Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Sloping & Narrow block: Modern Hamptons build - façade d 381Dec 20, 2017 6:39 pm Scaffolding came down. Tick Had a win today, managed to broker a deal/solution with my engineer and builder to remove a massive timber beam from my void. It means the void will look way bigger, and I get to keep the same ceiling height throughout the entire house. So happy. I might ask if I can keep the old beam and make something out of it! The orange beam is the one being removed.

Do you mind giving me the name of your staircase guy please. The guy I used previously has retired. Sorry mate. The guy my builder uses doesn't do private work, in fact he isn't even taking on more work at the moment. I was lucky to get him sorry I couldn't help. Sloping & Narrow block: Modern Hamptons build - façade done 385Dec 23, 2017 6:48 pm We went shopping today. Bought a few bits for the new house. Turns out a few stores have started their boxing day sales early. Bought the master bedroom bed frame (king) and a matching one for the Guest bedroom (queen size). Aussie made. And the slats were sturdy and thick which was my main requirement.

Got the Bosch washer and dryer on sale today from E&S 20% off sale (thanks Dani!) And then figured might as well get the fridge sorted while the sale was on Went for the white Mitsubishi L4 grande. We actually had to drive around to a few stores to find a white example as we wanted to work out if it would go with the kitchen. Should look ok with the white cabinets I think. Only thing is the ovens are black but I'm hoping it will still work together.

It will definitely work in with the cabinets. And don’t worry about the black appliances. I was worried myself but found plenty of examples on Pinterest which look good Re: Sloping & Narrow block: Modern Hamptons build - façade d 388Jan 10, 2018 2:55 pm Christoshizz More shopping today.

Re: Sloping & Narrow block: Modern Hamptons build - façade d 394Jan 15, 2018 4:35 pm Will you be including the wine cellar? Very impressive look there.

Re: Sloping & Narrow block: Modern Hamptons build - façade d 398Jan 19, 2018 7:59 pm Progress. Finally. Insulation installed.

Plaster starts Monday.

So exciting to get the plaster done and see the true dimensions of the rooms for the first time Great that you also put soundproof insulation everywhere.
