Dear Architect:
Please help me design a house. I am not sure what kind of house I want, you can design it in accordance with your habits.
The number of bedrooms in the house is between 2 and 45. Your design should be flexible and variable, can easily increase or reduce the number of bedrooms. After you take the design artwork to me, I will decide to go to a few bedrooms. In addition, you should give me the cost of each program, I will choose it.
I finally selected design, and it is necessary to be lower than the house I have now. In addition, you have to make sure that there is no shortcomings in the new house (now the kitchen floor of this house is always crowded, the insulation of the wall is not ideal).
When you design, remember to save your annual maintenance costs. That is to say, there should be more cost of high aluminum products, ethylene resins or composites (if aluminum products are not used in your design, please explain the cause of the reason).
The house should have the most modern style, you should use the latest building materials, because I want it to be the latest architectural concept and model room for architectural trend. It should also be noted that in the kitchen, you must be able to put down my 1952 Gibson Electric Refrigerator.
Remember, the house you designed is serving our whole house. Before design, you must exchange our son, daughter-in-law, daughter, and son-in-law. My mother-in-law will live in a few days every year, and she also has a saying of this house. You must carefully weigh all these people's suggestions and make the correct decision. However, I still have to keep my final decision on the design.
Don't take the sub-branch festival problem to bother me. Your job is to design the overall structure, style and layout of the house, please pay attention to the macro level. A small problem like carpet color, this will not discuss it. But please remember my wife like the carpet of blue color.
Now you don't need to care about the specific matters of housing construction. You should first take a detailed engineering plan and specification. After I approved your plan, I hope that my house can be capped within 48 hours.
When you design a house, you must think that one day I will sell the house. This house must be attractive to various potential users. Therefore, before you finish the designed release, you must make sure all the residents in this neighborhood like your design.
I suggest you take a look at our neighbors' covered houses. We like that house very much. Many of the features of the house are what we need, especially the 75-foot-length swimming pool. According to your design experience, I believe that can add such swimming pools for our house on the basis of do not increase the cost.
Please prepare a complete design artwork. Not necessarily this time, it is designed very well because this document is only used for architectural bidding. However, once a picture, you have to be responsible for any design changes that may happen in the future.
You will be very excited to be able to undertake such challenging work! Of course, the choice of any new technologies and new materials must have to go through my consent. On the basis of my authorization, you have a high freedom in design. Therefore, please tell me your new ideas and new plans in time, I believe that similar authorization work is not too much.
Also attached: My wife just told me that she did not agree to most of the above. As an architect, processing users in demand is of course duties in you. I am very tired, there is no way to sort out a unified advice. If you can't properly solve this difference, I will go to other architects.
Also attached: Maybe what I need is not a house, maybe it is a travel trailer. Please give me enough suggestions on this issue.

Dear Mr. Architect,
Please design and build me a house. I am not quite sure of what I need, so you should use your discretion.My house should have between two and forty-five bedrooms. Just make sure the plans are such that the bedrooms can be easily Added The Blueprints To Me, I Will Make The final Decision of what I want. Also, Bring me the cost bowdown for Each Configuration SO That I can Arbitrarily Pick One.
Keep in mind that the house I ultimately choose must cost less than the one I am currently living in. Make sure, however, that you correct all the deficiencies that exist in my current house (the floor of my kitchen vibrates when I walk across it And The Walls Don't Have Nearly Enough Insulation In Them).
As you design, also keep in mind that I want to keep yearly maintenance costs as low as possible. This should mean the incorporation of extra-cost features like aluminum, vinyl, or composite siding. (If you choose not to specify aluminum, be Prepared to explain your decision in detil.)
Please take care that modern design practices and the latest materials are used in construction of the house, as I want it to be a showplace for the most up-to-date ideas and methods. Be alerted, however, that kitchen should be designed to Accommodate, Among Other Things, My 1952 Gibson Refrigerator.
To insure that you are building the correct house for our entire family, make that you contact each of our children, and also our in-laws. My mother-in-law will have very strong feelings about how the house should be designed, since she visits us at least once a year. Make sure that you weigh all of thses options carefully and come to the right decision. I, however, retain the right to overrule any choices that you make.Please do not bother me with small details right now Your job is to develop the overall plans for the house:.. get the big picture At this time, for example, it is not appropriate to be choosing the color of the carpet However, keep in mind that my wife likes blue. .
Also, do not worry at this time about acquiring the resources to build the house itself. Your first priority is to develop detailed plans and specifications. Once I approve these plans, however, I would expect the house to be under roof within 48 hours.
While you are designing this house specifically for me, keep in mind that sooner or later I will have to sell it to someone else. It therefore should have appeal to a wide variety of potential buyers. Please make sure before you finalize the plans that there IS a consENSUS OF The Population in My Area That They Like The Features this house.
I advise you to run up and look at my neighbor's house he constructed last year. We like it a great deal. It has many features that we would also like in our new home, particularily the 75-foot swimming pool. With careful engineering, I believe That You Can Design This Into Our New House without Impacting The Final Cost.
Please prepare a complete set of blueprints. It is not necessary at this time to do the real design, since they will be used only for construction bids. Be advised, however, that you will be held accountable for any increase of construction costs as a result of later design changes.You must be thrilled to be working on as an interesting project as this! to be able to use the latest techniques and materials and to be given such freedom in your designs is something that can not happen very often. Contact me as soon as possible with your company ideas and plans.
PS: My wife has just told me that she disagrees with many of the instructions I've given you in this letter As architect, it is your responsibility to resolve these differences I have tried in the past and have been unable to accomplish this.. . If you can't Handle This Responsibility, I will help to find aNother Architect.
PPS: Perhaps What I Need is not a house at all, but a travel trailer. Please advise me as so..
