Why build a house better suited to LA than Oregon rain in OREGON!!!!??? Still nice craftsmanship, but now is the time to make buildings suited for their environment and stop over using HVAC to make them tolerable. Good point Amy.

I love design, but design that's out of place isn't really worth much, is it? Why would you build something that is better suited somewhere else?

I have heard that the owners love the space and I haven't had any specific complaints, so hopefully all is well with the windows. The glass is single pane - not insulated - and the detailing is very Schindler House - esque, meaning it's probably more suited to a Los Angeles climate than the Oregon rain. If I had drawn any details I would post them, but I did all my sketches on random pieces of plywood and 2x4s...
