Re: Getting a house built

Pop B Pete and Rob are correct about most standard builders not having a design already on the books to suit a VERY LARGE arcade room. So yes, u would have to search high and low to find one that does have the biggest of biggest family/rumpus rooms to support the pinball machines.  *%*  When u find one Pete, get the building company to rename it "Pinball Design House 101". Then the rest of us can use it for our next house designs too !  ^^^

I would stick with a standard design and stretch a room, or add a massive room to that design. Because these guys have built these houses hundreds of times, they can get the costings down and build time down as well. Anything designed as a one off by a architect can be very expensive cause architects dont like to design standard houses and put their name too it if its a bit plain. The more the roof lines change, the more the price goes up etc.
Either way Pete,if u do find a great design with a kick ass arcade room designed into it, it would be great to see the design on here for all us space ravaged hobbyists.  ^^^
God luck with your house build Pete, and hope all your family has lots of fun with finding the right house.
