We have looked at two sets of plans from the architect so far, and she's revising again. The first set was almost the same as my hand sketches, but drawn to scale and drafted in CAD. On the second set she threw us a curve-ball and changed major stuff, which we didn't like. For instance, she had a stairway at the front of the house and the dining room at the back. Why put a stairway in front and cut off some of the views of the water and wetlands? She had a reason, but we said we wanted the dining room to have the water view - put the stairs at the back. She had some other things that we didn't understand, but got to like them when she explained the purpose. So now she's revising again, and hopefully we'll have another set next week. I haven't posted any of these to the blog since they're worse than the first!
Sounds like you have someone good working with you!
