Throughout our lives, we gain a lot of valuable experience and we are still learning. Once upon a time, the idea of luxury living was an older house that we have gradually transformed into our image.

The lifetime of a wooden building is comparable to a brick building. The lifetime of a building is influenced, in particular, by how we care about the house.
