The Great House Design

It is possible to design a large house with a small budget. To do this, we must invest heavily in architectural design. A good example is the house in Kitengela Allan Donovan is designed with a concept in West Africa on the rooftop of the mind boxes on the parapet.

Another example is the Hacienda Eco City Development of Mombasa is also the design of an Africa Western / Islamic architectural design with a flat roof and pigeon holes on the elements of the parapet wall.

The State Presidential Lodge in Sagana, Nyeri is also a great piece of architecture using architectural design to achieve great things without having to use expensive materials. This is a simple rectangular house with hipped roof and low aluminum double hung windows.

The use of technology also affect the budget. New roofing materials lighter, like tiles in stone coated steel roof to save the amount of wood trusses to support the roof.

The type of foundation will also affect costs. Estates, as in the Eastlands area of Jericho were built on a raft foundation type is very inexpensive to implement. The ground floor slab is supported by the joists are placed on the soil surface so no excavation and foundation wall is made.

On the wall elements in the superstructure of stone masonry Nairobi area is easily accessible is not expensive. A cost-effectiveness to achieve the elegance is to have the stone in his hand wearing a design of your liking. Hand-cut stone out of character to your home and you will save in terms of maintenance, because they hardly ever requires maintenance.

Prefabricated houses are gradually in the Kenyan market. These houses are the answer to affordable housing in developed countries like the United States, China and Europe, and it is a matter of time until they find their place in Kenya.

Finally, building design and use of appropriate technology can greatly reduce the construction of your home.
