Something to Dwell On
My dad and I have been looking for things to do together recently. We've taken a few great trips. Several years ago we took a trip to Alaska, which was a fun adventure. Recently, we met up in Paris for a week and explored the more cultured side of life. This past weekend, we stayed a little closer to home and visited the vast metropolis of Hillsborough, NC. As a graphic designer, I'm interested in lots of areas of design, one of which is architecture. Dwell is a magazine that covers modern home design. Steph bought me a subscription last year. The magazine sponsors a competition each year that promotes pre-fab home design. The magazine has a national market, but strangely enough, both winners have built their homes in NC, just outside of Raleigh. Since it was so close, I thought it would be worth checking out the open house. When we arrived, we listened to a presentation by a pre-fab architect who plugged his website. We grabbed a shuttle and walked through the nexthouse. It was a good time with pop. It's fun to be able to share some of my interests with him. I'm looking forward to a fun friendship with dad... ummm... Glen.
