What is your dream house?
I love John Travolta's place because I love travelling. I look forward to getting it :P
And yours?
And yours?
My idea of a dream house is of a typical Taurus castle.The entryway is well lit with a hard floor, covered in rugs leading off in each direction. Along the walls are a few vanity items, such as some of my Grandpa's art (I'm saving the priceless stuff for my personal space) and my wife's photographs, and it has ready access to the second floor.
On the first floor, I would have the entertainment areas off to one side, such as the traditional American living room, complete with the brain rotting box. I would also have a fairly large library in there as well. Hard floors with comfortable rugs is still an absolute must. Fake leather chairs would make up the seating area in the library, and soft couches are essential for the living room. The other side of the first floor would have the rooms necessary for living, such as a kitchen, separate dining room, laundry room, and broom closet.
The second story would be split up into two sections as well. Above the entertainment side of the house, I would have two office, one for my wife, and the other for me. I would also have a server room, because I'm a nerd like that.
There would also be a dumb waiter between my office and the library. I would put my office in the corner so that I can have two walls of windows, and do what I can to isolate my wife's office, because she's a photographer, and by the time I can afford a house like this, we'll have enough artificial light that she wouldn't need natural light for her pictures. (I don't expect her to spend too much time in there anyways, unless she's editing pictures.) The other side would hold the master bedroom and a guest room, both equally as large, and with laundry chutes, but no dumb waiters connecting to the kitchen, because, by golly, if you're hungry, go downstairs. Also, even though the upstairs would be carpeted, I would make the floors rigid and thick enough that they didn't squeak... That's important to me as well.Even though this is my dream house (and I've obviously put a lot of thought into it), there are many other things that I would want long before I even though of making this particular dream a reality, and few of these more important dreams are as physical as the house would be.

My dream home is insane, would cost millions to build and be totally awesome.
Basically, it's a globe held up from the ground with a single pillar, in which there is also an elevator. It's in the forest, near a river (from which I get power) and the mountains, but in a part of the world that is mild in weather all year. Anyhoo, the house is in the middle of a round clearing with grass and flower gardens. There's a fence around the estate, and it's just forest outside that. There is no road access, however you could take a boat down the river to the nearest town, or hike for a few days in the forest. The normal way of getting to it will be by helicopter.
There are maybe four or five floors. The elevator lets you out of each one and there are entrances to each of the rooms there. The whole building's exterior is actually made of glass, but the kind that if you have electricity going thorugh it (or not through it--I don't remember which), it is opaque and probably white. If I can, it'd change colour throughout the day, from white at noon to black at night. And/or it's a one way mirror thingy, so I can see out but no one can see in. Lots of light in the whole place.
The whole place is ridiculously computerized and self-cleaning and the whole shebang. I think the coolest thing is that the rooms are all going to be round in shape and there's a projector mounte in the ceiling of each room and it swivels and projects on any wall in the room (since they're essentailly just one wall). The whole place looks super clean, no seams or edges. Most of hte stuff is invisible and/or hidden. For example, the desk won't come out from the wall unless I want it to.
Lots of space and stuff. It'd be awesome.
Funny how my dream home is totally isolated.
