Dog Trot Architecture

The dogtrot, also known as a breezeway house, dog-run, or possum-trot, is a style of house that was common throughout the Southeastern United States during the 19th and early 20th centuries. The main style point was a large breezeway (instead of a hallway) through the center of the house to cool occupants in the hot southern climate.

The Japanese Art of Impermanence

Taken from the Japanese words wabi, which translates to less is more, and sabi, which means attentive melancholy, wabi-sabi refers to an awareness of the transient nature of earthly things and a corresponding pleasure in the things that bear the mark of this impermanence.
