My thoughts? Who the hell would let "some guys" into their house to look around?whiteribbon wrote: ↑Sun Aug 26, 2018 5:45 pm ...
Getting to the point now, 3 or 4 weeks ago some guys showed up at my gate that I didn't know but seemed friendly etc. They asked to look at the house. I vaguely recognised one of them because another member here is using him as his architect so saw his pic before on social media. So sure, look around.
...
Your thoughts?

i appreciate you posted the build, but than why get upset if someone uses some of ur ideas??whiteribbon wrote: ↑Sun Aug 26, 2018 10:20 pmCan't compare a 2 million$ villa in Sandbanks to a 100.000 something house in Kep Sir. I drive a Hyundai, I'm not bragging at all. Just posting for people that are interested, if you are not, just skip.Hotdigr wrote: ↑Sun Aug 26, 2018 9:59 pm Seriously? Is that the best whinge you could come up with? Keep your fukn first world problems to yourself mate. Its an ok looking house, but nothing all that flash compared to what you see in Torquay or Byron Bay or Noosa AND its not like you designed it yourself. Go and buy yourself an automatic watchwinder to bitch about FFS.
Like hotdig said, (regarding Oz) Phuket has hundreds of similar, an nicer designed pool villa places here for around $120,000...( cost- not sale)
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

You mean the 12 year old looking French kid who claims to be an architect? These designs?whiteribbon wrote: ↑Sun Aug 26, 2018 5:45 pm I saw him posting and advertising 'his' design that almost looked exactly like my house, no credit to my architects either.
If it is the same kid you're talking about, I remember a while back he posted several house designs which he claimed to be his own original designs, however it was quickly discovered that he had just copied them from a website and got called out on it, he quickly deleted the posts and stopped posting on the group.

It's true, it is the sincerest form of flattery. It boils my blood when my ideas get copied, but I have to remind myself that at least I have imagination, I'd hate to be the person that only has copying to rely on for their phony style!
