“I want a doorway without a door,” Greg said.
“Excuse me?” asked Jim.
“That’s right, no handle, no hinges, no hydraulic anything, just the frame and some empty space,” Greg explained.
“Ok, so let me get this straight,” said Jim. “There will be a driveway that nobody can drive on.”
“Easy enough, right?” said Greg.
“And a bathroom without a bath,” said Jim.
“That’s totally normal, that’s almost every public bathroom” said Greg.
“A kitchen without a… kit? You never explained what you meant by that,” said Jim.
“We’ll figure it out,” said Greg.
“Greg, are you going to actually live in this place or is it just an art piece?” asked Jim.
“Both, I’ll live in it for a year to make a statement,” said Greg.
“And what is this, a whiteboard inked black?” asked Jim. “Next to a blackboard covered in white chalk? Hope nobody brings an eraser.”
