– That view’s awesome because you get both overhangs like coming back and dying right into that big wall. My name’s Andrew McClure, I’m a designer, and I specialize in custom, high-end residential design. Once you get a good project, we have a lot of client interaction, kind of get a sense of their personality, what their preferences are, really study the site and where the project is And how that impacts what the design’s gonna be. So you really take it from kind of an infancy stage and develop it all the way through to hopefully some kind of beautiful piece of architecture. I’m a complete newb with the Minecraft. I had my little cousin Carter show me it On his iPad for a couple hours. You know, I’m just gonna kind of wing it and hopefully that some of the 3-D software I use translates. Today I think I’m gonna try to do a house, something similar to maybe what we would be doing in the office, Just kind of wing it a little bit and give it a go. Every time you’re starting a project, you really want to study all the environmental factors and sun patterns and everything and how that affects the design ’cause that’s super important with natural lighting and sustainability, basic functions. If you’ve got a pool, you want it to be in the sun, If you’ve got a garden, things like that, rooms, you want to have certain overhangs. This is a pretty good site, it looks like there’s some cool sand dunes over here, and how you’ve got water kind of on both sides. The first thing I’m going to do is try To kind of just lay out the foundation. So this is probably going to be the entry here, I kind of want to come in looking at sort of those mountains in the distance, so we’re gonna build this pretty wide, grand entry, kind of like a palace or something. You know, this is basically an aerial view, kind of of the footprint, so I want to have this part basically be the entry, that’s kind of coming in over the water feature in between those two mountains. On the left there, that will be some kind of big stone wall, Kind of an anchoring element that gets you through and into the house and kind of will continue as a nice, I think, cohesive element. And then these will be the bedrooms over here. This will be sort of a side-loaded garage. There’s like zombies and stuff, so we’re gonna ward those guys off. Feels like it’s an ancient ruins. This would be bedroom one, bedroom two, and maybe a hangout area in between. I’m not gonna get into all the detail of bathrooms and whatever, we’re just focusing on the architecture. Well that’s kind of starting to frame something, come out of the ground a little bit. This would be a great little guest house for the parents. So their kids can come over here and you can have one kid in this room, one kid in that room and they can go play Minecraft. I’m gonna start introducing the roof plane. I want to do one lower one here, That would give you your normal ceiling height in these secondary spaces and in the garage. Then what we’ll do is we’ll start filling in the overhangs with some wood soffits. I like the idea of kind of also accentuating some of these more prominent walls. So if we can get a light right there, that kind of wall-washes that element. Now you start to see those walls a lot clearer and emphasize kind of certain experiences like when you’re walking and we can Kind of illuminate the pathway there. So now I’m just kind of coming around the backside, or the interior side of the guest house. These can be sliding door or something. But for this glass, I want to try to take it up a little bit further. So this glass will actually go all the way up to the higher ceiling. So you can let some light there into the clerestory windows. Now we’re gonna go back and we’re gonna put the second roof on. That look pretty good, I think. Except now we’re really running out of room here for this second half of the house, so we might have to just cantilever it out over the water, but that’s cool. Just gonna cost a little bit more. This is gonna be the courtyard because I want To be able to space this part of the house out against the main part of the house and have a big, nice courtyard here that’s kind of framing that mountain and maybe put like a water feature or a pool or something there. That’s a pretty steep cantilever. But, whatever. We’ll put some supports there, eventually. That’s a big bedroom. You know what I gotta do. Okay, let’s work on the kitchen side now. This can be like a little sit-up bar, and you could kind of open those up and serve your hamburgers and hot dogs and margarita. I need to do the doors here, that’s right. Three bays, now we just need a big tree here. It’s a decent looking tree. I think what I’m going to do is dig out the sand, create like a pool/shell bottom and then fill it with water. That looks a little better. This is the front facade here and two nice roof planes with the steel fascia on it. On the right, that’s the finished guest house, and in between the garage and the main house, we’ve got a nice little garden, so you come out of the garage here and walk by the garden, Get some nice natural light. So when you come in to the courtyard, you kind of see that same repeating roof element. Nice kind of transition here, walk across the lily pads with the water wall, comes down, and this whole interior courtyard pool opens up to the view Of those mountains slash sand dunes over there. We’re coming in the front door to the great room here. Big sliding door system here that can disappear and you can have this beautiful vista of the mountains in the distance. We’ve got the kitchen over here with the skylight And a nice window looking right at the son, we’ve got a diamond island here with a poss through so you can serve outside, and these doors open up. To a nice deck out here. And then the master, we’ve got its own fireplace, sliding doors, (glass shattering), hang out here in bed, looking at those mountain peaks over there in the distance. And this is kind of a nice aerial perspective at night with all the lights on. Let’s see all the beautiful roof planes, come down in here into the courtyard, and then that massive cantilever deck on the backside, we’ve got the fire roaring here, another one here in the master. Not a small house. This is a decent representation of kind of the stuff that we do. Definitely a lot more detail and a lot more planning going into a real project. I’m ready to move in.
