Late June/Early July - The Outside

One month later, the rendering is nearly done, the cladding is ready for finishing touches and the finish date looking very likely to be on time.  A shout out to the builder and architect for their great job so far!

A few update photos of the outside:

JUNE - The back door is in.

JULY - bathroom window is in.  This will look out onto a little walled garden.

JUNE - from the front door looking towards the street.  Wall complete.  Render next.

JUNE - the kitchen wall is complete.

JULY - the kitchen rendering is on its way and the charred wood is looking great.  It's quite textural as it begins to weather and the grain is becoming more obvious.

JULY - the west side of the house looking down the driveway.

JULY - the west side of the house looking up the driveway

JULY - the east side of the house.  The roof line is very interesting although the photo doesn't show close-up details.  You can see the front entrance down the side of the house, rendered.  The 'fake' door is where the door was on the original cottage and sits in traditional style in the middle of the front.  To be discussed later!
