During that seven years in pharma, I ALSO “worked” as an owner-builder.
It took 6 years of serious labour – holidays, weekends, evenings – while my husband and I successfully built the home of our dreams on our bush block.
This personal project ALSO gave me massive insight into just how much goes into every built structure – time, energy, money, resources, passion, expertise.
Ever since, I’ve looked at homes, cities, factories and warehouses with different eyes.
