First time the main bulk of the house has been placed on this side of the structure.

Have to say I prefare when the main patio doors lead into the living area and not the bedroom

From the angles we have seen so far from the pictures, I can't seem to work out where they could fit a task room. Maybe one of the doors on the side wall of the entrance could lead to a task room?

Task rooms are boring and such a waste of space, I hope they don't have one this year and build a proper secret room instead.

Exactly this! I don't want there to be a load of anticipation around these secret doors that won't open until further into the series, to find they lead to a task room.

I want something secretive, something amazing, otherwise... you may as well show us now.

Why does there even need to be a task room?

Task rooms are just gay.

Know what was awesome? BB7's Prison Task.

Why was it awesome? The secret hideaway.

Go figure.

Tasks and twists are good and all but if they truly want back to basics they should space them out well through out the series. The house looks great so I want the series to be good. I like some of the classic elements added like the mangle and the outdoor shower and a place for the rule breakers. I only hope they keep it strict. :)

The living area is away from the stairs

I think they need a task room for the more messier tasks tbh, that way they don't need to shut off any parts of the house while they clean it up afterwards.

Woah you have a lot of time on your hands

I have an awful feeling they are gonna do a BB10 and make the housemates work for the furniture.

Oh God, don't say that. That was awful.

But, the press images didn't feature furniture that year... This year it does so I can't see them ripping it all out now?

Entrance doors and diary room
 

This area is at the top of the stairs, the fake doors split into two (the two entrance doors)

Also at the top of the stairs, to the left, is an empty area which I believe will lead to the diary room (otherwise there is no need for the extra space)

This is so exciting- like this is the most intriguing house ever seriously.

I so wanna know where all these secret doors lead to- hoping it's a secret house or something not just a task room or a gym -_-

Nice work elliebrew. Not clear from the pics but I do wonder if the lounge might be separate from the living room if those doors in the entrance are going to come into play at some date for either new HMs or an evictee to secretly move in.

The lounge is were the bedroom was in BB13
