Fine render.
Yet time to revise construction codes, tastes, or details... I am wondering why they repeat the same style/material/construction skills... while witnessing that is vulnerable to fire... It is like making iglos in tropical climate, just because I used to iglos....

Excellent render

Hold the phone! Change in plans. He decided to nix the overhangs fire protection since embers end up there and start fires. Also increased the roof pitch. The floor plan stays the same. I left the windows and door in place except for the new entry design. I know some people prefer the 50s ranch look but what the client wants the client gets.

A few houses in the general neighborhood area survived but the rest is burned down and almost looks flattened. A lot of the old house had those wide overhangs. Some with exposed rafter tails. A fire rated soffit board could help. Roof vents are another access point for embers. I assume we'll be seeing a lot of houses being rebuilt without overhangs.

He also said he wasn't an Alfa-Romeo guy.

Wait! Hold the phone again! That's a Singer Porsche 911. It might distract from an architectural rendering. I think the model is by Luis Lara Osorio,. Not sure. I like the previous more modern version of this house but this is identical to the original house that was burned to the ground during the LA fires.

I have to agree but, when they pay....... No way the Beetle gets in the way of the render, class will out.

Lovely.

Thanks Rich. I think the driveway swallowed up the 911 though.

[Gus R]

Fixed.

Very nice. I like the zero entry front door. Is it zero entry from the garage?

Thanks Dave. It's a double door into a hallway. Here's the floor plan.

Well done as always!
