Somehow you’ve gotten your dream home. The cabin in the mountains, penthouse downtown, castle nestled deep in the woods, nuclear bunker in the hills, or whatever. Whats the bit you’d add that might raise a brow from others? The fireman’s pole? The slide? The moat? The hidden room behind a bookshelf where you keep your stuffed animals?

    A tower. I’m dreaming of it since I was a child and it’s weirdly specific, made from wood with a stone base to the first floor, and the roof has a mechanism to unfold a 1-person balcony. It’s not to be above other people, it’s more like a “I’m seeing everything but I’m safe and only I can decide who’s getting in my tower” -thing. Plus: I love wind and fresh air and hate the feeling of being underground or even trapped in a box. Would base jump and day, but would not set a foot into an underground mine if you give me a million dollars. Some day I’ll have a tower… Actually waiting for the land prices around here to fall a bit to buy building ground, no joke. Don’t know if my wife says yes to doubling the house building money for a meager tower though, lol

      I feel you, mate. My dream is to build my own home, and yes, it’s going to be a wizard’s tower. I figure I’ll lay it out like a shorter, wider lighthouse so I can put the hard stuff like the bathroom and kitchen on the ground floor attachment/hall.
