Ask anyone what idea a porch evokes and most will talk of nostalgic times when a slower speed of life was the norm. A place where giggling children drink lemonade after a game of tag, the magical first kiss of a courtship is captured, or two old men play checkers to pass the long summer afternoon.
There is something so inviting and open about a porch. It is a place for diplomacy and where differences wane. President George Bush said in his Inaugural Address in 1989, “We meet on democracy’s front porch, a good place to talk as friends. For this is a day when our nation is made whole, when our differences, for a moment, are suspended.”
Below are several photos I have taken of porches.
Not only does “Everyone deserve an Architect,” Everyone deserves a porch!
