18 Months in 35 Minutes, Couple builds a dream home ..

A long time has passed since my fiancee and I started working on our future home project so after year and a half, I think it's time to make a video of all the work we have done so far. In this 35 minutes video you can see all the steps from marking the outlines of the house, up to the day the house was finally water tight. You can also expect some new frames.:) For more detailed videos please check out parts 1-12 which go more in depth and have more detailed subtitles explaining all the steps.
It took us a lot more time to get here than anticipated , mostly due to other projects I had to work on, but hopefully things will go on easier from now on. At least we wont cook under the sun and freeze during winter:) House building system we used is a traditionally used one here in continental Croatia. I hope you will find future videos as interesting as ones so far and hopefully another longer half an hour video will drop in a year or so..
Thank you very much for watching! If you liked this video, don't forget to press that thumb up icon and subscribe for more! :D

That Foundation is built more watertight than an transoceanic ship! Wow.

[@jamespayne8781]

That looks like a very substantial house. Should be no problem holding off the zombies.

[@LyricsStudioo]

In Europe, most houses are built this way to be more comfortable and more durable against storms or natural disasters.

[@orion7326]

This is how all houses should be, unlike those American tinder boxes

[@chehsin]

that babe builder is a real treat!

[@AF-O6]

I was hooked as soon as I saw you using seismic testing for your foundation. Besides, I really love your country and its people...every time I visit I want to stay! This level of work ethic and craftsmanship is one reason.

[@rickeverett3304]

In the US, builders are still building huge stick built with a low consideration for passive energy in the design, we call them McMansions after MacDolands clone designs. Your Architect seems to be very thorough and your build team very accomplished. I hope this stands as inspiration in the US to build smarter. Truly lovely to watch.

[@lignumchannel]

Thank you so very much! Even more so because my fiancee and me did most of the work and I designed the house:)

[@corkjv]

How does one remodel?

[@Jaggylion]

I, honestly, look forward to each update video for your home. This build is such an inspiration. Great work, guys !! 👍💯

[@lignumchannel]

More to come! Hopefully soon hehe.. :) Thank you for following the project.

[@Jaggylion]

@@lignumchannel Eagerly awaiting. 😁

[@RaphaelBrandaoS]

Not only outstanding construction work but video editing skills 10/10. Loved the edit!

[@bobbonham4823]

That is one very beautiful house. I look forward to the rest of the finishing and all of your other videos. Thanks for letting me follow a long.

[@lignumchannel]

So nice of you:) Thank you

[@javenho3608]

Great work guys! I have been watching all the videos for this series and your workmanship is super impressive. Looks like the house can withstand the most extreme weather / calamities and stand strong for a thousand years !

[@gerritboonen15]

Fantastisch, mooi, en knap bedacht. Petje af voor de architect, aannemers, werknemers en allen die hier aan hebben deelgenomen.👍🏻

[@Sophia-uc9qh]

Just wanted to say what an amazing job you guys did! So professional and organised! Super impressive, not a job site in the UK because all of the construction work was done in such an amazing manner. The future proofing and insulation is brilliant! Job well done! 🎉

[@rubenclaros4912]

Absolutely beautiful, compact and sturdy. This house will last a lifetime.

[@facusantillan4928]

what a beautiful house, love the glass and wood mix

[@lonniei1606]

This is a really genuine, honest and quality build. Great job.

[@EZ-lj3hv]

TOP notch job. A level of construction/isolation techniques I have never seen before. Irish/British builders can hang their boots. Impressive.

[@maierhof]

Absolute Masterpiece. Thank you for sharing so much of your life. That summary time lapse editing to such beautiful music... Loved seeing your wife getting in there everyday too. This was exactly what I needed tonight. Thank you.

[@lignumchannel]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you very much for watching. Yes, somehow it feels like four seasons fit perfectly with this build, ups and downs ..

[@shinybaldy]

Thank you for being so generous with your project and sharing this satisfying Timelapse

[@lignumchannel]

Glad you enjoy it! Thank you for watching!:)

[@jamesmorrissey167]

Extreme quality work! No damp walls for sure!

[@dorotheaisserstedt9238]

Habe ich noch nie gesehen : Mauern mit Kleber, anstelle von Mörtel. Der Hausentwurf selbst gefällt mir auf den ersten Blick recht gut.

[@Laurence171189]

What a wonderfull construction and….. what a music ♥️ one of my favorite. Great job and i can’t wait for the next episode 🤩 xx from 🇧🇪

[@xzytqweo3538]

Lignum: the very hard heavy wood of any of several tropical American guaiacums. (Webster Dictionary) In other words the very "soul" of the tree. And I know your home will have many more wooden elements as you continue to build. Your talents are endless as is your imagination. Thank you for creating part 1 time lapse video of your progress. I am sure I speak for everyone in saying we are looking forward to the next video. May you have a great Christmas and Happy New Year. Continue to be safe in all your work you do.

[@JosesRadley]

Fantastic! Worth watching, one thing my curiosity drives my attention with is electrical, plumbing and if there is hvac layout too. I hope there's a second video for these disciplines. Overall Great Job!

[@Hlutea-Hmar]

most detailed ground floor build I have seen👍🏼

[@FromTheHeartWoodMK]

I can't believe it's been 18 months already! I remember each step in detail, so nice to have a recap though! Keep up the great work as always, can't wait to see it all completed and furnished, it's going to be amazing and you both will be very happy with all the work you've put in!

[@lignumchannel]

Yes I can't believe either.. I just know when I started, I had zero grays, and now my beard is full of them..:) But as you say, hopefully it will all be worth it. Ps. We finished the violin design, I'l be in touch in a few days. Happy new 2023, I wish you all the best!

[@FromTheHeartWoodMK]

@@lignumchannel looking forward to it! Happy new year to you as well!

[@MrHolzwood]

Ovo je fenomenalno kako je konstrukcijski i završno urađeno,a još i kvalitet majstora,koji se vidi na kilometar...dali ste primer ovde na balkanu kako treba pravilno graditi,a ove na drugim kontinentima koji rade suvu gradnju,e njima ste primer,recimo kuće iz snova.Sve najbolje u daljoj izgradnji,voleli bismo da vidimo i enterijer kako ćete da uredite,jer džaba smo sve ovo gledali,ako ne vidimo kraj.Pozdrav.

[@lignumchannel]

Hvala puno na lijepom komentaru! Plan je snimati i dalje svaku pojedinu prostoriju dok kuća nije gotova., a to bi moglo potrajati.. :)

[@danielforster6438]

这座房子的施工细节非常精湛，防水、保温、抗震都非常出色，当然我相信造价也很昂贵😂 唯一的缺陷可能是外观不太出色，坡屋面朝向入口，可能造成视觉的压迫感😂

[@Thomas287]

Simply beautiful. And great choice of music.

[@scotthutson736]

Once again, I have to say this is stunning work. Looks like you will be able to heat that home with a couple 100 watt incandescent lights. 🙂

[@lignumchannel]

:) I wish you were right hehe.. I was running a few tests during the last couple of weeks. I tried a 2kw radiator over night during -3° and it got it up to 10° when I came in the morning. Also on a sunny day it got the temperature up to 12° while it was around 0° outside without any additional heating. I should leave the heater on for a week or so to get better results because all the walls are still cold and have a lot of mass that soaks up the energy. All in all, it looks promising:)

[@jeffreyknotts4148]

I have never seen so much concrete, masonry, and steel used in just the skeleton and exterior skin of a home. Wow!

[@evan3scent]

It's perfect, you haven't missed a detail, I'm jealous

[@AndreaArzensek]

Fantastic work guys! I can only imagine the quantity of work required before and during the building of this beautiful house. PS I find classical music combined with time lapse of crane opening oddly satisfying. Best regards from Fažana 😊

[@CrankyPantss]

It’s looking more beautiful with each video. Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@lignumchannel]

Thank you very much. Always glad to see you here:)

[@Jeunarip]

This is an example of a very tough build! I guess this can withstand an 8-10 magnitude earthquake 💪 The foundation to roof and the insulation are damn crazy! I wish I can execute this king of construction in our county!

[@lignumchannel]

Glad you think so! We had a couple of strong earthquakes a few years ago and I sure hope it wont mind a bit of shaking..

Fantastic review of the build so far. Wonderful way to end the year. I look forward to the new year knowing (at least hopeful) for continuing videos in this series. Will we see custom cabinets and furniture? Maybe a custom chandelier build? Patio and deck? The future should hold wonderful surprises. 🙂 BTW, I'm definitely hiring your foreman if I ever build a house.

[@lignumchannel]

:) I will tell her hehe.. Yes I plan to film all the work inside the house.. Furniture, each room will have its differences but hopefully everything will fit together as we imagined.. I know for sure people will love it or hate it, nothing in between.

well its a well built home, and a beautiful home as well, I hope it dont end up like a lot of homes on these youtube videos of abandon homes,because the home owner went overboard on unnessary expenses and later find out they cant afford it and end up moving away and leaving it behind, after the bank takes over. hope this is a cash project and I do wish them well, I will be keeping up with the building and the finishing of it.

We use similar building techniques in Cyprus part of the EU, the only difference here they pour all the concrete beams/columns/slabs, then fill in with brick work, your building everything seems to be tied together when you put the bricks first then concrete forms, kinda seems better your way.

30 plus years in concrete and I have to say this build may be the strongest foundation and walls I have ever seen.... I have seen skyscrapers with less steel in the pillars, walls and columns. just kidding but nice work.... not cheap at all.
