Pen and ink is an excellent medium for drawing houses. It reproduces well and is good for your drawing, in the sense that it makes you decide exactly what you mean when you make a mark on the paper. There is very little use of grey but tone can be achieved through a variety of marks. The very nature of a pen's line is lively making it possible for otherwise dreary straight lines to become interesting.
