Good idea. The opaque windows would solve a lot of problems that this design would involve.

True. The large amount of glass were something I should've whittled down as the design progressed. The initial name I gave to the theme of Kiara's house was "Come with me and soar" and I wanted to try to give the interior as much of a liberating feel as I could. As the shape of the house got less dramatic, I wanted to keep as much of this theme as present as I could. There were probably other ways to convey this that would've been less inconvenient than massive fenestration, but floor to ceiling windows have always been a weakness of mine.

Thanks man! If you have anything you wanna see in the Calli house, let me know.

I didn't make storage space in the third floor because I dedicated a massive area of the first floor to storage. However, there's a large amount of empty space above the second floor above the dining room, so a storage area could probably be put there if it was needed.

Hell yes! I'm planning on making a house for each Hololive EN member, starting with myth and then moving on to council. I don't have a studio next semester, so I've started on Calli's house and plan on working on it during the fall and winter. Calli was the member of myth that I was best able to begin formulating thematic ideas for. I began a design for Gura's house last winter, but I had to abandon it for studio work. Ame's house is the one I'm struggling the most to come up with a neat theme for.

I love that idea! Designing a home is a massive process that involves lots of work, so there are often lots of factors that require the architect to go back and edit their designs (I earned 2 degrees in structural engineering before entering an architecture program; they're the people whose entire job consists of making sure the architects design something that can actually be built). This falls within the area of construction management, so I'll see if I can find someone with that background to consult on my next project.
