And I had hopes you had a plan to get a free house!:roll:

**dirtydog** · 23-11-2005, 06:12 PM

I was offered a free house before at some school about 30km from Pattaya, it was so bad that even the teachers there didn't want to live there, I suppose thats the sort of place most teachers get offered here in Thailand when they offer free accomodation in with the package deal.

**poolcleaner** · 23-11-2005, 06:13 PM

Have you still got the number?

**dirtydog** · 23-11-2005, 06:18 PM

It's inbetween here and BanChang, we had to stick a new roof on the school cafeteria, never did have the number as the work was paid for by some charity organisation.

they all seem a bit monstrous DD

any plans of shacks?

How about a good architect that actually can plan a modern house without it looking like a mansion for a fuckwit

I will be building a house in Chiang Mai in the future, so want something modern but not nouveau riche looking

If you want a bladdy good English architect with about 15 years experience working in this part of the world, PM me and I'll give you the details.

Send a site survey map and kind of shacks you want to build and material you want to you. I might be able to help since I have plan files 1000 sq. ft. homes and less that's single story. It's be interesting to build a home in LOS with US specifications.

actually, I like wooden houses, we have one at the moment. But the wifey wants something less noisy (from the outside, that is...dogs, music,chickens and drunken brawls) so a concrete one is likely. I have to agree with her! She does like wooden floors though.

Maybe a house based on the Straits Chinese ones in Malaysia...long places with an open central courtyard, really nice. It gives you a quiet place for coffee without any distractions! not much view though.

I gather you are a bloody good architect? Is there any need in LOS for architects or engineers?

Not me. I'm a bladdy good beer drinker though.

There is a need for architects here, but all the ones I know are specialists on the Skytrain/Underground projects.

I worked on Washington D.C. and New York City subway tunnels as an engineer but I don't recall seeing any architect on the projects. What capacity do they use the architects for Skytrain and Underground projects?

I met an engineer who worked on new airport between Bangkok and Pattaya. He worked for TAMS and said they hired all the local contractor for the projects.

**Marmite the Dog** · 13-12-2005, 12:17 PM

The architectural work is on the stations, not the tunnels.

Smashing house plane Dougal!

How much do you want for them?

**Dougal** · 17-12-2005, 02:46 PM

This is only a floor layout Poolie I need to get to it turned into a proper plan for presenting to the land office. What size is your land and how many rooms do you want?

**poolcleaner** · 17-12-2005, 03:19 PM

I'm dreaming.

It's years away for me!

**dirtydog** · 17-12-2005, 04:29 PM

Do you really need 4 bedrooms dougal? also the main bedroom should really be in the corner of the building so you can have 2 window walls.

**Marmite the Dog** · 17-12-2005, 04:49 PM

Also, I wouldn't recommend a cyan pick-up. That colour is so 'last year'.

**Dougal** · 17-12-2005, 04:52 PM

Thanks for the suggestions.

Its really just an exercise to see how much can be slotted in to a given shape. Giving each bedroom its own bathroom meant I had to put them in the corners to keep the bedrooms square. The master bedroom does open onto the pool.

I need to think seriously about whether there is more demand for 3 or 4 bedrooms as I want to sell this one.
