Your perfect place

[Aaron]

I've been thinking a lot lately about building a house. Not that I can afford to do it, but I've just been daydreaming about what I'd like.

Always liked the idea of an oval room with a couch that goes around the edge and big rugs. A kind of gig/recording room essentially.
Always wanted a pool room (with sticks, not water).
I don't know if I need a garden though. A roof top apartment type thing might suit me.

But yeah, what would your dream place have?

[Cuclean]

A games room with several enourmous televisions. A small gym and a full bar.

[By-tor]

My garage, and a Dance party in it, following one of the coolest gigs ever. ;)

[DarthMaulRat]

My basic idea for that perfect place would be a log cabin with two distinct sections, the all electronic side and the rustic side. Sound proofed living room with projection TV, all the gadjets, etc. The other side wouldn't even have electrical outlets, just furniture and spaces to ease the mind and get away from it all. I'm thinking the kitchen would be the hybrid space. Wood fired stove, but also a fridge.

A killer home theatre:

A sweet ass kitchen:

Badass entertainment room with a bar.

Those would be the three primary rooms. And those photos make pretty good examples

[Doctor Mowinckel]

In my 'dream house' fantasies (girl talk!) location is always the most important. I'd like to live somewhere up north, that's far enough from a place like Edmonton or Prince George that I can have some space, but not so far away that getting into town is a journey more than a drive.

Basically someplace between Westlock and Edmonton.

My perfect pad would be to have a Bungalow with a basement.
A master bedroom (16 feet by 18 feet).
A hallway being 6 feet wide.
High ceilings, for both basement and upstairs.
A home theatre in the basement.
A nice big bathroom upstairs with a urinal.
A nice big powder room downstairs with a tampon dispenser.
And a large assortment of furniture.
Oh and a DVD room being 32 feet by 32 feet looking like a blockbuster or a Rogers Video, shout out to the Canadians. (With all the games and movies including the fridge thing and the candy stand and new releases)

[Scottbob75]

My perfect place would be right off a huge lake with a stair leading up to the house with many drinks on tap, A hugh Barn for partys and brew my own beer. Also have the enitre place wired up like Pasly Park with speakers and mics everywhere so anyone could podcast from anyroom in the compound. And have everyone over for a HUGE party with everyone on the board and have Quick-Con at the compound. It's good to dream

All I can see is an albino who flagellates himself.

I'm surprised no-one has mentioned having a grotto yet.

[freetoaster]

Don't you need to be a swinger to have a grotto?

If I had large sums of cash, I'd build an exact, life size replica of the Millennium Falcon and live in it. Alone. Because by the point I have the landing gear built, Jen would have left me. So then it wouldn't exactly be perfect. Damn.

Oh well.

So she wouldn't dress up like Leia and call you a scoundrel?

[JK]

I dunno... the scoundrel part would come no matter what. :D

Is that what you call him?

Captain Happy Fun Time is a consummate smuggler, sometimes even hiding himself in secret compartments.






Oh good Lord, it's too early for this :D

Oh, man. I'd have several themed rooms of awesome. The games room would have an enormous HDTV and every console since the NES, with lots of spare controllers and a huge library of games. There'd also be a selection of vintage (late 80s - early 90s) arcade games and (why not?) a small network of high-end gaming PCs.

The pub room would have a bar with a large selection of alcoholic beverages and a hot Swedish serving wench, along with a pool table, snooker table, table football, air hockey and a jukebox filled with awesome records.

The movie room would basically be a mini-cinema with an HD digital projector hooked up to a blu-ray and DVD player, as well as a film projector, and, of course, a large selection of films, TV series, cartoons etc. There would be comfy sofas and enough little tables for everyone to be able to put their drinks and snacks within easy reach. It would also be well-stocked with a variety of savoury snacks as well as chocolate and pick 'n' mix, along with various soft drinks and beer.

The music room would have shelves and shelves and shelves of records and CDs, all played via a top of the line stereo system with around 10-12 speakers around the room. The stereo would be connected to a computer which has specialist software which is able to separate the tracks on a piece of music, so you could have (if you want to) the vocals coming through one speaker, the lead guitar coming through another, the drums coming through another, etc. Or any mix of instruments you want coming though any speaker. It's very versatile.

The reading room would have floor-to-ceiling shelves stocked with a startling variety of books, comics and magazines. And one of those awesome ladders on rails to reach the top shelves. The chairs would all be those Victorian/Edwardian high-backed studded leather jobbies. You know the ones I mean, you see them in Sherlock Holmes films. There would also be a coffee-bar in this room with a hot Italian serving wench.

Down in the basement would be a music rehearsal space/recording studio, kitted out with various amps, guitars, drums and other instruments. The studio room would have an absurdly oversized mixing desk and an engineer on 24/7 call out, so if I'm (or anyone else is) drunk at 3am and have a "like, fucking awesome" idea for a song, he can record it.

The back yard would feature a cocktail bar (with a hot Brazillian serving wench), a couple of large barbecues, a pool and a roasting pit, in case I feel like skewering an entire hog and slow-roasting that motherfucker.

Other than that, I don't know. I haven't really thought about it.

[JasterIsFett]

your hot Italian and Brazillian serving wenches idea intrigues me...

Not the Swedish one, though? Don't you like blondes?

[DarthMaulRat]

Swedish is overrated. Go Russian. ;)

I don't know how I missed that one.

I believe Hugh Hefner has my perfect house.

I will usurp thee Hefner!

Actually, there is a small island in the Philippines called Apo island. the coral reefs around it are insanely beautiful. I would build a house at the top of its hill where the old japanese radio tower still stands. Beautiful view of the ocean in every direction. And i'd build a house just like the lookout towers forrestry rangers use to spot fires. With an open elevator and a fire pole to slide down. Plus a wrap around balcony, completely open architecture (floor to ceiling glass windows and a studio design) only the bathroom would be private. Then build a pier at the shoreline with a garage for a sea plane and a boat. (flying to Manila would take about an hour)

Property, materials to site, construction, at least 3 to 5 million give or take the bribes required (land is currently government owned). The upkeep would require getting some of the locals on the island to run supplies for me. so about 5 thousand a year.

Barring that, I've always wanted to live in Hawaii or one of the other tropical Pacific Paradises. I think a year or two there would hurt.

What are you? Straight?

[donkey]

I'd like to have a place with a lot of rooms, a work room with all my tools and maybe a tablesaw and a band saw, a music room for my records, a movie room with a big screen, big kitchen, and I've always wanted to have one of these:

but large enough for me to dive into.

I feel so stupid for not thinking of that!
Ugh I want it now

[donkey]

I've always kinda wanted to get one with a trap door in the bottom that would lead to my own batcave.

Exactly why i didn't refer to it as a "ball pit" in my original post.

[By-tor]

[donkey]

gotta make it a challenge for you somehow...

[RobinHoodDaffy]

http://goodbyemailbox.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/dipmyballsinit.jpg

I want to dip my balls in it!

[donkey]

What's really baffling is that no one has said their perfect place is someone else's crotch.

[RobinHoodDaffy]

pervert.

[donkey]

Don't even try Daffy! Everyone knows you want to get all up in my ball pit.

[dtcb]

I think you could get your balls out of that trap door if you set it up right. possibly a kind of tube with an air pump that pulled your balls and shot them back into the ball pit.



you could call it "Donkey's Balls Pit Filler!"



I'll just be over here walling in the shame corner.

[RobinHoodDaffy]

Don't even try Daffy! Everyone knows you want to get all up in my ball pit.

But I think your wife gets first dibs, I don't want sloppy seconds.

Hey! What's hapenin' bro?

In the improv biz, that is an excellent example of what we call "re-incorporation":D

[dtcb]

I'm recovering from a drinking session on Monday that ended on Tuesday at 8 a.m. Friend of mine's last day in Hong Kong.

It took two days to fully recover. Damn soju.
