I think that coming out of high school I got too easily sucked into the mindset that you need a high profile career in order to be successful. I went into first year looking at becoming a Lawyer or something of that nature when in reality I think the title looked more appealing then the actual job itself. In my first year of university I realized that I love being creative and I want to be able to be working at something I love all of the time. I've decided that I want to become an interior designer. I guess for you to understand this you will have to learn a little bit more about me... interior designing and design itself has always been a passion of mine. At the age of 10 my first ever DS game was an interior design simulator, and I remember playing that game all the way down to Boston on a family road trip. I also used to watch home design shows as a kid... like a lot of them. I guess I just never thought it would be something I could have as a career. I know this is a silly example but its the truth. I love organization, colours and styles of homes, I know that I would love to be an interior designer. I just finished first year so my goals and aspirations in life may change, but at this point in my life I know this is where I want to end up. So I guess we will have to just wait and see. Dream Home:So I have decided to design my dream home over the summer. Just as styles and whats 'in' shift and change, my style does too. But I know what I like and what I don't. So for the next couple of months I will be posting my dream house room by room to show a little bit of me and what I love! Floor Plans:Here are the floor plans for the house! I made them and they include everything that I will be designing over the next couple of months. Its obviously a very simple plan but it all makes sense in terms of space and an open layout with lots of room to pull things together. This is post #1, the exterior and floor plan.
Exterior:While I don't know exactly what I would in terms of the architectural form of the house, I know that I love white houses with dark roofs. There is something so clean and simple about them and it just looks so nice against the green of the grass and trees. So no, my dream house does not look exactly like this, but this gives you the idea :) I hope you will follow along and watch as the house develops and is designed! I think in the end it will be fun to watch it all come together! xo
