Mirror Reverse
As demonstrated in the "flip" feature on the drawings shown for each
Sun Plan, wouldn't it be nice if the front porch was on the east rather than the
west? Or maybe the light from the sunset
suits the family's sleeping schedule and bedroom location better than light from
the sunrise. Whatever the reason (and
there are hundreds!) for flipping a house along the north-south axis, Sun Plans'
Mirror Reversing can transform a house design with this service available for
Construction Prints and CAD Files.
With Mirror Reverse, all of the drawings in each set of reversed Construction
Prints will be "right reading".
Sun Plans does not simply flip over the Construction Prints and make copies.
And unlike the "flip" feature on each
house plan web page, in Construction Prints and CAD Files, the numbers and
letters will be readable.
Reversing mirrors a plan along the north-south axis of the house. In
rectangular plans designed with one long wall designed to face south, the south
and north sides still face the same compass direction, but the east and west
are reversed. In angled plans designed to sit at a 45 degree angle to south and
with two south-facing sides—southeast and southwest—the mirror line is from
the northern-most corner to the southern-most corner which is a diagonal line
across the house. What was the northwest wall would then become the northeast
wall, and what was the southwest wall would then become the southeast wall.
Prices start at $200.
And yes, a design professional can also do the reversing with the CAD Files.
Ask their preference prior to placing the order.
Mirror Reverse Drawings are not available for Study Plans and Review Sets.
