Next Step – Making Plans

I still need to decide whether I want to make an offer on my California Bungalow. Before writing the offer, I decided to mock-up some plans to get a quick read on whether I could build anything interesting on the property. So I ran to the art supply store to pick-up some graph paper, a good mechanical pencil and ruler. Blick Art Materials on Raymond and Green in Old Town Pasadena is a pretty cool store. If you’re in the neighborhood it’s worth checking out.

A few hours and a half an eraser later, I had a sketch of my plans and a computer drawing of a whole new look for this neglected California Bungalow. Here is my initial sketch.
