From today's New York Times comes a pretty sweet article about homes designed with hidden rooms. I'll admit the same thing that one of the people profiled in the article does: this has always been a fantasy of mine, having a small space tucked away behind a bookcase or false wall; it has precious little to do with privacy and a tremendous amount to do with sheer dorkiness. Heck, after reading about Maggie and Jason's discovery of a hidden room in their house during a renovation, I'm pretty sure I had a dream or two that Shannon and I found one in ours. Nevermind that our lot is all of 15 feet wide, and we can account for every square inch of our home without even breaking a sweat... I can't imagine where I'd tuck a hidden room. But a man can dream!
