Help building / designing a dream house.?
I am beginning to put my dream of beginning to design/build my dream house. My ideal is to have a "castle" like architecture in a reasonable size of a 2 story house with a 3rd story level for stargazing... etc etc. I have taken drafting and design throughout middle school and high school on the good ol' T-squares, but I have yet to use AutoCAD. Should I buy a copy of it? Also, who makes "castle" like houses? I want to mix medieval with modern. Please help me get started on realizing my dreams =) On a side note, I do realize this does not happen over night. I do realize I have to go to an actual architect engineer and more processes to finalize my design, and other guidelines, but I am open to what else I have to do.

- There's this website called Icovia that i use to design stuff and you could use that thet for the floor plan. Another thing you could do is try and draw out what you need. To mix modern and medival, try having a pond instead of a moat, or blue flowers! Use stone, not brick or siding and try surfing the web looking at pics of castles to try and get some ideas. Here's the link to the website i mentioned: http://www.icovia.com/landingpages/?gclid=CN_o09jylpICFQG5PAodXW_Onw And can someone please help me? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ag0lrgtQj9b9QWRVK4i1nvPsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20080927144747AAlRdI6 please and thank you?!~!?
