Browse Forums Building A New House Re: My custom build 6May 04, 2011 8:16 am david242gt whoop1968 That is an interesting floor plan you have there. But to fully understand it I would like a little more information on the site size, boundary locations, aspects and family size/type. Initially I do not understand the planning. Im also interested to see the other materials you are planning to use as I can see you have noted flexicoat for the floor I will ask the questions for you to consider and answer. This based on the fact I know nothing of the points noted above. 1. Why don’t the garages connect into the interior of the house, at least one side? 2. For a small plan why have you divided the space with the wall between the kitchen and the lounge? 3. Why is there circulation space down both sides of the lounge space? 4. Why doesn’t the sitting room open off the entry? This will allow you to increase the width of the lounge and connect it to the outdoor space. Add the 5.7sqm of wasted corridor to the living space. 5. IF the site boundaries are very close to the building line, why have you divided the outdoor spaces into smaller disconnected spaces? 6. If you are trying to create natural cross ventilation it will work, but you could move the body of the house across to increase the open space to one side. 7. I am not commenting on the bathroom as I see it has been reviewed already in the main custom design thread.. I look forward to your response. Thanks for looking at my post. Site size is 16 meter frontage and 39 meters depth. 2 Adults no children. Backyard will be fruit trees and vegie gardens. 1. I am thinking of direct access from one of the garages. 2. That is what I like to seperate the kitchen area from the lounge. 3. The plan is to have setting areas looking out to the 2 outdoor areas. 4. The setting room will most likely become a movie room. 5. One out space will be undercover with a gas log fire the other has not cover which will be a court yard with water features. 6. I am trying to create cross ventilation and bring the outdoors in. Re: My custom build 7May 04, 2011 3:18 pm interesting floor plan, nice to see something a bit different to the 'norm' Re: My custom build 8May 04, 2011 4:33 pm I'd get the gutters to match your roof and pipes to match the paint - otherwise they become a feature. Nice pick with the paint colours! 1 35023 6 57250 Congrats. Will be watching this progress and interested to see how you go with summit. 12 36049 |
