MXarch, Week 42: The BoX House
Or "Test pattern house", describing its colours.
The TBXH (The BoX House) is a modern home to a modern man. It is made of 3m X 3m X 3m box components, wich are randomly placed. The pattern was designed to a paper randomly, and then I figured the other box places out.
The coloring is very simple, only scale of white to black, and the details are bright colours. This reminds of the television test card/pattern.
Pictures are not available yet, cause to a computer problem, but I have included a link to the model so you can download it and see it that way.

MIX Ambigram
An ambigram is a word, or phrase pictured to a form that the word is same when you rotate the picture 180 degrees.
After reading the book "Angels and demons" by Dan Brown, I made a ambigram of the word "MIX", If you rotate your head 180 degrees when looking it, the picture still says MIX!
Its quite easy to do those, just write a word, flip it over and tru to make it again over the old one. After a while you will get it.
And here it is...
Thats awesome!

Buildable (hope so) playhouse
Hi everybody
If you are reading this, you are one of the rare visitors of this site. I say to you, that if you like architecture and design, read the older posts too, because they are full of cool buildings created in Google Sketchup.
But back to the business...
This is an playhouse, that I think can be built. This playhouse is more like a one that boys would like to have in their near forest, and shoot people with a slingshot from there.
It has a foundation made of pallets, that you can get from any building site etc. If you build this, let me know, because I want to know does it work. Thank you.
Here are steps.
First put some pallets on ground to make a foundation to your house. 6 is a good amount. Place them like in the picture.
Next put a rectangle of plywood over the pallets, and fasten it with nails etc.
Make pillars of wood over the plywood as shown in the picture, and fasten them in the plywood. You see the structure better if you download the model from 3D Warehouse.
Add windows to both sides of the house. In the picture there is only one window, but it comes like that also on the other side.
After that add pieces of plywood or chipboard inside the hose and nail it on the struckture pillars. Remember to saw a hole to the windows!
This bit is the most time taking. You have to nail a nice exterior boarding made of planks. The measurements you can measure from the 3D model.
If you want, you can make a door in the house like that. The door can be any kind, but i made here a boarding door witch camouflages to the other boarding.
Also, you can make a neater flooring on the house if you dont want that plywood wloor. This is my suggestion, a stone floor, but it might be tricky and too expensive to make in this little playhouse.
The last thing to do is to put a roof made of plywood to your playhouse, and its ready! Hope these plans work. If someone tries to make this, please send a comment.

Wings
This design is named "Wings" because of its wing- like roof. I like this model a lot, because its my first model with a cloud backround. Ha ha! I made this about... 2 years ago, when I was just starting to use SU.
Only bad thing of the roof is that if it rains, the water cant get out of the roof. But there could be a rain gutter or something.
Feel free to comment this and all the other models!
So here is 5 wingy pictures:

Counter news, and a sneak peak to the future
I added a new counter to this page. This one should work, and it started counting today, 6.5.2009 at 14:46. The older view count (if it was right) was 3 140 036 visits!
And theres more to be coming: a model of a buildable playhouse, more pictures of the Future school, and other things.
So keep reading this blog!
[EDIT 6.5.2009 at 18:29] I realized that the old counter was not showing the right number... Only a few people has visited this blog. But I dont care, because I will still be writing this, because I like it!
