I particularly like the south elevation, with *seven* different window styles
and sizes.

Honestly, it's a nightmare. There are spatial problems (inadequate space
for some areas and vice versa for others) and missing elements all over the
place even given the fact that you want to have a simple rectangle house.
Don't get married to your own design ideas that put you at odds with a
designer who is only trying to be on your side and tell you that such and
such won't work. I fact this problem too many times.

Your eraser (or delete button) is your best friend. A saying all architects
should learn early.

I never erase. I crumple. (I draw in ink.)
