Wednesdays Works

As I have stated in previous posts about writing and sketching my thoughts, I am going to make a weekly post of anything I have worked on in the previous week.

The first image is of a stone archway that could be incorporated into a house that might be between the kitchen and dining/living room. I feel this is a good place for it as the kitchen will have a natural material for the counter-top and will give you the feeling of being in nature as you cook meals. The other place you may find the stone archway would be at the side of the house providing access from the front yard to the back, with a decorative wrought iron gate.

The next image is an idea I have of what my future house could look like, if I ever have the opportunity to custom build it. The round turret would house a spiral staircase that leads to a library, and within the library there would be two comfortable reading chairs and a small side table. The spiral staircase would be the only access that visitors know of until I show them the hidden doorway through one of the bookshelves that leads to the hallway between bedrooms. I am inspired by Medieval and Gothic Architecture and therefore want to use many of those elements in my design.

I have a few more ideas floating in my head and each will I will post what I have sketched in the previous week.
