Swedish Designer House

[Dr. Brick]

Hi Everybody!

It's been ages since I presented a creation, but finally here is my newest LDD MOC: Swedish Designer House.

Sorry all the images are links but couldn't insert them in my post for some reason I haven't found yet. Maybe one of the moderators could help me with this? Thanks!

It's based on a picture I found in my german course book. A house built completely out of glass and wood. Eventhough imine is clopetely built with digital plastic I'm still proud of it!

Here we can see the huge window made with the new 1x2x3 windows. I love the new window system, so simple but really good looking!

The back of the house is not really interesting, wasn't really supposed to be. I am planning to build this thing in real and the back would face my bedroom wall, so I won't waste a lot of money on it.

The front is a bit more interesting. i really tried to use as much glass as possible, but still keep the neatral tan feel. I don't feel the windows are excessive.

There are a two pieces here I would rather have done in a different colour, but LDD still doesn't give acces to. The grey floor in the middle needs to be tan, and the dark grey LURP needqs to be green. (this house needs to stand beside my vestas windmill )

Here we can see the other side of the building, not very special. This side also wouldn't be visible. More on the contents of the room later.

Here is a shot of the roof, which was a bit of a challenge. I think it is stable but it's always a bit hard to tell with digital models how the forces of gravity would affect it in real life...

This house is completely modular, the roof can come of to show the inside:

And also the second story can come of to reveal the kitchen and the toilet. The loo is a failure, I didn't really have the right pieces. I wanted to build one as in 7905 building crane.

So why call it Swedish Designer House. Well when I finished it I was listening to the song Swedish Designer Drugs (which I ironically hate) and I thought the house looked like it could be set in Sweden beside an Ikea and it sortoff designerish. (I don't like the song, but I LOVE Sweden and Ikea!)

That's all I have to say, I should be showing you another LDD modular building soon. Comments welcome!

Oh and here is the Brickshelf gallery. (when moderated)

Nice house. It looks nice in digital, but if built of bricks, I think you would want to add more detailing. However, the simplicity does remind me of an architectural model.

A nice design, I have tried to post an image of yours as well, perhaps it has to do with BMP files?

If you save the files as jpegs and upload to BS again this should remedy the problem.

all my LDD screenshots are BMP and they upload just fine. IMO, this house would look very good beside the 4999 Vestas Promo. Good amount of windows and I like the loft design inside.
