extension : single storey terrace house

1st of all, thanks to Jath and his wonderful suggestion. if not mistaken, the pic above is what he suggested. A very good example for all of us to ponder of. Besides him, is there any more suggestion. This is another place we can voice out our dream house .(hehe~)
As for type B , really sorry that i dindt' mention well regarding how to get to the backyard. Actually there's a bifold door at bedroom 3 and master bedroom. The purpose of combining all 3 bedrooms together is to avoid sound pollution.
Refer to type A bedroom 3, one may always hear the sound of kitchen. Type B stress on serenity and it's a garden at the back of house. However, as mention by Jath, the kitchen in Type B will be a problem. One way to solve it is to change the plan again, another way is shut both kitchen and living room's door. lol ^_^
maybe change the side door of the living room to the front, so that kitchen will not affect the living room...
but I still have no idea yet, maybe it follows the US style whereby no goreng and goreng stuff happen in kitchen. I don't know, welcome to give more suggestion on that. Thank you.

Type A master bedroom are also commonly design in the way that the bathroom is in the middle.

Master piece

上个星期突然接到小姑的电话,说她要建新的屋子,要我帮忙设计。
回想10年前,那时她要结婚,所以建屋子,事隔10年,她又要建新家了(她丈夫够有钱!!)
上次的屋子设计图也是我帮她设计的,这次也不例外。
不同的是,那时是用纸和笔设计,时代变了,我当然也追上科技,改用电脑来做设计图。
前天告诉朋友我要为姑姑设计banglow, 吓了她一跳,然后问我干嘛还要读master.
说真的,以前刚考完SPM, 很想读architecture or interior design, 但是却到MMU念商业管理。入学的第一个星期,我还打包想回家了呢!但,我是很怕母亲的人,(也很懂事,怕丢我家的脸),所以就咬紧牙根,念完大学文凭。。。 现在还念master!!!真的很不可思议耶!!!
虽然9年未碰设计,多亏于 “homedesign software" 我才能完成这次的任务。
