It's nice! I think it will go well with your furniture. You don't want it to dark cause you already have darkish carpet. Our kitchen cabinetry is Lexicon quarter. We chose Snowy Mountains but hope it isn't too pink under warm lights..

Yeah true. We chose our furniture to be dark grey to contrast against the white walls and brown tones.

I haven't seen Lexicon Quarter cabinet walls so it should look interesting. We chose Polar white in silk for out kitchen cabinets and it looks fantastic as its a high contrast white colour.

Update:
Bad news: our PCI date has now moved to Wed next week as not all the works have been completed due to heavy rainfall this past few weeks. Let's hope the extra days M can do a proper job....

God news: we have a garage door!

Still so very very close, better done right! I don't think we are going to be 100% done by PCI but they haven't mentioned moving it. I'll be pi55ed if they try as it will take about 2 weeks to get a suitable time with inspector again!!!

Since no one else has any updates, I will provide some entertainment.....

Carpets are (um mostly) installed. What is it with M tradies and not ordering enough materials??? Our sitting room has no carpets bc they ran out and have to come back again to complete it....geez, the measuring department needs to purchase a calculator? Yikes!

Unfinished:

Ran out of carpets or did they install grass in my sitting room

Some more activities onsite:

1. Our Poliform wardrobe got delivered

2. A big digger is digging a big hole in the front and ready for the 10,000l rainwater tank. Yes it's massive!

And the hole to dig up the front yard too!

I know hey, damn Basix crap. It's a waste of money as I'm gonna turn it off anyways. Don't want the dirty water to stain my toilets and washing machine.

Orph, the garage door goes really nicely with the gutter and rendered column/pillar - and contrasts perfectly with the bricks. I think you have made good colour choices.

Orph, great job with the choice of carpet and color. Looks sweet along with the stairs and door!
As for using the tradies as the people who let you in... do they get into trouble for allowing you onsite?

Nah the tradies are pretty nice and have never objected me from going inside and taking a peek. My SM acknowledges this as well and hasn't raised any concerns with me.
