Final Design (Almost)

This series of drawings show an advanced stage design of our house.  There is some tinkering needed.  However essentially the basic architecture is there.

You will note the implementation of previously design features such as the back garage with space for reverse and going out the main gate in forward mode.  However the concept of the roof on all sides were not incorporated.

A new feature is the addition of wooden louvered screens in front of windows to shield the windows and also hide the ugly air cons.  I will post my design of these shields later.

My wife commented that the design a bit too contemporary and so some attention is needed to tinker with the over all look.

Ground floor layout has a study (cum geriatric room) as originally planned.  Note the kitchen overlooking the deck and front of house





1st floor layout. Note the guestroom next to the master does not have an ensuite bathroom. It was not possible as we did not want any draining pipes (and leaks) into the kitchen below.  No lah - no feng shui, just practical issues.  There is a generous family room for days when I travel and then the family can retreat upstairs.  All bedrooms can accommodate 2 beds.
