Really like this.
1) Simple design
2) All plumbing at one end of house
3) Silo stairs allow greater freedom in internal layout
4) Easily extended?
5) Tiny footprint -
Main Level: 6876) Excellent use of ground area without wasting space like most roofs do.
Second Level: 687
Total: 1,374 Sq. Ft.
Bedrooms: 3
Baths: 2
Width: 23'
Depth: 29'
Stories: 2
Foundations: Slab
7) Easily scaled up. what could you do with a 45' by 60' version?
Extra ideas...
- Bathroom on ground just needs to be wc. But en-suite needed for master upstairs.
- Could be built on a plot too small for other house designs.
- How about adding suntrap/lookout tower etc onto the silo?
- Carry on the stairs to a sunroom? Sun-bathing/drying washing/flood light in via windows to stairs and even a central sun-tube carrying extra light? Could make a sunroom with top clear, but not sides for our / neighbours privacy. Use a conservatory roof design?
- Have a basement with a swimming pool / games room. Endless pool with sunlight via sun-tube carried by silo?
- Have lots of skylights on lower roof?
