you could have made the veranda larger wider and make the windows larger - make the courses 2 courses from the floor - it will give the house a more light and space.
The double door will be very tight you can still expand the veranda since you have not roofed
About the verendah, you are right...I will extend just a meter to get extra print ( for a more stylish roof finish) using three rectangular pillar columns on either sides ( 1M from the current verandah wall) with a horizontal beam connecting them. We are okay with its space ( and only doing this adjustment for aesthetics)
A good elegant design with a good detail. but i see you've made living room area kind of small anyway the drone footage is awesome congratulations ..its a journey..
My footprint had to be optimized to the size of land available. So I decided to design it as an open plan set up. Thanks for the feedback....step by step....we shall be there soon.
I love it. Have learnt a thing or two. Wonderful masterpiece "Architect"!
Hi James! Thanks a lot for the feedback.
Nice job bro
Appreciated John 🙏🏽
The building idea is splendid 💯💯.... Especially the concept of putting the toilet far from the kitchen.
You are truly a visionary 😊😊
Thanks for the feedback! We tried and it's a work in progress.
Well done family !! This is a mansion in the village ! You have indeed made your mark.
Long time and welcome back 🤗! Thanks. We are trying.
nice job..cant wait for the roof design
Thanks 🙏🏽🙏🏽. We're hopeful!
Thank you for the angel's view of your house. Wow, wow, wow. 🎉 Your house is on another level seeing from the drone view. Again congratulations 🎉.
Michael 🙏🏽 😊 We were equally amazed seeing it from that view. It's indeed a well-done job!
Simply beautiful, congrats.
Thank you Marajan 😊😊. We are humbled
Thanks Wanjalaz for the aerial or bird’s eye view of your beautiful home and gardens. It’s such a giant house. Just noted today that you have so many walls. Don’t you think that most space has been taken by the multiple corridors especially in the master bedroom or it’s an apprehensive house. Raised around the border front line we were socialized to think of the alternative exit points in an emergency scenario. How have you the Wanjalaz complied to this as a security measure? Would you consider an additional exit point within your master bedroom?
The village is great and quiet....but the idea of too many doors didn't sit well ... especially with very large windows on nearly every wall on the exterior. Also, Is it perhaps too late to add an exit point to the house now? Especially our bedroom area??
The kitchen area door and front door serve us .
About corridors, that is the way we wanted our house to feel. We naturally like hallways.
If our needs change over time, we shall consider any changes to our future structures. This is just our first house/home.
Congratulations you guys on your 1k subscribers. So happy for you.
Thanks Michael 🙏🏽. It's courtesy of the support from brothers and sisters like yourself. God bless 🙏🏽
you are lucky to live in a hot region, because in Russia outer walls are about 400-600 mm thick. And heating system is also very complicated
Salman... that's serious! 600MM thick? We bet heating homes is super expensive.
Yes indeed, we are so lucky to be in a relatively warmer region.
Praying for a quick recovery.
Amen. She says thank you!!
Qr to our dear renice and congratulations guys on 1k subs🎉. Go conquering those milestones💃💪
Thank you so much Sheryl 😊. She will feel better.God bless. We couldn't have done it without you, Siz.
Congrat guys but i noticed you missed a very important componet of foundation, The DPM as manifested by greenish stuff on the partitioning walls
Hi Mark. We used lots of it. The green moss is due to heavy rains.
Quick recovery
Thanks Uncle Wily 💝 . Wishes received
Hi, very nice design. 130 m2. What are the length and the width of this house?
@e-koto Thanks Mahn! L = 13M x W=10 M.
@@TheWanjalaz my house is having 130m square but is not having a pantry. mainly because we dont stay there all the time.
@@SPIDERman9051 same size as mine.... Understandably so!
How much to build such a house?
We project 4-5 M plus finishes.
❤❤❤❤
Thanks Ibrahim
The design looks good but dont ruin it by putting keys on the wall, keying wall ni old fashion, just do a wall master and paint it all weather white paint..alafu roof weka either decra or box profile ya black..that's my opinion
Kibe! Thanks so much for your suggestions. We have been thinking so hard about the keying thing....We share similar opinions.
Box profile hio tu moja najua ndio unarecommend?
@@TheWanjalaz yes box profile does well hizi zingine zinakaa tiles tends to leak alot or better still do a hidden roof with concrete gutter on the centre its called butterfly hidden roof, its way more cheaper with less timber and les iron sheets since you can use this ordinary mabati and hide them with a parapet wall..200k is enough 190k is enough for a hidden roof labour inclusive
@@kibebenja We really like where this is going. Do you know an expert with a verifiable record of installing this design?
You can do proper key and apply water proof vanish. The house will look magistic. Plastering is also good but comes at neck breaking cost. Also remember you will keep painting now and then. ❤❤❤
Best not build a second story since there are no rebar pillars and soil surrounding not so good , be care ful or your mesiah might have an accident
Who has said we're going to add a storey? This is a bungalow and the only thing pending is roofing.
