Reader Roundtable: Would You Hire a Friend (or Work for One)?

$

Last week we featured a renovated cottage by the sea where the client hired two friends as her architect and her designer. Crazy and foolhardy? Or wise and forward-thinking? After all, a common and shared understanding based on a prior relationship can promote collaboration and ease the communication and exchange of ideas. Let us know your thoughts—all stories (success and horror), are welcome.

P.S. See the miracle project at Before and After: A Summer Cottage Reborn on the Connecticut Coast.
