Definitely Danvers for me!    But only the center sections.    That's still enough to get me a bedroom faaaaaaar enough away from Mr. Ma when he's snoring like a bandsaw.  Roll Eyes

Interesting thread! It would have to be the formidable Buffalo. I would just have the administrative part of the building built, and have the master bedroom up in one of the twin towers, and the guest room in the other.

I know I'm coming into this particular string majorly late, but, well, making a movie is time consuming work, don't have enough hours in the day!!

It's not exactly a Kirk but it's still pretty dang impressive...I'd love a complex like The Ridges:

I've often thought about designing a small scale (3500-4500 s.f.) house based on the kirk plan, just for the hell of it. I doubt it would be feasible due to cost and inefficiency, but if theres ever the day somebody walks into the architecture firm I work for and says "I want a kirk-house!", I'll be prepared.  Smiley
