The '''Big Brother House''' is where the contestants stay during their time on the show.
==Big Brother Canada==
 
===Original House===
 
The original house was used only for season one. The house was mostily on 1 floor with the HoH room and the front door being upstairs. The house is quite unique for a Big Brother house in that the garden is inside with lights being used to simulate day and night. The only outdoor area is a small hot tub area.

This house also has more rooms on the second story (with the main bedroom, bathroom and HoH room being upstairs). This house also has a small room for twists (in season 2, this was the War Room. In season 3, this was the Vault. In season 4, this was the High Rollers Room. In season 5, this was the Bridge). The room is also used for the HoH to make nominations.

The house in Season 2 was a result of a house upgrade happened because the house was used as the Academy in ''Pinoy Dream Academy''. They extended the house up to another lot beside it to give space for the classrooms used in the show. As a result, the Pinoy Big Brother house became larger than ever which was evident in Season 2 as it added a Gym area, a large bathroom area, a secret room, a prayer room and an activity area where the housemates perform their tasks and challenges. Season 2 also introduced the Eviction Hall used in PDA as their Concert hall. The Eviction Hall is where the evictions took place rather than infront of the facade used in the previous three seasons.

=== Celebrity Edition 2 - Opulent Mansion===
 
For the second celebrity edition, they used the same floorplan of Season 2 but with some modifications. The hallway diminished in length and the living area became a bit smaller. while the Gym area can now be found outside the garden. The concept of the house was opulence in contrast to Celebrity Edition 1's back to basic. They also added a Jail cell also called punishment room while they removed the prayer room.
 
 
=== Teen Edition Plus - Modern Moroccan ===
 
For second teen season, the house used the modified Season 2 floorplan used in Celebriy Edition 2, but again with some modifications. The swimming pool grew in size and is now a large rectangular, olympic-like pool that almost dominated the whole garden. The garden was now tiled. An adjacent area called Plus Base was also introduced where in the Guardians would live. The Activity Area was moved inside the Eviction Hall and in result, they brought back the evictions infront of the facade of the house. The front doors were brought back again inside the house instead of being in the garden.

The third season of the Civilian series introduced a new twist called Double Up and as part of the twist. The house is now divided into two equal sized houses, both furnished and connected only via the confession room and the storage room. Both houses were inspired by the artworks of two artists.

=== Unlimited - House of the Social Classes (Slum/Industrial/Luxury)===
 
The house used the Double up floorplan but with modifications. The house was divided into four areas. The slums, the industrial house and the luxury house. The Industrial House didn't have an outdoor area and was completely blocked from the sunlight. While the Luxury house was connected to the Pool in which they first called as the Resort used when the housemates get a reward. It later became part of the luxury house. The slums was located where the original location of the activity area can be found. In Double Up it was used as House B's outdoor area. The Luxury and Industrial houses were connected via secret hallway.
 
 
The concept of the houses were about the different rankings of social status by the Filipinos, mainly the Upper Class people, the middle class people and the people below the poverty line.

PBB HOUSE facade

Pinoy Big Brother 7's live premiere in front of the Pinoy Big Brother House

"It's a house like no other where cameras follow your every move and microphones capture your every word. This is the Big Brother House."— Big Brother U.S. (franchise)

The Big Brother House is where the contestants stay during their time on the show.

It functions as a real and livable home but is surrounded with several cameras, microphones and two way mirrors throughout the house. Although the interiors of the house are made to look like a house, it's actually located inside a studio where the production crew record everything through the two-way mirrors within a dark camera alley surrounding the house. Infrared cameras are also installed throughout the house which enables to capture the house while in complete darkness.

The house has the amenities of a typical house. It typically has two to three bedrooms, a living area, a kitchen and dining area, a bathroom and toilet, a storage room, a backyard garden and a swimming pool. It has a special private room called Diary Room also called as Confession Room where the contestants voice out their feelings, give votes and usual talk with Big Brother. Some series like Big Brother Australia, Big Brother Germany and Pinoy Big Brother, there's an Activity Area/Arena where competitions and some tasks take place. In some franchises like Big Brother U.S. (franchise) and Big Brother Canada, there's a lavish room called Head of Household bedroom with a private bathroom and a spy viewing access to certain areas of the house.

Each season, the house is renovated with a particular theme, usually being connected to the season's main twist. Some seasons may feature various themed houses ranging from an empty house to a two-neighboring houses depending on the twist.

2018 Rebranding House Changes

Along with the replacement of the Big Brother official logo with the 2018 rebrand logo, Endemol Shine also implemented technical changes into the house layout by lessening the use of one-way mirrors in the Big Brother House. The first seasons worldwide to adopt these new changes are:

  • Celebrity Big Brother 22 (UK) is the first season to have a house without any cameramen but instead have robotic cameras as their replacement in the camera runs.
  • Pinoy Big Brother 8 is the first Big Brother season to completely remove the inner camera runs and one-way mirrors in the house layout, making it solely dependent on AI cameras scattered throughout the house.
  • Big Brother Poland 6 is the first Big Brother season to have a house set in a real house instead of the usual customized "studio set" house.

Trivia

  • The first ever Big Brother house is found in the Netherlands although it has been torn down already.
  • Big Brother Australia and Pinoy Big Brother has been using the same house location since their first seasons although extensions had been made throughout the years.
    • In late 2019, the Big Brother Australia House was burned down, forcing the production to build a new house for the 12th Season.
  • Pinoy Big Brother House has a facade that can be seen across the street when people pass by. Many super fans have taken photos in front of the infamous house.
  • Big Brother U.S. House is the first Big Brother house to feature a complete two-story house.
