Geoking66's BB9 house

[geoking66]

I'm working on a new house with the theme of "caste system" and "slavery." This is going to be interesting.

[Matt]

If it's anything like your old house then it's gonna be mind-blowing :bouncy:

[geoking66]

Here's the outdoor area, I only have the façade up at the moment, but it's still something.

Good so far, i like the way the entrance door is positioned.

[geoking66]

This is a lounge. At the bottom of the image the counter of the pink-themed kitchen can be seen. When more of the house is done, there's a pretty striking architectural statement above the kitchen. The lounge is purposely too bright and has a myriad of odd designs.

Oh my god Geoking! I love that! Well done!

[Harry!]

well done!:spin:

[Captain.Remy]

Great house, could we have a housemap ? :laugh:

[geoking66]

I make my Big Brother houses as I do them; no floorplan used. Here is a more composite view from the lounge of the kitchen and bedrom. Note the multi-levelled texture and the curved cieling. Another interesting feature is the kitchen arrangement, with the cabinets on the floor as well as the fridge on the floor (seen on the right).

Love the way you even include plug sockets.

Weldone!:spin:

[geoking66]

People always comment on the sockets.

[bbcanada]

aha, love the idea of the cabinets and fridge on the floor, would be so anoying! :spin2:

[Benji]

its intriguing

[geoking66]

A look from the garden portico. Note: the doors are purposely next to the fridge.

[Matt]

Looking good, I love the portico!

[Captain.Remy]

I love the fridge on the floor, your house is really creative, but I think you should make a kitchen-island in the middle.

[geoking66]

The dining table for the untouchables (this is the poor/untouchable/lower house going along with the caste theme) is actually a picnic table placed above the pool, so in either situation it's an annoyance.

[Captain.Remy]

I wouldn't call it annoying...but extremely annoying LOL
Well done great idea !

[geoking66]

This is the entrance of the upper/rich house. Note the columns, however, they do not impede because there are cameras hidden in them.

Wow! Your house is looking brilliant!

[Callum]

[Conor]

Could you update the first image, with all 4 walls? :colour:

[geoking66]

Thanks! More opulent picutres are coming soon.

[geoking66]

A view from the lounge. The Diary Room door can be seen on the right. The lounge features an ornate couch in a more lavish style with the TV attached to the left column.

[Kate..]

GREAT WORK

well done :banana:

[geoking66]

Here's the rich bedroom, built with a coffer arch design. I don't know why the fire exit sign is kind of screwed up; it isn't in the model.

[Captain.Remy]

Awesome I love the idea of a tunnel. :thumbs:

[geoking66]

Sorry about not updating much; I've been pretty busy. More work will occur this weekend.

[Captain.Remy]

Don't worry we can wait until the weekend ! :thumbs:

[Loukas]

WELL DONE :bouncy:

[Fat.Rat]

[geoking66]

Thanks for the positive feedback on the bedroom. There might be an upgrade in the future if my idea works…

[Matt]

Everything's looking great as per usual :thumbs:

[Conor]

Your houses are always so origional! Weldone! :hello:

[geoking66]

A long awaited update, yes the bedroom has changed. You are now looking into the bathroom. And wait, how do we get to the garden in the rich house?

[Captain.Remy]

Very colorful, it's very dark. Well done !

[dupin]

Although I have no doubt that you are really skilled at Sketchup, I don't really like some of the colour schemes you choose in your house. Sometimes certain things make it seem quite un-Big Brothery (mainly in this house, not really in your other one)

What kinds of things. I'm interested to hear.

[gracie24]

it's incredible
love it

[geoking66]

Here is the bathroom. Note the arched cieling and that the shower-heads are located in between the two segments of banked track lighting.

I think the colouring is too dark, actually, which doesn't give it that vibrant feel of a Big Brother house...

[Conzors]

Very Good

I think that the bathroom will change your mind, but I understand. I'm trying for a more subdued feel this time.

[geoking66]

A completely different look at the two houses, note that although my houses are built to scale, the rich house is vastly larger than the main one. Note, I haven't completed the rich kitchen and garden yet.

[Captain.Remy]

THis is house is deffo awesome, just the colours are a little bit too dark !

[geoking66]

Officially, the reason that the colours are dark is that the house is based on caste and slavery, thus it has a "dark" feel.
