Building shelters.

I don't know if you mean this in a literal sense but I'll answer in the only way I know how at the moment..

I've wanted to build a shelter for the past year and a half. I want to build a place where people feel at 'home'. You know that content, comfortable feeling you get when you walk into your house after a long day of work or school and wonderful food is cooking and there's always some type of noise and it just feels so good? I want to recreate that for everyone that hasn't felt it. I want everyone to have a wicked home-cooked meal and a nice, hot shower and.. just. God, I don't even know how to describe it. I want to give a home to the homeless because even those that live in houses don't know what 'home' is.

Ya know?

I don't know.

Bridges are great, they connect people... but a shelter to me is far more useful and much more needed.

Several people have mentioned "trial and error," and that was probably a part of the process. But less "error" than people might think. It was the Renaissance and a new science was emerging that allowed for the construction of these fabulous buildings. You also have to consider that the most magnificent buildings of the day, i.e., the churches, were constructed under the auspices of the rich and powerful, who could afford the best and brightest builders. AND also that for even the most commonplace of stone buildings, some of the best rock was easily available. Also remember that the biggest buildings took 3 to 5 generations of workers to build (over 100 years in some cases). What I find amazing is how, in the hand-to-mouth existence that most common people lived in the Middle Ages, that they went along with the orders of an opulent church that demanded such sacrifice. Such was the fear of fire and brimstone instilled by the "church," I suppose...a force still capable of intimidating much of the populace today.

I usually burn my bridges - I'm crap at maintaining relationships and networking.
