We asked students and faculty about their dream house, and we found amazing results! First, we asked members of our PVS community to describe their dream house and where it would be. Then, we asked their opinion on whether they liked . . .
- a “simple” house with not much clutter or color;
- a “modern” house–again without much color and very box-like;
- a “cottage core” house–looking like it belongs in the forest with lots of greens and plants;
- a “lots-of-colors” house;
- or an “aesthetic” neutral-looking house that reflects individual ideas of beauty.
As you can see, cottage core was the popular choice.
Simple | |
Modern | |
Cottage Core | |
Lots of colors | |
Aesthetic |

Without further ado, let’s see exactly how the PVS students and faculty answer the question: What Does Your Dream House Look Like?
Ms. Zachik, Ms. Maguire, and Mr. Satterfield start off strong with amazing answers!
Ms. Zachik: “I want to live in the desert, on a gentle hill with lots of plants.”
Ms. Maguire: “Not very big, with lots of arts & craft stuff.”
Mr. Satterfield: “Around the mountains with no cell service.”

From a retro house in Long beach, to an old-money house in Greece, I think we have many different opinions. We interviewed a lot of friend groups and people together, and as you can tell, a lot of people have the same interests. We like a roof over our heads, a pleasant view, and a place for shelter with loved ones.
