The house you designed and built for the consortium ‘could’ well end up serving the purposes of a few, but it will likely fall short of what makes a great house. Perhaps the consortium forgot to mention that an ocean view that would wow visitors was critical to their happiness.
Or that you needed a wheelchair ramp and internal lifts.
Or that they expected it would double in value within three years.
Of course, because you didn’t know what you didn’t know, the project became a house of cards—fragile, insubstantial, non-load-bearing, and easy to topple.
So, what went wrong? And whose fault was it?
