We call them Queenslanders here, and they're one of my favorites types of home. https://traditionalqueenslanders.com.au/why-build-with-us/history-of-the-queenslander/ If I had endless amounts of money I would definitely buy one of the pre-war Queenslanders that are still around. You know, if I had a million dollars lying around.

Only like 3 things have ever happened in DIY so the memes get pretty stale. Plug socket overkill, insulated stairs, cut beams, missing toilet, concrete block. Missing any?

“We are like sailors who must rebuild their ship on the open sea, never able to dismantle it in dry-dock and to reconstruct it there out of the best materials. Where a beam is taken away a new one must at once be put there, and for this the rest of the ship is used as support. In this way, by using the old beams and driftwood the ship can be shaped entirely anew, but only by gradual reconstruction.” ― Otto Neurath
