Plumbing Plan

Plumbing fixtures and pipes are what bring water and essentials to the home. My plumbing plan effectively brings cold and hot water to the home and then waste out of it. Water goes to the kitchen sink, refrigerator, washing machine, bathtub, water closet, and lavatory. Vents are added to all the drains inside the walls. A legend is added to help understand the water flow and colored pipes show what is being transported.

Electrical Plan

Electricity is vital to the nature of the home. I added functioning lights that would move from room to room seamlessly. Upon entering the room, the ability to turn both the kitchen and living room lights at the same time is given. Also the circuits are done so that the lights in each of the rooms can be turned on individually. Power outlets and prevalent and hidden in the home for function without being seen. Most of the lighting throughout the house is circular nickle plated frosted lights. The kitchen has dual tri-lighting to maximize lighting. Hanging exterior lights were also added to the porch by means of look and exterior lighting.

Not So Big House

The Not So Big House is a cultural movement revolutionizing the way homes are being built today. Variations of height in the ceilings change the habitats of the rooms. It's the "feel" of the home which is important, not the size. The experience of the room in it's three dimensions resides in the home. Visual weight can be used to change perceptions. Smooth, light colors add size and dark textured areas cut off mobility. Framed openings add new entries to rooms giving distinct characteristics which play integrating functions quietly. Weaving of themes, variations, personal touches, and lifestyle patterns that creates a whole that's profoundly satisfying.
