“People can’t see what you’ve got,” said an observer to someone who was putting a decorative brick wall in front of his house.

“She built her house so you can’t see it from the road“, was expressed by a woman’s neighbors.

What’s this big deal about passers-by seeing what message you are sending out to the world, from the roadside view, is to be seen as what you’re worth?

Most often, this position, which is completely different from curb appeal, is to “show” the world your financial and social status.

Why is it important to the people who do it, and what does it say about their personality traits and characteristics?

What needs does doing such fulfill for them?

For whom is a house to be designed and built? And, for what purposes, and activities, is it being built?

What part does the front facade play in the complete outside design of a house? Is it the only outside part to be designed?

If you are a whole, complete person, who is stable and comfortable with your financial and social status, you should have no need, or desire, to care how passers-by react when viewing your facade.

Houses should be designed and built, inside and outside, to the highest aesthetic levels for the functions of the structure and to reflect the personalities of the people who will use it.

What does the front of your house say about you? What does it mean to you? What are your reactions when seeing the front facades of other people’s?

Food for thought.
