ngl it's a bit hrghghghghhhh annoying that i can't continue working on that build skfjgnk π however it's actually easy enough to do it again (what i was up to anyway) BUT i also don't think i should do it again until it's much, much less buggy
i think i might make the courtyard a bit smaller... i think i had it as 2.4m wide or so? maybe we could go... 2.1m... perhaps... althoughhhh... idk, i don't like that there's a big gap in the middle of the house with nothing in it. hm. maybe i should put the bookshelves against the outside of the stairs... actually you know what i looooove. the built-in shelves under the stairs. one could probably squeeze in a tiny little powder room toilet thing under the stairs too, i saw how tiny one of the sinks was. but i also feel like the game would REBEL
eta or maybe i should just move the sofa and have it face the stairs and plonk the tv there... or do i not have enough room
if i do manage to get back in, i want to do another house, i think i saw a sloping downward block, which i'm hoping has a nice view. because i want to do like, two square/rectangular blocks, slightly shifted from each other (or do i want a connecting bridge-type piece?) and the set back piece (or however you call it) is the bedroom and bathroom, and the other piece is the living/dining/kitchen. yeah it's one of those houses for one person which is usually an airbnb in a remote location lol. and this is 'split level' as in the bedroom/bathroom piece is higher, and then maybe three steps down is the living/dining/kitchen piece. sooomething like that.
eta forgot to mention, i would want these blocks to somehow appear to 'hover' (i.e. stick out far enough from the downward slope)... or at least appear to be the pod design, but on a slightly larger scale
for yearsss i've had this um idea/mental image of a downward sloping block, so sloped/sloped enough such that you can't really see the house from the road. and it would be neat to put grass on the roof so it camouflages in even more. and the house is brutalist with a bit of timber thrown in to soften it, ofc.
on that note, i did see this interesting airbnb (studio, sigh) in NZ with this same sort of concept, made out of stone iirc, with grass on the roof, and the glass walls were like a mirror such that you could see the surrounding landscape reflected in it, and so the house blended in with the surroundings, which were all grass/sea/bay/no other houses. i liked it, i just wished it was a 1 bedroom so that i could pretend it would be somewhere you could stay in for a substantial amount of time/possibly live in if you could handle the remoteness
eta i saw a hexagonal (or something like that; polygonal lol) house at CMAG at the enrico taglietti exhibition... i wanna make that too
