larger lifestyle than most tiny houses can accommodate, and I'd have to be a master of personal organization, which at the moment I am not.

On the other hand, a three-story turret with a two-story expansion, with walkable parapet... Tiny Castle for the win. Five rooms might be big enough for me, and I'd have a turret and a sunning-place. Combine with high-efficiency solar roofing and a small wind-powered generator, plus a waterfall generator from the gutters to the cistern or spout... and maybe one of those amazing fuel-cell power boxes, too. Supagreen cassel. :)

Heck, I might as well look into architecture. Maybe I can design some award-winning houses in which I can hang my impending Nobel medals. ;)

I love castles. I also admire the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright and his ability to make a house blend with its landscape.
