Update time!
For those that have been asking about the garden, this is the total aftermath of dead plants. A lot of the purple ones actually survived.
Lower spot, you can see the empty space
and the triangle area that was mostly dead and came back
Some glass in to test privacy films. Original idea was tintex glass, but looking at other houses its just too "open", most houses have the shades down all day which is ridiculous. After looking at Doug's grey tinted glass I asked what the local options were.
This is 30% copper, gives a nice contrast but looks like a money exchange place from the outside
This is 30% silver, less contrast but more natural and looks MEH from the outside, not what I would want but at least I will enjoy the view instead of the shades.
Some of the bathrooms/Patio/Front will be decked and the plan was to seal it with epoxy or something similar, with my super miss calculation of the garage tiling I ended up with a lot of extra, so what better place to use it!
Rear deck is done, I took this picture a while ago, it is finished now but I have not been to the house yet. It looks dirty because I am sealing it with mineral oil and it takes a lot.
The "flush" window rail is a success decking fits properly flush with it
Leveled the ramp to the rear, still have to add 8" of dirt and grass for final level but feels a lot more natural than steps
I did not want frames nor jambs on the doors and EZ-jamb isn't sold here plus it isn't really jambless. So, I imagined something, that HOPEFULLY will work
Doors will have a stainless pin that will act as a stopper on a piece of aluminum that will be flushed to the walls.
I'm using different profiles depending on the door
And some renders... These are totally day dreaming. Something that I would love to do but I have to see if they are even possible for me/budget.
I took the idea of Jordan's house and mutated it a bit
Half bathroom on first floor.
This next picture represents the reason why the house is on halt now. The fixture to center the valves for the shower knobs. Sometimes you have an idea in your head and you try to explain it, that doesn't work so you draw it, that doesn't work and you model it, that doesn't work and you machine it. Waiting for it.
And lastly, My most proud achievement of the month.
Render recall:
I said it would be a miracle if I could pull those lamps off. Well...
Friggin miracle! not as translucent as I would have hoped but it is magnificent, made in 1cm thick onix. It weights a TON, I will have to properly think how to attach them.
Longest post ever!
