another house that i saw back in the day that i really like is the hale lana house in hawaii. i like how this home was designed to function in tandem with the surrounding nature, rather than being closed off to it. i feel like it would be an idyllic and peaceful place to get away from the hustle and bustle.

i really love architecture. for a while, i would look at architecture websites all the time to learn about it. there was one house that i always loved. you can see the full post here (you need to create an account to view all of the photos), but below are some photos of the house itself. i wouldn't have water around the house, because it would attract too many mosquitoes, but it has a nice aesthetic. i would definitely landscape differently. 👽
