Finish this House Challenge!

No need to worry- rules aren’t too important :slight_smile:

I got an extra room by building up to a cave. I also similarly pushed the stairway landing outside the structure using a setback in the rock wall to encompass the opening. and added a glass block feature to cap the intrusion the stairway makes into the first floor roof for headroom. Will these touches also be allowed?

I am treating the full cave as outdoor space and am not sure how or if I will finish off the cave, it is a matter of how much more time I can spend on this model.

Note that I added a flat sheet with water texture to the stairwell rock wall, the creek that drains it passes under the house and is revealed through a series of grates in the floor, with glass panels so you don’t lose small things you might chance to drop.

Question: are you guys going to comment on the entries? There should be an "official"response to them, don’t you think?

Yep! We are going through all of the entires every Friday during out Live Stream!

The part over the stair is technically roof, and the rock would be the lot, the one thing I can see that might be an issue is the small stack of glass block I used to fill the gap to the rock on one side of the stairwell. If that is pushing the rules, I can just fill in with the rock, I’d like to know ahead of time so I have a chance to fix that if necessary. It could stand some more furniture, like dressers and I’d like to find a royalty free picture of a waterfall to paste onto my rockface so it looks nice, but I think I’m going to call it done and work on some nice views and what not. Edit, I tried removing this and reposting it as a comment under my first post asking if I was within the rules on a couple of choices. It ended up back down here by itself anyhow, ahh, I see, it is under my original post AND down here, curious)

Here is My House
