uncleteeh: Bros the chairman is right. Even in kobocity.com, you can see the number of designs we’ve had to work on... I think our architects need to up their game. |

Focusmind: The truth is I want to build a house that will outlive it’s owners. Not a house that’s dated. The architect so hate me ehn cos I redesigned and took over about 4 of his projects. It wasn’t intentional though but who no like better thing. The interesting thing is good design and a bad one cost almost the same amount to build. I’m very sure they don’t sell cement/bricks for a nice design more expensive than they sell for boring designs. Do it right the first time! The major issh is most architects focus more on money than providing excellent services. _______ 1 Like

Focusmind: Yeah! That build was something else. Concept and model was designed by one of naija’s finest contemporary architect. We did some rework on the plan in-house at NextHome. I think I worked with few nairaland architects on redesigning the structure. I can remember Beetroot worked on the 3D and another guy from Play-in-architecture worked with us on the structural design. 1 Like

If you don't mind unsolicited advice, you can use any of the following measurements irrespective of the shape of the land; 1) Length 25 metres x breadth 18 metres. 2) Length 21.21 metres x breadth 21.21 metres. 3) Length 30 metres x breadth 15 metres. 4) Etc Key: Any two dimensions you want to use, just make sure their product (multiplication) equals 450 square metres. folmus: 2 Likes |
