if i were traveling & had lots of disposable income
There are a lot of architectural styles I love as far as housing goes. What if I could travel and instead of staying at a hotel chain (upscale or not), I could stay in a house designed by one of the architects I love? Like ... what if I could stay here:
instead of crashing on my sister’s couch when visiting Ann Arbor?
There is a site, PlansMatter, with a listing of more than 30 architecturally significant vacation rental homes. It shows photos, lists the details, pricing, and provides a link to where you can book the property. Worldwide, though most of the houses listed are in North America at the moment.
The site also has a list of hotels with amazing architectural designs. Most currently listed are in Patagonia.
The job I would like is scouting, testing, and photographing new additions for the site. Or a job reviewing them.
