    Above 1200 Sq/FT The Lab [Latvia]

    There was this old birch tree right in front of the lab, leaning towards to the building. Every time I looked at it, I got this uneasy feeling, like it was just waiting for the perfect moment to crash down. So, I decided to do the responsible thing and asked the municipality for permission to...

    Progress update: Once I got all the trash cleared out, I took some time to walk through the spaces and envision how I want to set them up. Decided to widen some doors and create a few new openings to make it all flow better.

    The building is almost 100 years old and is part of bigger complex that was built for the Red Cross. Last 20 years it was abandoned and now I aim to return it to it's previous glory :)

    New week, more progress on the garage! 🚧 We’re putting in new walls, and even though I was seriously tempted to go big with some huge windows facing the forest, I decided to keep it classic with the original size windows. Gotta stay true to the building’s roots! Stay tuned for more updates as we...

    The back wall of the garage, facing the forest, was looking pretty rough, and I wasn't sure about the foundation underneath. So, I took the wall out, and good news—the foundation is solid! The new wall is going in soon. I have to admit, once the wall was out, I was tempted to put in a big glass...

    Some landscaping have been done around the garage, and the transformation is really starting to take shape! With the area cleared and spruced up, we now have so much more light, making everything look even better.

    I've been quite busy lately, which has kept me from posting updates, but I promise to share more about the progress with the garage. I've been hard at work removing trash and unnecessary items from the building, and now I have so much more space to imagine what this place could become one day...

    Thanks! Over the next couple of weeks I will start with getting rid of unwanted junk. The roof structure is ok and metal sheets are ok as well, but it is an old one and not built to today's standard. So I wanna add roof membrane and replace metal panels as well. Gonna start only with...

    Thanks! It has a soul indeed. That' s why I stopped searching for a garage after I went there for the first time. It is just perfect for me. Didn't want to build new facility either. It is not that all back wall that is bad. It is about 5 meters [16 feet] where the fundament is bad and wall is...

    Lada Niva is not bad - short chassis, light.. Besides I own old Land Cruiser for weekend trips, dirt roads and some light offroading. So, still not interested in soviet rides.

    It is Moskvitch 2140 I am not a fan of soviet cars, so it is pretty useless to me, but I think it will be fun project to get it running at least.
