Not so impressed with the eviction set - if you're moving it back to the George Lucas stage you might as well do something more interesting. Personally unless you move the crowd from the house I'd actually keep the eye stage, but ditch the eye and redesigin it - a simple (sound proof) glass fronted studio lined up with that screen would work fine, and of course Emma would do all her announcements from there as well as the interviews.
Thanks, I was aiming to change it completely without covering it with lights. One thing I miss is seeing the house itself. Not going to lie the eviction stage was rushed completely, i'm going to re-attempt it later and start fresh. I would rather keep it indoors, with a small crowd. I think the big crowd influences the evictees answers at times which means we dont get actual answers in fear of being boo-ed.


[QUOTE=Brekkie;7114676]Inside and really like the idea of having some height to the place - makes it feel much more like a place viewers would want to be and as you're not using upstairs rooms you can go as high as the roof allows.

Although Jarrod is right that the roof means you can't have a full second floor I think they'd be enough room to have some of the smaller rooms on a balcony on the entrance side if you wanted too - and these early pics show there is still a bit of room to play with. Worth remembering that back in BB5 when they made everything smaller as well as lowering the ceiling they raised the floor - so that could probably be lowered too. [QUOTE]
I havent done a full second floor, when you look at the height of it properly its actually about equal to BB3's Height. Theres only about an extra half wall.

[QUOTE=Brekkie;7114676] Not so sure on the layout - main kitchen/diningroom is fine but both the lounge and sofa area doesn't look sufficient for the job and there also looks like they'd be quite a bit of wasted space. I'd move the diary room so it's on the other side of the stairs to the lounge, with the task room then off that. [QUOTE]
I dont think it wastes space, but I get what your saying. The Vestibule (labeled lounge on the plan) is not really intended to be a full room. It would basically substitute having a pod/treehouse. Basically like the lips in BB8. I think putting the diary room where that is would be like taking a step backwards as it was located there from BB9-BB13. I also think with the sofas being outdoors and the patio being in line with both it almost provides a walkway like the one from BB5 that went from the bedroom to the entrance.
