Design your dream house!

[Pekka]

The idea of this thread is to describe what kind of house you want, the house of your dreams. Let's keep it some what realistic, so no 'I have an airport next to my garage' things. But you can still pretty much have bigger and expensive things. It doesn't matter if you can't afford it now, obviously you'd otherwise live in it already.

Or, if you have your dream house, you can post pics of it!
Or if your house can become that house of your dreams after small modifications, let's here them!
Or if you know your dream house, but you haven't bought it, or can't buy it, post a pic!

I'll post my dream house later today.

Much the same as the Teletubbies live in actually. At least on one side/demihemisphere, then the other one is just a wall of soil. Like Bag End. Then a lift/slide in the middle so I can get my PC outside and sit with it in the evening sun,.

THE PERFECT EXISTANCE.

An energy-efficient, enviromentally-designed, self-house near an empty road, in a place where desert or jungle meets the sea. If situated on an island, it better be a jungle. Otherwise, I'd prefer the desert, with it's breathtaking views. a small shallow lagoon where my Yacht will be anchored.

The house will be a 3-story building, with a large greenhouse near it.

Half of the ground floor will be an entrance hall, with stairs and an elevator leading to the upper hall. Also, there will be a large guestroom. It would be neatly decorated.

There will be a study and a 3 bedrooms on the second floor. The study would have an elevator of it's own to the basement, which we be the place of my Laboratory, and my various toys. In two separate rooms, of course.

Only a quarter of the 3rd floor would be under a roof. That quarter will house the kitchen. The rest would be the place for a dinning table, and a pool.

Also, there would be a garage, with two cars, one of them a sports car, and the other a 4x4. Both would be Fuel-Cell fueled.

some 50 meters away, there would be a Helipad, and a hangar near it, with a VTOL aircraft parked in it.

I could also say that all of this would be meaningless without the beautiful woman I'd love greatly, who'd be the mother of my 3-4 great kids. But there is no point in describing them.

That's it for me. A new-age green megalomaniac american dream hybrid.

what a JIP!! you didn't include a link to a home-design site or anything...

[Az]

indeed, I waited for such a thing myself.

Oh, well, I guess that's what "The Sims" are for.

Btw, I also have the "amazing single guy big city appartment" theme going on in my head.


But I think it's early for me to come out with my sexuality.

Oh yeah, thread title is a bit misleading. But hey this is better, since you can now truly design what you want and describe it, those online things are so limited anyway.

Trying to turn an disadvantage into advantage. Poor marketing skills, though.

The house is far less important than the person you share it with.

[Az]

I already said that, EiF. Still, that doesn't mean that the house is not important.

I want to live in a tower. I love height. I hate one story houses. Attics are the way to go!

[MrFun]

I would like to have a country home (not on a farm) that is located something like 20 miles outside the nearest city.

It would be two stories with an attached double garage. On my estate, I would like to have a wooded trail area with a stream or creek running through it.

The house itself would appear to be somewhat rugged in appearance (logs and/or large stones). But inside, it would have all the modern conveniences. And of course, I gotta have this fabulous deck that wraps around the outside -- two sides of the house, creating an L-shape deck.

I already said that, EiF.

Apologies, ::head in the clouds::
