cimddwc Posted March 5, 2012 Well, it doesn't have to be fancy to be nice. And nice it is! Especially the upper floor with the bathroom. Though I'd tile the lower floor; it looks a bit too much like they're walking on grass there... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eurotrash Posted March 5, 2012 That's a nice looking structure! Thanks for sharing it with us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redhead1982 Posted March 5, 2012 As you said, nothing fancy and small, but it's lovely. The interior is full of amazing and surprising details. You managed quite well to put everything in. My favourite is definitely the bath tub - I haven't seen it like that before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
solta Posted March 5, 2012 Incredibly good looking house. The roof is my favorite. The upper floor is amazing. Good job. Keep building. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Star2705 Posted March 5, 2012 Very nice and warm. I really like the bedroom with bathroom, especially the use of cloak for shower curtain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
F0NIX Posted March 5, 2012 Fantastic house! Very realistic, and actually it has a Norwegian style as a wooden house. It looks like some of the houses built in the 1970-1980 era. Lots of details. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted March 5, 2012 Tile that ground floor and you'll have the most AWESOME house ever , apart from the no tiles on the ground floor, the rest of it is wonderful. The bedroom and bathroom is excellent, the old classic town style sticker as a wall poster is a nice touch. Great work 'happymark' and Brick On ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted March 5, 2012 Wow this house looks so real ...this is a prefect example of new building school like this fantastic train station As Jonas said in that topic: 1) almost total omission of LEGO bright colours (no red, yellow or blue bricks), only those sand and other decent colours, 2) very realistic dimensions Superb work!

L@go Posted March 6, 2012 I really like this - especially the exterior design. Like F0NIX said, it's something that wouldn't have looked out of place among Norwegian '70s to '80s houses, so it looks very familiar, and very realistic. I agree that the ground floor should be tiled, that would be a great finishing touch. I'm very curious as to what lies beneath that upper floor - the 'half floor' underneath, is it empty, since you haven't included any pictures of it? And lastly, I agree with lightningtiger - the hot rod sign as a wall poster is a great idea. I loved it as soon as I spotted it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vindicare Posted March 6, 2012 This is great. A house doesn't have to be big and elaborate to be fancy. I thi k you did a spot on job here. All the necessary details are there. Except the top floor is a bit cramped. No privacy either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeanM Posted March 6, 2012 This is a handsomely designed house. It's very modern and the top floor interior is great. Well done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LEGO Guy Bri Posted March 6, 2012 Lovely house 'happymark'. I love the details on the inside. That poster was a great idea! Do you plan to tile in the kitchen? I think that would complete this build. Great job Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gotoAndLego Posted March 6, 2012 I think I lived in a house like that when I was younger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
happymark Posted March 6, 2012 Thank you all of you, for the all the comments and compliment! I did tile the kitch and family room. it does look much better now.. I also changed the coffee table. which I think it fits pretty well! also. I took the pictures for just-finished lower level.. a laundry room and LEGO room! oh yeah!

That lower level is fab - it's a bit cramped, naturally, the sofa for instance is too small to seat minifigs - but it does look good. The transparent shield used as a table is very clever. And even a Lego room :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chuckie8646 Posted March 7, 2012 Hi This is very very cool. I really like how realistic it is. All the detail you used is fabulous. And the Gungon shield as a coffee table is a very neat idea probably one of the best uses of an element I've seen. Great work Charlie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Combee Posted March 7, 2012 This is very well done! I particularly love the use of the shield as the coffee table!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the_comedian Posted March 7, 2012 fantastic!! great and realistic design, my favourite part was the RC highway, with the little house and car, is really nice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tedbeard Posted March 7, 2012 This is great, especially all the wonderful interior detail. The LEGO room in particular is a nice touch. I did have to laugh a little though. I saw the first picture and thought, "why a toilet seat for a basketball hoop?" Of course, not everyone is using that part for a toilet seat but it is just kinda stuck in my brain now so that's all I see when I see one in white or black. That said, I might use use it for just that effect in a trailer-trash MOC sometime where a toilet seat as a basketball hoop would make sense. Thanks for indulging the silly digression.

Redhead1982 Posted March 7, 2012 Well done! I like how you improved your model. It looks better with tiling. I guess my first impression of green plates is grass, and that doesn't fit in the house. But more than that, you added my favourite room - Lego room. The containers for storage look great, and the best part of it is the 'modular Lego layout' on the table.
