Sketchy Plans

Rather than to try my hand at drawing up a concept of my own Cargotecture  (and ending up with a pile of crumbled pieces of paper),  I sought to use some free CAD software.   

While I consider myself pretty computer adept, I struggled with the trial software to get it to rotate objects.  Still, I was able to draw up a concept of the home that I have in mind.  I would not want an architect to dutifuly build off of these sketchy plans, lest I mistakenly construct an 18 inch replica of Stonehenge ala  "This is Spinal Tap".

My inability to rotate objects meant that I could not accurately show the notion of having most of the kitchen go against the wall of the guest wing. Moreover, I could not insert closets, most notieably lacking a coat closet in the formal front.

I also did not place where I would want a pantry, laundry area and a WC/Powder Room/ (or possibly a Wet Room), nor did it include the storage areas at the rear of each wing.
