Getting Your Imagination unstuck
Making a home requires the imagination to make use of our existing surroundings.
One great trick for getting your imaginations unstuck is to stop trying to think about the home you have.
Instead, think about the life you live, and how you’d live in some other house. Then you can take the creative ideas you’ve come up with, and apply them to the home you have.
The COLONIAL HOME CHALLENGE is a Getting Unstuck Game for all of us.
Click the link and you’ll see a house description. Then you’ll see plans that use the very same house reused in numerous ways to meet the needs of different families.
Now it’s your turn. Imagine a family -- possibly your own....
How could YOU use the house? If you can’t find a solution for your needs, send us a description.
If it’s really difficult we might try to solve it as a group!
