Well done. Cheers. It was a really big effort. We did most of the work ourselves, getting in specialist trades for things like plastering, tiling and structural building work. My father is a retired plumber and I started my career as an electrician so those bases were covered. Trying not to sound arrogant, but I am a perfectionist and I don't really trust other people to do things the way I want them done, so I research how to do it then do it myself. Probably takes 5 times longer but I get there in the end. My wife studied interior architecture at uni so she was the lead on most of the interior selections. I think we probably saved about $50,000 - $100,000 compared to getting an architect or designer in and then having all of the work done under a building contract. Probably could have done it 1 year quicker, but I'm not bothered. Re: Renovating our 1960's modernist home [project thread] 12Feb 23, 2016 4:31 pm an amazing result for a huge project!

Seriously and I could vouch for your perfecionism just looking at nice job you did documenting the whole process. This is a good piece of content. I know that'd be a clilche, but having this sort of need of documentation and confidence in one's own work could be a good starting-point for starting a blog. But I got some questions - I am not an expert in architecture styles, but those mirrors in the bathroom and those tiles in the kitches depicting come cubicles aren't of the same sort of tyle as the general look of the house - aren't they? stay best man! And interrior design and decoration fan. I love handamde things, unsuals, minimalism & cross-cultural design. Also a huge fan of handmade mirrors from http://piaggi.co/uk/store Re: Renovating our 1960's modernist home [project thread] 17Mar 03, 2016 9:42 pm Wow looks amazing......beautiful job <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=62083">viewtopic.php?t=62083</a><!-- l --> Re: Renovating our 1960's modernist home [project thread] 18Mar 04, 2016 3:53 pm Thank you!
