#1: Is that the bathroom visible through the lower-level window on the left? There appears to be a sliding privacy screen, for both levels together, but it's on the outside, so must be operated by some kind of mechanical control from inside. So you reach the bathroom, desperate to poo forth a turd, and you have to wait for the screen to slide over and block off the window. And heaven help you if it jams, or worse, if you're in mid-poo and the person upstairs decides he wants some light and makes the screen slide open.
ReplyDelete#2: Appears to be made of metal. Hope it's not a hot sunny climate.
#3: Do not set up near a port. Too easy to mistake for a shipping container. You'd wake up one morning and find your entire house was on a ship en route to Vladivostok.
#4: Actually looks pretty nice. What's behind the upper-level windows? Not enough height for a second floor.
#5: "AI"? Nothing looks like that. Side wall covered with roof tiles?
Infidel - I'm guessing that #1 is actually a cabin in a remote area, so that screen is used only to protect the windows when the visit is over. The upper-level windows on #4 is where the loft bedroom is usually positioned. #5 is, indeed, a computer-generated image. As Anon, below, mentioned, wooden shingles are often used on exterior walls. They're very popular in New England. I, myself, have seen asphalt shingles used on the exterior. Perhaps they're cheaper than actual siding. I don't really know.
Delete#1 Actually the toilet is next to the entrance stairs and thus shielded from view. What you see thru the window is the wash basin, behind that is a bath tub. The small fishing cabin sits alone in a remote, wet and cold wood, with occasional flooding. Sliding steel shields, like a barn door, protect it from the rough weather. The interiors are warm wood. Not visible in the image, in the back ground the entire front can be opened to offer full view of the Sol Duc river in Washington.
DeleteAnon@12:37am - Thanks for inspiring me to Google that first one.
DeleteHouse # 1, must be in a flood zone if it’s built on stilts and expensive to insure, no thanx !
ReplyDeleteHouse # 5, have seen an old tract home covered by wooden shake roof tiles all over the outside walls, a haven for termites.

The last two are cute. The one looks like a public toilet. The yellow one looks homemade (badly) and the first one is intriguing.

ReplyDelete#4) I'm loving this one. Looks cozy and even can take a walk out in the woods.
