Week 44 -Casework Goes In

Now that the drywall is in, the next big step is to install the casework.  The pictures below show the casework being installed in the kitchen and master bathroom since they will actually be sitting on the sub-floor.  The remaining casework (bar and built-in bookshelves) will go in after the floors are installed.

Week 43 - Catwalk and Stairs

Now that the drywall is mostly finished the steel fabricator was onsite this week to start putting together the steel pieces that make up the internal stairs and catwalk .  As the pictures below show, the catwalk is suspended from the interior wall into the atrium space and the stringers for the internal stairs branch off of the catwalk.

Week 42 - Electricity!


With the interior progressing this week we finally saw activation of our electrical panel and removal of the old unit.  This means we are one step closer to plugging lights into sockets and seeing the house light up at night!
