It all started from my Kawada Lego-like building blocks.  When I was a child, I would always tag along with my mother when she went to her friends' houses. They were beautiful and large houses.  Houses with swimming pools, a tree house in the backyard, courtyards ... When I come home, I would build them in miniature using my Kawada blocks.  I would build, demolish, and rebuild new houses each time.  My sister then suggested that I draw them before I demolish the houses to record for remembrance. Now, as an adult and an architect, I thought, the plans were good.  They make sense.  Garage with access to kitchen to the dining hall to the living room :D I still have the notebook. Many more pages to scan!  I might be in middle school at these years where I build blocks...
