		The 1900 House, as the title dictates, transports the Bowler family back to the era of their great-grandparents and then captures the results in next week's broadcasts.

		To launch a series based on a interesting idea, Channel 4 showed a special report on how the house featured in the 1900 House was created and how the family was chosen.
		The idea was to take a Victorian house built around 1900, remove all elements of the 20th century, and film a family coping for three months without access to modern conveniences.
		A house in a quiet London suburb was a real find for the producers, because under plasterboard and wallpaper lay all the features they needed to make the series a reality.

	energy-efficient pyramid house plans
		A pyramid structure is one of the most efficient, stable engineering designs for commercial or residential building construction.
		Because there is no separate roof, as the walls serve as the roof, a pyramid house design uses approximately 20% less material in construction compared to a conventional home with the same area in square feet.
		Due to the differences in building codes nationally and internationally these plans may have to be modified by a local Architect, Engineer or Building Designer to meet the building code design requirements in the area where the house will be built.

	2003 House Bill 1900 - Washington Votes
		Substitute offered to the House Local Government Committee on March 5, 2003, to remove language authorizing a local government to use proceeds generated by the real estate excise tax for any local government capital project.
		The original language of the act is restored which provides that revenues generated by the real estate excise tax may only be used for capital projects specified in a capital facilities plan element of a comprehensive plan.
		Referred to the House Rules Committee on March 5, 2003, but the bill did not pass the House by the cutoff date so it is considered a “dead bill” (although technically the bill could become active at any time during the 2003-2004 session).

	Opera House: Will final curtain fall in Litchfield?
		Opera houses symbolized cultural, social and political institutions, and often were more elaborate than the school gymnasiums and church basements that replaced them, Roth said.
		The Litchfield Opera House "represents what people did in an earlier period, when entertainment was less sophisticated and live, and people weren't home watching movies on TV," she said.
		Those shows didn't happen, she said, but the building was where farm families organized one of the first rural electric cooperatives under the New Deal, military recruiting and training took place and pretty much "everything significant in the history of the city" happened.

	Current.org \| Frontier House preview
		Frontier House was already on the drawing board when The 1900 House aired last June, its inspiration the Laura Ingalls Wilder Little House books that Beth Hoppe, executive producer for WNET, was reading to her children.
		The Frontier House has several obvious similarities to The 1900 House — contemporary people thrust into a historical setting, Anglo-American co-production of WNET and the UK's Wall to Wall Television and Channel 4, and even the same producers, WNET's Hoppe and series producer Simon Shaw of Wall to Wall.
		But the Montana homesteaders had to build their own houses, grow or kill much of their food, fend off bears and rattlesnakes and mosquitoes (one pioneer counted 91 bites on her body), and survive an unexpected (in June!) nine-inch snowstorm.

		At the time the instructions to the architects were to limit the construction to no more than $25,000 of the anticipated $100,000 total cost.

		And those little trees you can see dotted around the gate and around the drive-way are now enormous mature horse chestnut trees with branches that hang low as you come into the garden and shelter that whole side of the garden in dabbled sunlight through the spring.
		I love the idea that the house has gradually settled into its location over the years, that it has made its environment its home just as we made it ours.
		I wonder whether the current vogue for disposable, short-term buildings means that we're cheating ourselves of that settled-in, mature feel - as if all our buildings were like unripened flavourless cheeses that we never respected enough to come into their own.
