The homosexuals in >>57289109 have me curious what the ideal materials for a house would be. If money had no factor into your decision what are you building with and why. Uneducated responses welcome. I love the poorly educated.

Obvious answer. Slab on grade, thick walls of concrete formed with ICF (insulated concrete forms). Entire structure oriented south-south east with a good roof overhang to prevent summer sun penetration.

North half of the home bermed to the windows, with geo-piping for cooling and if possible heating as well.

Exterior is granite masonry, baths/showers in quartzite slabs, cielings in cedar, floors are polished concrete etc.

not really picrel material wise, but I could be off grid if I wanted to.

I'd build a wooden insulated modern house like a normal person. Fuck off with your concrete commie block or 14th century ruins. I want a comfy cabin on my own block. If a 1 in 100 year storm happens and destroys it, money isn't a factor so I'll build another, probably somewhere not ravaged by nature.

Concrete because I like the brutalist look but boston cherry for the warm interiors. Black and white marble for bathrooms and stainless steel kitchen for the professional and clean look.

Maybe for a year, then its scratched to shit and marred all over.

You want porcelain slabs in your bathrooms and natural quartzite in your bathrooms.

My bathroom is already mostly marble and I'm happy with it except for the color as it is some brownish hue to it which is why I want it that way. The othe thing I would do is get rid of as many seams as possible. Anything that can be done from a single chunk of marble I'd do that way.

I already work in a full stainless steel kitchen and I want nothing to do with a normal kitchen anymore. Not only the scratching doesn't bother me but it's mostly from improperly using the surfaces and cleaning methods anyways.

>>57294636
This actually looks good I wouldn't mind this either. Maybe in the kitchen island to contrast with the sterile look of the rest of the kitchen.

>brownish
Yeah most of the white marble has a lot of iron inside it, so that process of rusting internally will eventually brown it. I used to use some crazy volume peroxide to knock it back but not really available to me anymore. Eitherway, marginal difference. Quartzite is a whole other beast, some varieties have nearly zero porosity - a tiny run of sealer every few years and you literally can't damage the stuff.

>Stainless
I get why you'd like it, my clients who cook a ton or have chefs always keep a full stainless prep kitchen behind their stone "show" and daily use kitchen. As a main kitchen it's a bit heavy for me aesthetically and it always gets ruined. There are guys who can bring it back to brand new every few years though.

>my recommendation
For someone like you I'd say your ideal bathroom material is a honed dolomitic stone called "superwhite" It has the appearance of marble along with some sensitivity to acid (since it is a calcite/magnesium hybrid) but way way harder and structurally sound, and much less porous. Going with polished isnt great since it will etch/dull unlike quartzite or granite, but still lightyears ahead of a black/white marble.

its tricky because autists like me are really into the craft but the sales people are dicks and just lie but don't take responsibility. Local shop was selling the above as natural quartzite until I called them out on it. They relabelled it to dolomitic marble. It's a non silicate stone so no, not quartzite or even granite, just a nice combo of minerals that happened to mix in a mountain in italy, there are other varieties of course.

Luxury things I would want that you don't get in a 800k house in the US:

1. Good heat and sound isolation both in terms of walls and windows.
2. Copper pipes, not plastic.
3. Good wiring with channels that make it possible to swap it out.
4. Actually level floors that don't creak.
5. Solid foundation.
6. 5-20 self-cleaning fleshlights built into the wall of every room.
7. Generator / solar / heated driveway
8. Car lift.

But seriously I have stopped dreaming of a nice house. As I said, it's 800-1200k for a McMansion in flyover that's "ONLY" 30 minutes from downtown.

I guess I will just stick to playing the Witcher 3 intro scene with the mountain pass overlook with the castle.

Two things here - one is that it has to be absolutely expertly designed not to smoke into the room. And two, you pretty much need to own a forest for it to have the full effect.

>not to smoke into the room
You're not really "wrong" but the issue is more that these stoves work well with a good air supply, but, a well designed home is not going to feed this type of stove well without it's own air supply since (good) new homes are pretty air tight.
>need a forest
these dont use logs, they use faggots (bundles of sticks) since their surface area is bigger and they burn quicker and hotter - so you are just pruning live coposing trees rather than actually cutting a forest down. A single burn every day is pretty good at loading the thermal mass up and letting it radiate all day.
>hot hot fires
The twig fires + a good air supply means super hot fire that burns all the junk without depositing it in the fireplace (creosotes or wtv). You'd burn a lot more logs inefficiently in a typical wood burning stove vs. a masonry stove and never have to kill a tree on your property, you would still need enough to supply twigs though.

Usually you have a shut off valve, I do wonder if you can automate it with vacuum from the suction created from the heat leaving the top.

So you would burn faggots in that oven then
