@Aetas:

Is this out of the new Apartment?

Sure is!.. It's no Lago di Lucerna but hey… 

[Seul]

[Aetas]

Promising …
How do you like it?

[Seul]

It looks darker in the pic but it's actually midnight blue… You've no idea how much I love midnight blue... Sure it was meant to be choc brown (because I figured they'd match the original colour) but I am BEYOND stoked...

Corner to read/ drink… Window opens up all the way and it's the western side so loads of sun...

[steelworker]

Damn! I like it, Eli. 

[Seul]

I'm SO FUCKING TIRED but was smart enough to take a week off…

IT IS SO MUCH BRIGHTER IN THIS PLACE... Holy cow I feel home already...

Oh and when I say it opens all the way: the left part can be opened as well.

Eli, looks great, but where’s the man eating plant?

[Seul]

My cleaning lady trimmed it! Will now have a prominent spot in the light and sun!

The place is coming along nicely, @Seul. That rug really tied the room together.

Well, in the last 90 days, we managed to:
1. Start on a New House Build (First time we have started with a tree'd lot and gone through the whole process)
2. Secure a Temporary Lease (With my neighbor next door lol)
3. Finish Our Remodel
4. Get Our House in Escrow
5. Get Repairs Made
6. Close on Our House

And we finally move out on Friday.

For those that followed along with my renovation journey, you I hope you enjoy the final images:

We are stoked for the new build, as it is going to have everything we have felt our old house lacked for the last few years… A bit more space for the kiddos, more bathrooms, bigger outdoor living areas, a pro-line kitchen and a dedicated office for my wife, and a larger parking pad.

Here is a general rendering of what the new spot will look like - still finalizing colors, but it will be a lot of white.

Best thing is getting to start fresh with our furniture. We are moving towards a contemporary direction with touches of antique and mid-century - so I'm excited what we can do with the blending.

Of course, I am most excited about the kitchen. Getting to have a bigger Range + Gas will be a blessing, plus the footprint is essentially 2.5x the size of our current kitchen.

Design Inspiration (Kitchen) Here:

Thankfully, permitting passed 10 days ago, so they cleared our lot last week, and managed to put pilings in yesterday! The graded rectangular space in the front right corner will be a a stem wall with slab for the garage, so overall, not much back yard, but still enough to do some big stone pavers for a walking path and a paver patio for a grilling area.

I'll probably over-inundate this thread with the progress - somehow the builder is aiming for a November completion date… I'm not insane enough to think that's possible lol

Cheers,

Adam
