A radically different house…, aka Geoking66's futuristic BB9 house

[geoking66]

I admit it, I'm a compulsive house designer. But this time I want to do something different. Different isn't an apt term; radical best suits what I want to create. I need an opinion, so I'd like everyone here's views.

[Matt]

You are a compulsive house designer :laugh:

Out the list above futuristic sounds best. I could be wrong though.

I look forward to seeing your forthcoming house!

[geoking66]

I'm probably going to start this weekend.

[Captain.Remy]

The futuristic theme seems awesome, I'm looking forward to see it ! :hello:

[Conor]

Can't wait, but could you use more tastful, light colours this time? Please don't take it as an offence, but it would be nice to see you design a nice glassy, sleek house.

Although, it does set youre house apart from the rest (in a good way)

Apart from that can't wait, please post soon!! :thumbs:

[geoking66]

I'm taking all of this into consideration. Yes, I'm going to use lighter hues or red and green with a splash of pink and light blue.

[geoking66]

In keeping with the futuristic theme, here is the entrance. More viewpoints will become available. In order to keep suspense, I'll have longer breaks between image releases in order to encourage discussion and add some tension.

The entrance is made of clear plastic. Davina's podium is an abstract mis-mash of clear and curvy cubes. A very straight path through the crowd awaits the housemates and some small TV monitors give a more "technologic" theme.

[Matt]

:shocked:

Geoking that looks great!

[bbcanada]

WOW!!!!!!! Seriously, im thinking this will be the best fan made house yet! I am really excited to seeing more of this! :cheer2:

[geoking66]

The entrance corridor is almost purely white, with a fingerprint required to enter the Big Brother house (this is a futuristic styled idea).

[Captain.Remy]

Wow love all your ideas, this is awesome ! :thumbs:

[Conor]

I love it! It's so diffirent. Weldone. :bouncy:

[Loukas]

THATS GREAT MATE well done

[Sam!]

Wow I love it! :cheer2:

[Ruth*Star]

It's AWESOME so far..keep the good work up.

[geoking66]

Thanks for the positive feedback!

[geoking66]

Here's the front door. I'm sorry about the quality of the door, for some reason Flickr did that, in my model it's regular black lines.

[Captain.Remy]

Haha I love it, this is so "white". :wink:

[geoking66]

Being futuristic, it's supposed to be white, the walls on either side are of a magnesium colour (well that's its name in OS X).

[Ruth*Star]

It's so cool, so minimalistic.

[geoking66]

The kitchen and dining table.

[dupin]

I really like it - the only problem is that the sink isn't connected to any water supply...

[Captain.Remy]

I love it, a turquoise or green wall would have been perfect, it's too white I think.
But it's just awesome ! :thumbs:

[Loukas]

THATS GREAT :hello:

well done

I'm too lazy to do that, but it should be, I realised that afterwards.

[Ruth*Star]

It looks so cool, i like the table, well done.

[geoking66]

Thanks! More pictures coming soon.

[Conor]

It this outstanding! I can't beleive my eyes... weldone!!! :dance::dance:

[geoking66]

This year's lounge chair is slightly out of the ordinary. It is comprised of transparent cubes that interconnect to keep in line with the minimalist, abstract, and futuristic themes employed in this house.

[Matt]

Haha! It's like living in a game of Tetris! Well done!

[Captain.Remy]

Orginial and creative, full of coulors, well done !:thumbs:

[Conor]

Looking Great!!! :thumbs:

How were you able to get purple and floresent green glass?

Lower the opacy/transparency level to about 50-75 per cent in the colour palette (I'm in OS X, I don't know how it works on XP or Vista).

[geoking66]

Here's a different angle, looking towards the garden. The tint of the doors is darker so as to allow less UV light into the house, in keeping with the futuristic theme. If you look closely, you can see something odd developing in the garden.

[Captain.Remy]

I love it, really futuristic ! :spin2:

[Loukas]

LOVE IT !!! Well Done :cheer2:

[Matt]

That looks great Geoking!

[geoking66]

Thanks everyone!

[Matt]

I can't wait to see more!

[geoking66]

More coming around 6.30pm UST-4, Eastern Daylight Saving Time (11.30 UST+1, British Summer Time)

[geoking66]

Here's the bedroom, with a pretty odd design idea.

[Ruth*Star]

That is awesome, the bed room looks very good, i'm really liking this house.

[Captain.Remy]

That's a great idea, all the glasses, the bridge and the balcony. :thumbs:

[Chri$]

OMG Its GREAT I LOVE It! :bigsmile::bigsmile::bigsmile::bigsmile:

[geoking66]

Here's the floorplan so far…

[geoking66]

This is the interview stage…

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2045/1499947661_847b9c0506_b.jpg

[Sam!]

Wow the interview stages reminds be of a bottle cap!

[Captain.Remy]

I love the housemap, awesome !

[Conor]

Plenty of space for anothe house, isn't there? Can I just ask what the yellow stair things are in the bedroom? :spin2:

[geoking66]

Conor, I usually make camera run that actually works (and for this house I'll post some images of it); since the bedroom is at a higher elevation, those stairs are from the fire exit and down to the camera run. They're painted yellow so as to be seen in an otherwise pitch-black area becuse the mirrors don't give enough light.

From this view of the bedroom, you can not only see the front door but also the top of the house and a bit of the interview stage.

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2070/1507818360_c899fb3526_b.jpg

[Captain.Remy]

Maybe the colors of the bedroom should be changed...it"s not so futuristic. I can see it with blue circles and some orange too. :thumbs:
Overall I like it.

[geoking66]

The interior part of the house is meant to be futuristic, the garden is supposed to have a green/environmental theme (which is also futuristic).

[Captain.Remy]

Ok sorry then ! :joker:

[geoking66]

It's OK, just clarifying.

[geoking66]

More pics coming soon!

[geoking66]

Where are we?

Love it :lovedup:

[Captain.Remy]

A secret garden maybe ? :tongue:

[Matt]

That looks great GK :thumbs:

[Conor]

The wall gets moved and this part of the garden is unlocked? Great work btw! :bouncy:

[geoking66]

Thanks for the positive feedback!

[geoking66]

Here's an aerial shot:

[Captain.Remy]

That's what I said, secret garden !!!! :tongue:

[Loukas]

wow its GREAT EVERYTHING IS GREAT well done

im going to have a go today :spin: see what i can do

[geoking66]

We're not quite done yet.

[geoking66]

I call this the blood room, and note, the dark colour scheme is unique to this room.

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2331/1561957247_56ac4a21f2_b.jpg

[Captain.Remy]

Maybe you should have add an other colour in this room but I love the seats. :hugesmile:

[geoking66]

It's supposed to be blood red, but the next room that you'll see is quite colourful indeed.

[Conor]

What is the blood room used for? :conf:

[geoking66]

That's for you to figure out.

[Loukas]

LOVING IT

tibbs full of seacrts

[geoking66]

Thanks for the positive feedback!

[geoking66]

Mysterious stairs, where do you think that they lead?

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2302/1571934253_7be5e59f3a_b.jpg

[Captain.Remy]

Can't wait to see more of these stairs ! :bigsmile:

[Ruth*Star]

I can't wait either, keep up the good work.

[Loukas]

ohhhhh them stairs are GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :cheer2:

[Matt]

Oooh... exciting!

[geoking66]

This is the kitchen. Instead of having a table, the housemates will have to eat on the rug laid out for them. What do you think that A and B represent on the wall? Just another question that you'll have to figure out, and soon you'll find out where those stairs lead.

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2051/1593517918_427f4f33a1_b.jpg

[Captain.Remy]

That's a funny idea !!!

[Matt]

I'm not too sure about the colours, but otherwise it's great ;)

[geoking66]

It's intentional to have an odd colour scheme, and noöne ever uses orange/brown.

[Spike]

I like it, good work :thumbs:

[KKBL]

great work!!:thumbs:

[Ruth*Star]

Great work, i like the eating on the rug idea, its different.

[Loukas]

its great

my minds on them stairs

[geoking66]

Damn, there's a loked door at the bottom of the stairs? How do we open it? Think about everything you've seen so far, but noöne will figure out how it will work.

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2087/1623367028_a0711ca1cf_b.jpg

[jamesh]

oooo is it going to be like the basement/cellar idea that was rumoured during bb8? i wish some of the producers looked at all these designs people make and take some ideas from them, cos they are so damn great!

[Simple_Plan]

OMG These Ideas Are Feaking Amazing :thumbs: Great Work :bigsmile:

[Conor]

Do you have to use the little thing in the entrance to unlock it, at the bottom of the normal stair case to the main living area?

[geoking66]

Here's a hint: A and B have something to do with the locked room.

[Noel]

Are A and B like buttons? And you press one and the door opens, but if you press the other it locks?

[Simple_Plan]

Good Idea Noel :thumbs:

When Are More Picz Coming Though ?

[dbh-g]

My lounge idea is basically the same as yours.

And i luv the idea of the fingerprints on the door.

One twist could be that someone's doesnt work and they find out that they havent got into the bb house so they have to leave or they could go to a secret room as the housemates wudnt expect that on the first day.

That was one of my twists, but it seemed to obvious.

[Captain.Remy]

So when will we know the twist ? :hugesmile:

[geoking66]

Where does this room come into play?

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2275/1674245448_2faafe4000_b.jpg

[Ruth*Star]

Ooo! Is that the room which leads from the grassy stairs?

[geoking66]

The twist is as follows:

On Day 1, twelve housemates will enter the main house.

On Day 29, five new housemates will go into the secret house. Now here's where the twist takes place. On Day 31, whenever someone enters the kitchen, either A or B will light up green. If a housemates opens either the A or B hatch, there is a key inside. That housemate must figure out that the key opens the lock on the door on the bottom of the stairs. However, the room that they will enter is not a good thing. The person who enters this room is Big Brother's Experiment.

The Experiment will enter the laboratory (the most recent picture) and at Big Brother's discretion must act as a specimen for anything that Big Brother would like to do to them. More unlucky twists for the housemates in the secret house are in store (a hint, none are evicted until at least Day 43).

[Matt]

Ooh... I like that twist!

[Ruth*Star]

Ooohh! The twist seems interesting.

[geoking66]

Thanks, everyone.

[geoking66]

Another view of the kitchen.

[Loukas]

wow

this house is fantastic i mean the pics dont stop coming

[Ruth*Star]

Does a hm get punished if they touch or go near the X or something?
Good picture aswell.

[geoking66]

The X is in the laboratory if that helps…

[Simple_Plan]

More Picz Please The Suspence Is Killing Me :bigsmile:

[geoking66]

It's solitary confinement!

[Ruth*Star]

Good picture, is that where they go when they break the rules.

[Matt]

That looks good Geoking :spin2:

[Conor]

It's a "sea of mystery." And if anyone didn't notice there's a real eye (you can see the lashes).

[Basil131]

any more !!?

[geoking66]

I'll have a surprise for Christmas…

[Captain.Remy]

Wooo I can't wait then !! I love your house !

Woo-hoo!

Long time no update :laugh:

[geoking66]

Well the "surprise" is now my main project and this house is finished.

[Matt]

Aw no, I liked where this house was going... or had you posted all you had to post? :sad::laugh:

[geoking66]

I basically had nothing else left to post. It seems like it's an on-off affair with my houses. Everyone love the first one (casual luxury) and this one (the third) whilst disliking the caste one (second) and my current one (the fourth).
