[QUOTE="andrew gissing, post: 73214, member: 75"] Re: Home building/living suggestions wanted. High ceilings. In the extension we built most rooms are 1 or 2 courses of brick higher than normal; and in our open plan living area - 4.5m peak on a raked ceiling. Conduit pops up strategically in the middle of the floor into a stainless steel box with powercon & speakon output (power con feeds a 4-way board for light etc. Using the roof cavity as storage space - done properly with a floor you can stand on without fear of falling through; a pull down ladder to get there. Recycled brick feature wall. Rainwater captured to a tank for drinking/gardens normal sized garage doors but spaced wider apart and garage wider than normal so you can open car door fully without hitting other car or wall I wish I went with timber door frames all round instead of metal pre-fab for some, timber for others.
