This is a really good idea... are the first two the OG Dreamworld House and the first 7-era House?

it's the OG Dreamworld house in its final state, the 7 house in Manly, the 7 house at Sydney Olympic Park and the new Dreamworld house

Thanks, I did think I recognised the long, central part of the OG structure which I feel like was left over from the BB03 split House?
But I didn't recognise the rounded triangle thing in the back yard. I guess I don't remember the 2014 House very well, and honestly who could blame me. 
Anyway it's exciting that the exhibition centre is roughly the same size as the OG House... I wonder how much of the space they're actually making use of, though?

Which part?
The long central part you’re referring to had always been there since S1. Back then it was used for natural light and ventilation. The common central area then had proper ceilings installed starting with S3 and the exterior view of it was just masked with facades in later seasons. I would assume it took more of a role of being a loft for production equipment as the shows technology was improved.Thanks, I did think I recognised the long, central part of the OG structure which I feel like was left over from the BB03 split House?
The triangular bit was the pool. Since they had to actually construct an in-ground pool they tended to stay across multiple seasons. The current BB7 stream is still using the same pool built for BB5, for example.
From the obscured house plans posted today my first assumption is that the entry/exit to the house will be from the yard again. I can assume kitchen and general living space in the southern section of the exhibition centre with bedrooms and such in the north section. I don’t see room for a public eviction stage in the same building.

Surely we'll be seeing Dreamworld posting something about live show tickets soon. IIRC, when buying tickets to the old amphitheatre, they'd show you the layout and you would select between 3 sections, Gold, Silver and (I think...) Grass.
Hopefully we see something similar, I guess it depends on how big of an audience they're planning to have.

I was at the cheap seats taping today and Mel Tracina mentioned a live stream of the house being built streaming on BBAU’s Tik Tok but it’s not up. Maybe going live tonight?
Also Mel will be a great host. She is very funny

I know it’s still early stages of the build but the bottom camera looks to be the main living area and quite open plan
Still no sign of camera runs

Ask in the stream if they have them
Does anyone else find it a little crazy that they’re about 3 weeks away from launching the house at Ten’s Upfronts and the house still looks like that…
Also, a clean screenshot:

Assume cam 2 is bathroom?
Do we know that this is actually from today or could it be days or weeks old? Yes I know the text on the stream says it is today.

I would say it’s a prerecorded stream.
Also there was never any confirm that for upfronts that the house would be fully complete by then. In saying that they have done a bit since the last week. It’s achievable

Yep and looks like that’s a sauna sitting there in the middle to be installed.
Oh I definitely considered that, too - and you’re right, there’s absolutely no way to know that this wasn’t recorded weeks ago.
The three cams are definitely in sync with each other though (I momentarily thought they could be three different recordings).
It does look like evening…but at the same time, there likely isn’t going to be much natural light in the house (ala, 2014) given it’s being built within the centre.
