This man is much more sure of his construction abilities than I probably will ever be: > So if the roof collapses, it might be my fault... http://ludens.cl/pa

  Quote from the site regarding his house: "I wanted to avoid using buiulding (sic) material that tries to look like something it isn't, but with the siding I had no choice: ALL siding materials I can buy try to look like wood! So, unfortunately, my house is wrapped in faked wood. It doesn't look too bad, but I would have preferred something different." This drives me nuts as a home owner. I don't mind using synthetic materials in my house, but why are are they all skeuomorphic? Plus I love the way the house is framed with bricks and mortar. I wish more houses were still built like this in the US, but I suspect that labor would make it cost prohibitive.
