As August rolls in, many homeowners find themselves caught between the tail end of summer and the early signs of a new season. It’s a natural time to reflect: is your home working for you, or against you? For families feeling squeezed for space, or tired of layouts that don’t suit modern life, now is the time to start planning your next move — not in spring, not someday — now.
As summer hits its peak, it’s the perfect time to step back, look at your home, and ask: what would make this space truly work for us? While others are enjoying holidays and garden parties, savvy homeowners are already planning their autumn extensions and loft conversions — ensuring their projects are booked in and ready to go before the year’s end.
The Oldest Rock-Cut Caves in India — and Still the Most Precise
Hidden in the granite hills of Bihar, India, the Barabar Caves are over 2,200 years old — yet they display a level of craftsmanship that even modern builders and stonemasons find difficult to explain. These were not shelters or simple carvings. They are mirror-polished, geometrically perfect chambers cut directly into solid granite — with no second chances, no filler, and no room for error.
