very cool. don't see a license, though. no open source license => not open source.
Are house designs covered by copyright?
You could always write to him and ask him to specify a licence.
Architectural blueprints have been explicitly covered by copyright in the US since 1990, but were likely implicitly covered before then.
He could always provide an open-source license before claiming that he is "open sourcing" his designs. You could always check for a license before claiming that something is open-source. Putting the onus on people after the fact to make those previous claims true doesn't make any sense.
