Holes cut in the brick base for the cupboards.The light shining through is a special cupboard for the gas tank. There is a steel door on the outside. You drive up with you car with a new gas tank and push it in through from outside. Saves carrying the heavy tank all the way round the back to the kitchen.
Lacking any better ideas, the fronts were tiled with leftovers from one of the bathrooms.

brick formwork for ground beamsInstead of using expensive wooden shuttering, the formwork for the beams is built at ground level with the Thai 'cinder' blocks. These are extremely cheap, and they stay in place afterwards thus adding even more strength.

grease trap finished'Grey water' - that's the stuff from kitchen sinks, washbasins, washing machines and showers - generally doesn't contain contain solids that need to be bacterially decomposed, and is already largely disinfected by the additives in soaps and detergents. These detergents float on water and can be separated in a grease trap before the water is led away to leach. Keeping the grey water separate from sewage also helps prevent the bacteriological process in the septic tank from getting over-diluted. jazzman (3 votes)

Tuscan PillarsThe drain pipes were carefully lifted and let down over the rebar and filled with concrete. If you wanted to save a lot of time and money and did't mind having round columns everywhere instead of square section ones, you could make them all this way. It would be a very strong construction, and give rise to some interesting comments about your architecture. We will be building our hexagonal sala (gazeebo) this way

Living RoomSeen from the kitchen. For a small house, the living room is deceptively spacious. The whole floor space is usable, no wasted nooks and crannies - a result of cunning interior design.jazzman (3 votes)

'Nok' stopThese plastic strips fit under the tiles between the tiles and the eaves board (fascia). Stops birds getting into the roof and nesting. 60cm long, about 7 baht each. (packets of 10). Did YOU remember to install them? They come with profiles to match most tiles and corrugated tin. They also stop mice. Mice like to gnaw away at plasterboard (sheetrock)...
