HouseDesign

This is the page for Nemo to design his "realistic" DreamHouse. Whereas the DreamHouse is the fantasy "money is no object" idea ground, this page is for more real-world feasible plans, drawing inspiration from the DreamHouse as nescessary of course...

For now, just some notes...

• Library - facing south to avoid direct sunlight onto books
• Round windows. Also, stained glass windows?
• Roof angled (ie, rotated, or indeed a different shape) relative to the main structure. Why? For environmental controls through shadow casting at different times of the year. This would need modelling.
• Basement area to maximise space whilst minimising above-ground volume
• Central fireplace with 'heatsink' like fins to radiate warmth through house. (could this act as a cooler in summer too, if the heatsink was connected to earth?
• Master Bedroom facing west to catch the after-midnight full moon
