Re: Architecturally Designed Home - Vic 70Sep 21, 2018 3:01 pm hi all long time between posts. been waiting for the scaffolds to come down, which happened today to share our exterior. brickworks all done, concrete floor has been grinded. plywood ceiling going up. we love the progress and very happy with the results Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ the curved brickwork just looks fantastic, the soldier bricks helps add depth, once the canopy goes up it'll help break up the facade bit more. unfortunately we do need to screen off the windows, which will happen in a couple of weeks Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ those sliding doors are 3.5m high, looks awesome from the inside and with some good curtains it'll be just as we pictured. top floor will be screened off as well.
