Amanda and I went to the house today to meet with our landscape designer and see the progress inside the house. We hope to have an update on the landscaping soon. There is a lot of movement inside. Most of our tile has been delivered (see the Modwalls boxes above) and hopefully will start to be put in this week. The boxes contain the glass tiles for the "bus stop", otherwise known as the master shower. We've gone with Backgammon for the floors and bench, and Maple for the shower walls.
We also had the kitchen cabinets delivered from Capitol Group. Can't see much of them right now but they will be out of the boxes soon enough!
The most exciting part of the visit was seeing the first part of our hardwood flooring being put in. We decided on unfinished wide plank oak hardwood floor. Even unfinished they look awesome. This is in the dining room.
This is a view from the dining room into the kitchen. The crew was very nice and talked to us about colors of stain. We are leaning towards keeping them in their natural color since they are so beautiful as is - which would mean, no stain, just a poly seal. If we go this route we will lower the amount of VOC's potentially released in the process. Evidently manufacturers haven't mastered a low-VOC staining product, but the polyurethane seal is low VOC. It's definitely an exciting week!!! Stay tuned!
