Love Steve’s work, would love more content like this! I’m an aspiring architect and can’t learn enough things from contractors at this point in my career.
I wish we could see more innovation in architecture. I can’t see how you could be excited about building a house in this day and age that looks like something from 200 years ago.
Love the look of this house and visits from architects. Can you bring the riverside passive build architect to the site and talk about all that? (Specifically the windows that are right in the corners) or did I miss a video where they talked about that?
I'm not the builder but I would guess that the bump-out will probably be about 1/4". Visually I think this detail is best compared to a traditional (not modern) carpentry "reveal"...a material surface break that signals a change and it is pretty common around here. All brick masonry (including veneers) function, in part, as a "sponge". The brick will get wet either way and mortar joints are always vulnerable...which is why there will, in all likelihood, a waterproof membrane at the sheathing plane. If the cavity has some ventilation the brick will be able to dry out...in time (sun exposure dependent). In New England, where I live, you WILL definitely have some very rainy days and plenty of snow accumulation around the base of the house...sometimes both at the same time. Snow can really pile up with roof slides. On north sides wet veneers on well insulated homes generally stay wet for a long time.
BTW..."Blueboard" technically IS gypsum board. It is a sub-category used as a base for veneer plaster. It just isn't "gypsum wallboard". I know, I know...when we say "gyp-board" we usually mean gypsum wallboard...that gets tape and mud.
He’s an architectural designer and is titled as that in the video. Think Nick may have referred to him as an architect at one point or another, I’m sure out of habit.
@@stevecrawford6958 I am making the comment because the illegal use of the word is a board of education consequence that has legal ramifications. I am commenting as a warning to anyone saying they are architect and are not. I've seen people sued over that by states and it isn't pretty mainly because using architect asserts a level of professional experience and license in which clients assume and if there is a law suit related to designed work, it doesn't end well

Nickelback siding, everyone is going to hate it, but secretly kinda still like it 😂
We all just want to be big rock stars

There are innovations in modern era but they're not adopted by masses.
The insights provided by this channel are second to none. Thank you, Nick and team!

Beautiful home
We did a study on sunlight!!!! LOL
Does bumping out the brick add a vulnerable ledge for water to get in? Since the brick is porous, is it waterproofed behind or sealed after?

You cant go wrong with brick colonial House Styles
Love the build, whats with the blue "stained" wood, is it moisture or how it works in mass? genuinly curious, looks odd on video
What brand of brick are you using?
place looks great
I see that Steve is called architect. I do not see that he is licensed for being an architect. Is he a licensed architect or just a draftsman?

@@GarrickVance the word architect is a legal term meant for licensed which is why I asked. thanks
@@michaelhand9769 it's interesting how many designers get called Architects and don't protest much.

I suggest contacting a lawyer for protection should that happen - it only takes one person
