Chapter 138: For a Little Family
"Don't have wooden structures and styles, even though they look good for a tree farm." Kate, as the chief designer, directly ruled out heavy timber construction, "The ranch-style building is not suitable for this place, although it is free, but the large overhangs and low slope roof profiles are not refined enough. β
Qi Ping nodded straight, where did he understand so much; Since Kate said it, then nature is the truth.
"We can choose Tudor and Victorian, and they're both very good." Kate pointed to the data on the computer and explained to Qi Ping.
Tudor-style mansions are popular in old neighborhoods in the United States, and the style is characterized by impressive roof lines and half-height facades. The Tudor style introduced to the United States in the early 19th century is easily reminiscent of the medieval homes of England in Europe; There's a saying that if you live in a Tudor mansion, you might grow to love the feeling of a storybook.
The Victorian style, on the other hand, is actually somewhat similar to the Tudor style, with sloping roofs and skylights being common elements. But compared to Tudor, Victorian style borrowed more from French architecture. For example, the ornate details of the windows and door frames, paying attention to every detail is a classic practice of French style. The colourful colours and elaborate architectural details are some of the most fascinating aspects of Victorian architecture.
"I think we could consider adding a little bit of neoclassicism, because I've heard that this style comes from the classical tradition, and a lot of it is very elaborate and elaborate." Qi Ping also started the discussion, he felt that he also had some favorite styles, and he felt that some of his ideas should still have some market.
"I've thought about these things a long time ago, and I refuse your proposal!" With a wave of her small hand, Kate directly gave Qi Ping a stuffy stick, and now Kate is the chief designer, of course, thinking more than Qi Ping.
"I would add some Stilker style that emphasizes the overall ornamentality of the wall rather than the details of the doors and windows or eaves, which is part of the Gothic Revival style. And there's also the style of French villas, and I love their porches, which are one of the main styles of portico design for royal garden villas across Europe. β
Kate is full of confidence, she has been studying these for the past two days, and she is constantly pursuing more perfection; So now, there are still a lot of ideas, and they are constantly looking for a balance that can better integrate various styles perfectly.
Obviously, Kate's overall style requirements for her new home are exquisite and beautiful; Think about it, in a picturesque forest farm, on the edge of a beautiful little lake, such an exquisite villa is more suitable.
The fleshy touting and the very dog-legged echoing are also rewarded by the triumphant Kate; The overall style is decided, but this is far from enough, in fact, there are still many things that need to be done.
Style, just the beginning; For the sake of this mansion, both Kate and Qi Ping need to work harder. Naturally, there are still more designs to be implemented and studied; It's not just Qi Ping and Kate thinking at home, although they may think that their designs are beautiful and suitable, but they also need to listen to the opinions of designers and experts.
"King Kong, you have to behave well, our new home needs your hard work!"
Seeing that King Kong wanted to run, Kate hurriedly hugged the little guy and teased him; As for King Kong, now he looks like he is confused, he can't understand why the eldest brother and eldest sister have changed in the past two days, and he likes to tease him and Pooh very much, and even often says some things that King Kong's little head can't understand.
"It's a good thing that they can make more money, and it's okay to have less, and I believe that our home will be incredibly beautiful and comfortable. I can't wait, Kate. You need to make a decision, you need to decide the style of the house, the structure. We need to get busy, and I know that we may not be able to move to a new home before we get married, but I still hope that we can build our new home sooner and belong to our new home. β
"I think if we hurry, maybe our wedding can take place in our new home. There are still ten months left, and I believe it will be too late; We all need to hurry up so that we can make sure we make it in time for our wedding. β
Kate thought about it, there were still ten months left, and it was too late; It's just that you really need to hurry, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to move into a new home before the wedding, but at the time of the wedding, maybe the new home has been completed, then the wedding can also be considered to be held there.
"I'm going to take these guys to Los Angeles tomorrow and hope that this time the ad shoot will go well. I don't think there's a need to worry too much, they all love to be lively and express themselves in front of the camera. β
As soon as he was lying on the couch, Pooh, the lazy fellow, climbed up; I have nothing to say, I met such a lazy brother. Fortunately, Pooh weighs only more than sixty pounds now, otherwise this guy really can't stand it lying on his body; Give it a good tickle, and expect this lazy guy to receive more ads.
"I don't think there's anything to worry about, if it weren't for the fact that you care so much about them, I think maybe they'd have become superstars in the advertising world. I support your decision, and I'm proud of you; We'll take some ads, but that needs to take into account how they feel. We need more money now, but we can't be wronged by the lovely Pooh and King Kong. β
Kate is proud, just look at what her fiancΓ© has done.
So many reports were delivered, but they didn't care much at all; Because Qi Ping cares about his family very much, he will not be wronged or treat his family badly.
It's true that there is a lack of money now, but it can't be made to become a tool for collecting money; Enjoying life is the most important thing, and watching King Kong grow and play happily in the forest farm is the greatest gratification for Qi Ping and Kate.
Kate is in charge of the design of the new home, so Qi Ping and King Kong, Pooh, and even Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai are responsible for supporting the family. It is still necessary to work hard to make a little more money, so as to ensure that the design of the new home is completed and started as soon as possible.
There is no doubt that this will definitely cost a lot of money according to the current design style and the luxury and comfort that Qi Ping pursues; So now, we still need to try to make a little more money, but we can't just use the fruits of the forest farm to build a house.
"You're thinking about raising a family now, just like me. The money from the forest farm is used to develop the business; You can take out some of the money to enjoy life, but only a small part of it. Let these little brothers sit in a row, and the eldest brother Qi Ping will naturally start to give them an ideological education lesson.
"You are also part of the family, and you all need to work hard for us to live a comfortable life. If you can make more money and come back, I won't put a dime into the forest farm, and the money you earn will be spent on our family expenses, how comfortable and happy you are. β
They all agreed, and they didn't seem to resist anyway; In that case, of course, Qi Ping thought that they were just saying yes. Not to mention, since everyone has reached an agreement on such a big event, of course it is a good thing.
In the end, we all hope that this small family can be better, and it is natural for everyone to work together to run this small family.
Work together to make this little family more beautiful!
Zippin and Kate are confident, while King Kong and Pooh are them; Maybe it's still a little ignorant, but it doesn't matter, it's enough to follow the eldest brother, eat and drink spicy, and live a delicious and beautiful life!
