couple of questions about enclosures.

I think of bringing a Veiled Chameleon.
I think that ill build her an enclousre with my dad.
It will be 150cm high and with 60cm hight and width.
It will be too big?
Can i put there 2 chameleons? male and a female?
Thank you.
I forgat to say that i have 2 leopard geckos for a year, so food for a chamelon wont be a problem for me.

that cage size will be sufficient for 1 adult male veiled chameleon.
It's not too big at all. In fact, I used that somewhat similar measurement for mine.
don't cage more than 1 veiled cham in a cage.
Babies can live together for short while. Usually after 2.5 months old, they should be caged individually.

Best not to put any substrate at all for easier maintenance.
Substrate harbors bacteria growth and possible lethal impaction to your chameleon. Crickets can hide by burrowing inside the substrate as well.
