HouseDesignFeaturesaPolyhedronSh 2 On the other side of the pool?
Would the neighbors gripe?

I want to build a casita type thing on the other side of our pool. We have a big yard, the pool divides it, and only the landscaper goes over there (and its a pain to drag the mower over).

So I want to put a little hideaway over there. Something I could use as a yoga studio, home office, or just to chill out in.

The polyhedron cottage above appeals, but is probably too edgy for my spousal unit. And I’ve no idea how to build it.

I could buy an “office pod”:

But that is too “work” oriented. Not my thing.

I like this one:

Envision it in stucco, with slightly more slanted roof, and with white framing for the windows, to match the side of the house it would face. Oh… and a big honking AC sticking out somewhere (-:

    Make it the entrance to a underground range that runs the length of your yard.

    Am I that obvious? I just wanted something to cover up the entrance.

    I would like to shoot at home. A few shooters at our club have their own private ranges, which would be uber convenient.

    An underground range at your house is as likely as a deep pool.

    I have an 8 foot pool….

    Oh… my pool is plenty deep. I just had to be built up higher because my lot is over the largest rock in Souther Utah apparently. They started digging, got to 6 feet, couldn’t go farther, so they went up. It was traumatic at the time, but now we like the way it turned out.
