[00:00.13] Spencer: Yeah. So Curtis, what would your dream house be like? Tell me about the kitchen, living room, yard.

[00:04.38] Curtis: Well, I've thought a lot about my dream house and designing it.

[00:07.13] Actually, that's the kind of work that my father does, so he said he could draw the plans up for me.

[00:13.63] But I've done a lot of art and I really want to work my art into the house.

[00:18.13] So the living room, I would like there to be kind of a frieze around the outside of the room where I actually do the art myself.

[00:27.64] Now, I used to do a lot of construction when I was younger, and so I would really like to take part in the process so that I have a kind of sense of ownership with the house that I've really built a part of that.

[00:40.38] The kitchen, I want it to be a very large space and next to a room that has a lot of media so that you can kind of pay attention to things or watch tutorials and recipes while you're cooking, follow along with your favorite chefs or cooking channels.

[00:55.63] I'd like a really big industrial refrigerator and a huge island that I can work with, as well as a massive sink for cleaning things.

[01:05.13] I used to work at a restaurant and I loved the dishwasher there because it was so quick and easy.

[01:09.63] So I would like a restaurant-style dishwasher in my kitchen, too.

[01:13.88] Spencer: Yeah. So tell me about – what would your yard be like?

[01:18.13] Curtis: I would like a lot of grass. I really love a yard with nice grass especially when you're playing soccer, you can get under the ball and have a lot of fun like that.

[01:29.13] Spencer: It's nice to have a big backyard to play sports.

[01:30.63] Curtis: Yeah. I think so as well.

[01:32.13] Spencer: What about your bathroom?

[01:34.38] Curtis: My bathroom. Well, I would like to have a kind of a spa in there, honestly. I would like to have a big bathtub.

[01:44.88] But I want my house to have geothermal heating.

[01:49.13] And if I have a geothermal heating system, I can also probably have a hot spring in the bathroom.

[01:54.38] I like it to be quite big and have a nice shower as well.

[02:01.63] Just very nice open area with nice sinks.

[02:05.39] I don't want to feel constrained in my bathroom.

[02:08.38] I don't want it to be small. It has to be big.

[02:10.38] Spencer: What about your living room?

[02:13.63] Curtis: My living room. One of the things that was really important to me for my living room again, is the art that I want to have a lot of details around the outside that are murals or friezes that I have actually created on the wall and so that there's almost a kind of entertaining sense about it.

[02:34.88] Just being in there before you turn on any other devices or televisions or anything like that. That there is kind of a artistic and comfortable feel to it.

[02:45.88] It doesn't feel sterile, it feels very homey.

[02:49.13] Spencer: Cool. Would you have a big garage?

[02:50.88] Curtis: I probably would have a big garage because I really love driving, and I used to race cars at the track.

[02:58.38] And for the purposes of doing work on cars, or any other DIY work around the house, I would like to have a really big nice garage.

[03:09.13] Spencer: Would you have any sort of like swimming pool or – I know you said you wanted a sauna in your bathroom but…

[03:14.88] Curtis: I would really like a portion that's maybe separate from the bathroom, that has shutters that open up.

[03:21.88] So on a nice night, you can actually open it and see out over the yard or whatever landscapes that the house is built next to.

[03:28.88] Spencer: That would be cool.

[03:30.13] Curtis: But I would like the area to be a little bit private, hopefully, surrounded by woods a little bit where you can't see your neighbors immediately.

[03:37.13] Spencer: Yeah, exactly.
