As soon as 4th Mainland bridge is completed for easy cruise from Lekki to shagamu via Ikorodu

I am curious to see this cute duplex without An ante room

90 mins anywhere from Lekki/Ajah by road or waterways through Ikorodu, you're there tomorrow for sight-seeing.

4th Mainland is over 900 days away.

If I bring EgunMogaji and FastShipping... it may reach 40 peoples, otherwise... may be like 10 ppl.
So your Porch is good enough. LOL!

Hajji M.

Mods like the Porch. +1 with you Sir. And you should know my preference. Gentle. Friendly. Calm. Not Troublesome...

I'm not planning to host World Cup and have you referee a match without whistle at the Chateau

mufutau55:
I am highly honored... No, not shy o. But I always walk with mucho entourage, more of a security personnel.
Thanks Oga Brabus.

Hajji M.

Everyone is welcome so long they pass through level 3 security for your interest and mine.
How many coming? Porch sits 10 conveniently. Lounge will do 12. Compound 40 men, 15 cars.

If there are more, we will detail them on the adjoining streets and the perimeters.

mufutau55:
Anyway.. my last msg was modified to add this line:

"Anyway.. I am coming to your house for my Non-Alcoholic Hennessy whenever I come home... for more inspection. "

Hajji M.

Hmm! You, an ex mod on this section, mod ify your last msg to add new line that you're coming to my mod ified building which has only been visited a Nairaland mod erator, not even colleagues or clients.

I'll prepare ground a big reception. I hope you no dey shy sha!

We go treat you like village King.

mufutau55:
Some lines intentionally deleted....

Yes.. all you could have told Segcy is that "the Waiting room" has eliminated. but not to go see an Eye Doctor...
But anyway, that is what I would have said...

Some people like Anter-room (Waiting Room) and some don't.. it's not a biggie. each to its own.
Anyway case closed.

Hajji M.

He asked for eye glasses and I had to increase the font of the text for him to read a more legible words. Beside, his request was for an orator to write him an epic response...

Anyway, long and short of the whole exercise is this I'm not a fan of an ante room. Never Had, Never Will.

FastShipping:
Where do they sell this type (contemporary) of furniture in Lagos? They preach we should buy in Nigeria but are everything available in Nigeria for some of us who love things that are done right.

Tomorrow morning.

Meanwhile, here's something close to the table in pic 2 picked from Romel Furnitures, ISC Lagos

If by tomorrow I show a picture of a dog-legged staircase, someone else will say I didn't mention staircase was modified o. I saw straight flight.

If by next week, I show a picture of another double door in the living room to the family area, another person will say we are talking about what we see and not what you built.

If I show picture of a lounge without bar, some set of people will say baba baraburus, this is not what you posted online.

Na wa o!


Why ignore the comment "a lot of mod" in the first place?

mufutau55:
Brabus like to play with words or try to turn things around.

Comprehension? This is his quote from the first message... never mention any modification of Waiting room...
"Otherwise, here's the old ground floor plan to see what was done. A lot of mod has been made to the guest area as it affects the upper floor."

I think I am blind too... but then I have been getting those injections in my eyeballs anyway... But I saw what you saw, Oga Segcy.

Hajji M.

I like the way you put it.

My chateau is in Sagamu. Will you be able to send someone to go and get you as-built plan so that you can know what mods have been done?

They can do it as early as possible tomorrow morning.

Meanwhile, here are the mods.

- No bar
- No straight flight staircase
- No waiting room
- No guest bedroom opening to the dining
- No partitioning of the kids playroom and guest bedroom
- Double double introduced in the lobby/hallway
- TV position changed
- Double glass block flank the entry door as against one in the old drawing.

Now, if you find anything different from that by tomorrow morning 12:00 noon latest, then you can come and say something about Brabus.

I'm still struggling to understand why this is so difficult.

Should I have say "This plan is Brabus Chateau that the waiting room, guest bedroom door removed, laundry cancelled, straight flight stair cancelled..." Or "This plan is Brabus Chateau and a lot of mods have been made to the guest area"

We are not talking about one or two modifications here. More than 10 changes have been effected.

Anyway, there's no ante room in my chateau.

segcymoor:
'Man of the people' why are making things difficult.

Simply put u don't fancy Ante room! Good reason left to you. I respect u for ur opinion Bros.
But the fact remains that the floor plan u posted reflect a waiting room. In which according to you has being modified due to ur dislike to ante room.


-------------
We are making reference to what we see and not what u built bro.

Me Ke? I'm only making reference to my comment on the plan posted not even the house. You know it na. When there's a comment on any drawing. You follow the comments and not the drawing because it's there for a reason.

My comment on the plan reads "Plan has been modified" and not "Plan is as-built"
So if you ignore the comment and follow the plan posted then you're the one who's wrong and not me. Do you agree?

Architects in the house, do you agree?

____
@ Hajji Mufutau55,

My response above still suffice. This little thing we are talking about is very very important. Even segcymoor will agree with me that you need to pay attention to every comments on a drawing otherwise one may make a serious mistake on site.
You can go back and read my post again and my specific comment on the drawing.

The best thing to do is to ask, what modifications have you made on this drawing in case one wants to build the same house or something. Then I can come up with list of mods done.

cleric:
Oga Segun,

I have never involved myself with anything that has to do with Brabus. But what you pointed out is very clear and his denying what is glaring is quite appalling. Sometimes, a man should apologize and if need be, clarify any thing that was misconstrued. I see no reason why he couldn't apologise then admit that it was later modified.

Apologize for making it clear from onset that I'm posting an old plan which has been modified. Or do you think I modified my comment after segcymoor quoted me? Why do you guys make an issue out of nothing?

And what will the apology do? Put an ante room in a house that doesn't have one. Or give a better sleep?

Now I understand!

________
I don't have an ante and I never need one. Sorry! Visitors are either in or out not in-between. Those chairs in the pic are for visitors that made it pass my gate in case you don't know. Anything after that is the living room or dining. Abi make we show the whole house so that we can proof ante room no dey? Na wa o!

Thank you anyway for saying something about Brabus.

segcymoor:
OK o. I will get one ASAP

So u mean this very floor plan has been modified

Yes!

1 Day Comprehension Class after the Eye Test won't be a bad idea.

agarawu23:
ok sir! Only if they are pocket friendly ni sha.

I'll have a welder fabricate this for me at a very reasonable cost. Just that I'm a bit lazy this days.

segcymoor:
An Ante room is a space or lobby prior to the main area in the house.in such a way that door does not lead directly outside.

So what are we saying?

What I'm saying is that I'm not having an ante because I don't want doors that lead directly outside my house.

I think different!

_____
In pic attached, the visitor have their place outside. And the second pics shows the blind opened and a view of the out world from the settee. The cake was Val cake. Don't mind me!

So, for me, visitors are either in our out! Not in-between

#WhatDoYouThink?

agarawu23:
cool. Are they removable asin without stress?

They're sliding shutters as can be seen in the picture.

Agarawu23, here's trellidor shutters. I'm sure a good welder can do this for you.

segcymoor:
Egbami lowo Bros burabubus o.

Someone should please borrow me eye glass o

Sure you need a good eye glass bro!! Meanwhile I've increased the font size. Try again

#What'sAtStake

agarawu23:
what if I decide not to do your own method especially a house that's fully completed and occupied? There is nothing impossible to me if we can make research

I'm not asking you to follow my method. I'm just telling you to think of the reason why you wanted an openable burglar proof is to have a means of escape in case there's fire.

However, isn't it far more better to think of how to prevent the spread of fire in the first place.

If it's a built up house, it won't be a bad idea to think of collapsible burglar proofs like the one Trellidoors is marketing

Segcymoor, where's the ante room? Wetin I wan take am do? With all the spaces shown here and there.

So unfortunate, I cannot do a walk through video for you until December.

The porch door opened directly into the dining, with the back parlor just to the right. Once you make it past the porch, you're more than a casual friend.

Pics: 30sqm Porch and Kitchen Dry Area in case you come in wet.

agarawu23:
is there any material that can be used to disguise as burglary but can be removable without stress?

We can just use it in one of the rooms in our house as escape route incase of any kasala and only family members will know its an escape route to avoid intruder noticing.

Is there any?

There's no point disguising. You only need a good fire exclusion strategy and good security system.

All my rooms run on DC Power from the Solar-Powered inverter. Unless there's a serious fire I really don't know what will cause spread of fire from room to room. They all have POP, fire-rated laminated floors and tiles and mainboard is placed in the lobby.

I really don't want to share this floor plan until I'm sure the coast is clear and the enemies camp don cease fire Otherwise, here's the old ground floor plan to see what was done. A lot of mod has been made to the guest area as it affects the upper floor.

The guest area is completely cut off from the family area.

toys2seven:
Professional bodies should restrict and sanction surveyors, estate managers, civil engineers, etc from also taking up the work of an architect.
It's disrespectful and it can lead to future hazard.

That's how I saw one medical doctor who has building design projects, just because he has learnt how to use AutoCAD

Suffice to say the government has failed us in Nigeria woefully.

Buildings collapse because the Standard Organization are sleeping while substandard iron rods are been sold into the market. Of course, where there's no consequence, evil will triumph.

How do we explain learning design within 4 weekends. What will the person be taught?

FastShipping:
Don't blame burglary proof we use on our windows and doorways. Some of our people are just plainly stupid. Look at the gas cylinders in the picture you posted and tell me who in their right mind have gas cylinders in their kitchen. Gas cylinders are meant to be outdoor and not be stored in the kitchen.

I'm not a fan of burglary proof though.

5 years running without burglary in the guest area of my chateau.

Any masked men who could breach level 1 & 2 security without awakening the dogs and the motion detectors must be a Tom Cruise.

No single burglar proof in the guest area not even the kitchen and ancilliary rooms.

Architectural Designs | Ideal Furniture Sizes and Spaces to Maximize Good Circulation.

It's not compulsory to have this arrangement by default but it should help to make best of our designs.
There are so many good designs on paper but they're non-functional when built because of lack of good space planning.

yuskol03:
the architect should consult a professional Surveyor for the preliminary knowledge of the site i.e survey plan

I think a preliminary site visit should be a must for any design architect prior to designing any building. Most of the time, people just buy architectural plans online without site visit only to discover that some of the design elements won't fit the lot they purchase.

Critical factors to pay attention to includes the topography of the land, the soil condition, the streetscape (I hate designs that put a round peg in a square hole eg. Putting a 3 level building in midst of bungalows), orientation (at times the main design are placed in areas where you hardly notice them), position to maximize good airflow and so many more.

I'm sure we will all agree these are no fault of the client. He's not the professional here.

xmileeasy:
Raised bungalows are nice concept. Visited my boss residence in his village. From the exterior view I thought it was just a bungalow, stepping into the building my perception changed seeing the pent floor with 3 bedrooms, two store and a sitting room.

Very correct. Who could have imagined that the building attached is a bungalow with a pent structure.

Lighter load. Safer structure. Yet beautifully crafted.

There are so many beautiful concept like this around. We only need creative designers and architects.

Thanks for sharing on this thread.

I never fancied complicated houses, they are expensive and difficult to maintain, if you ask me, bungalow is the best, no collapse and easy to maintain, it just requires at least two plots

How about raised bungalows? Bungalows with a pent floor.
