I recently designed my own house. Lots of people say that and mean they did a sketch and then gave it to an architectual draftsperson or an architect. But I literally designed my house, produced all the drawings, specified every beam etc. Both the builder and surveyor commented individually that its been at least 15 years since they've seen drawings of a similar quality and were shocked when I provided the drawings printed on A1 Mylar. It seems that like boat design the architectural industry has dummed itself to A3 paper prints. Take some pride in your work when drafting.

can you please put up your house pic/design, even some screen shots would be great
I was in Austria a lot recently, saw some really wonderful things in Timber
I designed an octaganal summer house in 3d, got very carried away
i can t believe how much time designing by CAD takes I could have built 3 hulls in the time we spent detailing on pc
