The "suburb" I live in was built cheesily so that returning Korean War vets would have a place to live. Under 900 SF, corners aren't square, the plumbing and electrical work was done by third-graders with inferior materials, and the design precludes any sort of expansion that doesn't involve knocking down at least half of the house. No insulation, we put some in the "attic" ourselves. The thought of the City Assholes wanting to preserve "values" is laughable. If they were concerned about that they wouldn't have planted magnolias and Chinese elms as street trees and then neglected trimming them -- giving the residents a free lesson in the concept of "self pruning". Apparently some SoCal architects are building (or threatening to build) a house out of multiple stacked containers -- adding insulation, glass, DESIGN, etc. The picture looks fine. -- Cheers, Bev You know it's time to clean the refrigerator when something closes the door from the inside. |
