Talk:Split-level home

message: This is an odd section.  It lists, or has listed, split-level homes depicted in film or television.  The homes themselves are not famous.  You could probably list a great many movies that had split-level homes, it would be like listing Harold and Maude in Tudor Style.  It would be interesting to find a famous example of such a pedestrian home, or an example of a home famous for being split-level.  I can't find any.  Either way this is not a list of famous homes.

message: Why include bi-level here?  It doesn't match the intro definition, and they seem so different.  Here is a good reference to post-wwII architecture including split-levels, bi-levels etc:  [Final Historic Context and Survey of Post-World War II Residential Architecture in Boulder, Colorado]  ★NealMcB★ (talk) 16:26, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: In the North West United States (specifically the Seattle area), a split level commonly refers to a bi-level split entry house, while the house defined in the intro would be called a tri-level house.  Instead of splitting the bi-level out, I propose rewording the intro to be more inclusive. (Also, the link you linked to is dead, a static link to the same is at [Final Historic Context and Survey of Post-World War II Residential Architecture in Boulder, Colorado]).

thread_title:  Split out bi-level to separate article? 

message: This article is really confusing and I still don't really understand what a split level home is.  I thought "split level home" meant the levels (floors) in the house were split...but then the article talks about floors between levels, and then there's a picture that says from the front you can only see the first floor and the the "split level" (so a "split level" is a thing, not just a descriptor?) is only visible from the side.  Then it says the front view only shows one story, "and the two stories are in the back."  Ok, see, I was under the impression that the "looks like a one-story from the front, but if you look from the back, you'll see that it's actually a two story (because that first story splits in the back)."  But the "split level" is only visible from the side?  WHAT IS a split level?!?!?  Is it like, another floor?  How many freaking floors does this house have?  2?  3?  4?  And if a "split level" is a thing, and not just a way to describe the layout of this type of house, then please define it.  What makes a floor a floor and a "split level" a "split level"? 2602:304:AB1E:E929:C1A3:4D1D:4D71:CCDE (talk) 15:20, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

message: I am confused about how a standard split level home differs from a side split and a back split and how a split foyer differs from a split entry. I read the article in the link below (w/ its website) and I am still confused.                                                                                    https://homedecorbliss.com/types-of-split-level-homes/ Evope (talk) 01:41, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
