A sense of space

The framing for the garage has arrived and they should have that done by early next week.


Standing in the kitchen looking towards the extension. They removed the window and have busted through the wall at the end of the counter. The cabinetry at the end that is next to the doorway is going to be removed so that the opening into the new space will be twice as wide.

Now if you walk to the beginning of thew new sections and look up you'll see the completed roof framing. The ceiling in this room with be vaulted when complete.

Just below that peak, is the framing for the window that will face the backyard.

Turn to the left and you see the framing for the mudroom door. Just to the left of that you can see into what will be the extension of the bedroom.

Turn to the right and you see the framing for the sliding glass door. So much light!

Now walk into the space and turn around. The ladder is in front of the area the wall that will be removed and replaced with a floor to ceiling bookshelf about half the width (we needed some support here). All the way on the right you see the basement stairs. Soon this area will be framed out with walls and these will be enclosed by a door.
