Ibk2020: Ok. That’s fine. Ask for survey or get the actual dimensions and the estate’s deed restrictions (that is there rules and regulations on what to build and how to build). It’s very important. But if it’s an estate formed by group of people, just give the dimension of the land. |

mrsteel: My bad...... Anyways I don't know what kind of sand they use for plastering in that area or elsewhere and if it's the same cement we are using too. I would really like to see a pix of them builds where this mix is used before extra aesthetic is done on the wall. Where I come from without telling the workman(mason) he knows it's 1 cement bag =8 paint bucket for plastering. 1 Like |

Lastly on security, I don’t need any professional with certificate to teach me how to put security in my house. No one can cut off power supply to my building. The person would have to destroy the whole house to cut off supplies. You’ll never see a single wire in the house. Peace! |

Dennis3D: This section of NL will never loose it's sense that's it's known for. There'll be no need to fight it and them. It is the zealous nature of NLanders to criticize but ask this same people to show us their own designs and you'll be surprised. I expected the one who brought his work from his architect to have first addressed his concerns with the one he engaged and let him do a review before bringing it here for open criticism. 1 Like |

n3xt: Yesterday, I talked about this. You don’t just need another beautiful building plan. The principles of space planning involve satisfying a defined criteria on a priority basis. In my case, the exterior part of my building is focused on providing adequate security. That being said, I designed it based on my relationship with my environment 1. Insider vs outsider (Porch, Terraces, Ancilliary Buildings etc) 2. Invitation vs rejection (Plot location, Party walls etc) 3. Openness vs enclosure (Setbacks...) |

Ibk2020:Noted, but you still have to share the picture of the survey plan. The shape of a land is highly required in designing. |

Ibk2020: If the land is 20.50 x 21.46m, then the plan you sent initially won’t leave ample space for parking and landscaping. And the attached won’t fit either except it is edited to suit your requirement. It’s 12.4 x 21.3m

Ibk2020: THANKS Abolarin91 for tagging me.... IBK - I'm a conservationist Architect (whatever that means ) but I mean is I DON'T BELIEVE IN WASTING SPACE OR MONEY (this is different from compromising quality thou) My Verdict: THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH THE DESIGN OR IT'S FUNCTIONALITY - my only concern is 1. You'll need to use a lot of land space 2. Would be more costly for many obvious reason IF THE ABOVE ISN'T A CONCERN - Then he shd remove the private lounge (you didn't ask for) and BINGO. Congrats and Goodluck |

Ibk2020: WHY WOULD YOU THROW AWAY SOMEONE'S STRESS BECAUSE OF COMMENTS FROM ANOTHER? I'M SURE YOU AGREE THE INITAIL ARCHITECT HAS INVESTED TIME AND MONEY TO GET YOU THAT.... IF YOU WANT ANOTHER DESIGN, TAKE ALL THE CONSTRUCTIVE COMMENTS TO HIM AND HE WOULD DO A GREAT JOB.. I'LL SAY THIS - THE GUY WHO CAME UP WITH THAT DESIGN KNOWS HIS ONIONS.......... but it's your decision anyway not mine... I can only advice 3 Likes |

bixton:That's a 1:4 mix & depends on owner. Some people make only 10 blocks out of a bag of cement. But a 1:6 mix ratio is very ok for plastering. |

EgunMogaji2: Duplex won't protect you against this kind of burglaries. It happened to my parents on a new year eve. 2 of my sisters had their phones under the pillow while they slept, the phones were gone too. They even took the entire basket of fresh fried chicken meant for Newyear celebration. Pieces of chicken was found in a straight in a path to a nearby bush. Every one slept without any idea until they woke up to discover things missing. Someone later told us how they do it but I will rather not say for fear of providing info to upcoming burglars here. |

n3xt: Dear,,,, I must commend you - In Architect, EVEN IF and i repeat EVEN IF the president of NIA designs a flat (as small as that is) - a year 2 student of Architect would fault it and be justified..... THERE IS NO 1 SOLUTION; just a client brief and a design that best suits that.... However, your comments are constructive because you have attempted to solve any client concern that arises....
