The final draft is laid out before us, massive sheets of parchment spread across a makeshift table, anchored down by stones to keep the wind from carrying them away. For the first time, I can truly see it—our home, our future, every detail Noelle had dreamed of now made real on paper.
Brian Mel has proven himself to be a genius. He worked quickly, capturing Noelle's scattered ideas—his vague descriptions, his tendency to explain things in emotions rather than measurements—and somehow translated them into something structured, cohesive, and breathtaking. The design feels personal, a reflection of Noelle in every detail.
