House Design

This sketch by David Rousseau gives a good idea of the house we are planning to build. As you can see from the floor plan, it has a "V" formation. The main aspect is southerly with kitchen facing south east and the living room south west. In between the two "wings" will be a deck with french doors from the central core of the house. The living room will be at grade (ground level) and the rest of the house will be built over a crawl space. The ground floor will be approx. 1100sq ft. Upstairs there will be a multi-purpose room of approx. 500 sq. ft. This space will have its own little deck facing south.

At the back of the house, there will be a master bedroom, bathroom, a small office and the laundry/mud room off the side entrance. This entrance will in fact be the main entrance as it is under the carport. (We're considering having a living grass roof to the carport).

There are many details still to be worked out but this looks like the overall design concept we will bee working with.

  1. Nice design, but i think you need put some decoration like garden.

    Just like to share with you a quote...
