Design Your Own Ranch House
Introduction:
Growing up, I learned a lot from my father, who spent countless hours in his workshop. He taught me how to tackle various household projects, so designing and building a ranch house seemed like a natural extension of those skills.
A Lifelong Dream:
I've always wanted to design my own ranch house but lacked formal architectural knowledge. Despite this, I've been quite handy since childhood and wasn't about to let that stop me. Ranch houses, with their single-story layout, seemed more straightforward, as they required less structural support.
Diving In:
Familiar with wiring, plumbing, and some basic construction methods, I decided to dive in. I got an architectural CAD program to start crafting my ranch house designs.
Challenges Ahead:
However, learning to navigate the CAD program was daunting. These programs are designed for professional architects, and ease of use isn’t their main feature. When designing a ranch house?"or even planning a bathroom?"there’s a lot more to consider than meets the eye.
Legal and Safety Considerations:
Legal designs require knowledge of more than just floor plans; foundations, fire safety codes, and load limits all play crucial roles. It took two years to finalize a few designs while learning these intricacies.
The Construction Phase:
I chose my favorite design, rallied some friends for help, and got started. Opting for the most ambitious plan?"a house with an internal courtyard?"was perhaps overly ambitious. It presented unique challenges, like the difficulty of excavating the basement precisely.
Unexpected Obstacles:
An unforeseen issue arose when I realized the courtyard entrance was too narrow for moving heavy construction equipment inside. Despite these hurdles, I'm thrilled to be building my own ranch house?"though I’m relieved it’s a journey I’ll undertake just once.
Embarking on this project has certainly been an adventure. Despite the challenges, the satisfaction of designing and building my own home makes it all worthwhile.
