THE OCTAGON

A brief yahoo image search (type "Octagon House Images" into yahoo) revealed that I am not alone in drawing up plans for a house of octagonal design. There are some venerable old Octagonal houses, mostly back east, and some newer funkier versions. None that I could find were wrapped around a central courtyard as in my design, but some of these plans are decidedly superior to my own. That's to be expected given my status as an architectural neophyte. I may have to revisit my drawings. Don't worry folks, I'll get this right. It may take me a month of bedtimes, but I'll get it right.
