New views

Some new pics from the house

showing how the kitchen relates to other rooms and spaces.

This pic is taken standing at the back of the kitchen looking down the island bench and out to the glazed windows of the dining room.

This pic is taken from the dining room looking back to the kitchen.

And I love this view.

Taken from the windows in the dining room, showing the kitchen on the right, living room and staircase on the left ... and up to the front door, part of the original house.

Windows with a real vista

Some of the windows have been installed now ...

The windows for the dining room are yet to come on site.

These will be 'framless butt jointed' .

Say no more!

Apparently James and Ben know what this means.

The glass sliding doors from the living room, which will open onto the deck, look amazing.

Our little patch of paradise is perfectly framed.

It's still hard to believe we're on the fringe of the city.

Taking Shape 2

Yep ... it's all coming together. I can easily look beyond the steel, cement and raw timber to see how our living room, dining room and kitchen will be, in reality. The space flows beautifully.

The change in the floor and ceiling height between the dining and living room will add to the spaciousness in this back area of the house.

This pic shows where the stairs will connect the dining room with the sunken living room ..

I love it ...
