Dem Bones Dem Bones


The ground floor framing is nearly complete. We can now walk around and explain to the kids which room is which. The top picture is of the back corner of the house. The alfresco area will fill in the corner.



The second photo is of the back of the house. There will be a sliding glass door out to the alfresco and a picture window in the kitchen area. Its a bit hard to see the picture window.


You can get an idea of the articulation we had to put into the side facing the street so we could pass the estate guidelines. This was one of the reasons we couldn't go to a volume builder.






This is from inside the house looking out the back. The picture window is clearly visible.




Patrick is busy checking out the kitchen as usual. Nope - no luck, no food there yet. The opening on the left is for the walk in pantry.



Looking down through the front door. The garage is on the left and the multipurpose room on the right. The multipurpose room will become the kids playroom/rumpus room.



Some timber remaining to finish off the ground floor is left on site.


Here's another picture from inside showing the lounge area. Two big windows in this room should make it a nice and light area.


Things are progressing well and the frame looks quite well constructed. I can't see any obvious problems to my untrained eye.

This week will probably see the ground floor finished and perhaps a start on the upper floor.
