When the going gets tough for BRAD PITT, the movie star plans building projects.

The actor admits whenever the paparazzi or gossip gets him down, he turns to his first love - architecture.
He reveals it has always been that way: "Architecture is like play to me. As a boy, you play with Tinker Toys, Lincoln Logs, Legos, and you get interested in how things are made, like cars and drills and all that.
"Years later you come back around to what interested you as a boy. Now, if I have something that I'm dealing with that's causing me a lot of stress, my mind goes to architecture. I walk around the yard and start thinking about what I need to do to the house structurally.
"It's similar to puzzles in that way, like a crossword puzzle or anything else I can put my mind into. It's a relief for me."
Pitt has spent the past few years building his dream home in Hollywood and tells Parade magazine it's the only place where he and partner Angelina Jolie, and their six kids can live in comfort.
He explains, "After a few years of work, it came out so nice. Now I've got so many damn kids, it's the only place we could all fit in. We're double-bunking rooms as it is."
