I'm working on a new project and the client saw a house that inspires him ("Chateaux des Reves" by Architect John C. Henry).
The house can be seen here:
We're in the very early stages (site has been picked and bought, we're working on writing the program and determining budget, etc.)
This client so far has been a dream client, (his favorite answer to any design question is "whatever you think would be best, as long as it's really nice" and he's answer to budget questions is always "whatever it costs, I want it done right"). In the next week or so I'll be sitting down with the client and the builder to really hash out a firm budget ($200/s.f. has been thrown out but we need to find out how much above that we can go).
Anyone have any good additional info/pictures that would fit with this "style"? His original design desire was "Traditional French Colonial", them he saw this house and wants something fairly similar. Appreciate any/all help and/or pointers.
