Giles and Paula Add a Room Onto the Side of The House

[Steffen]

Thats a quite common theme with hardware store paint here, absolute pain in the arse if you have to do it yourself and even a bigger pain if you have to pay somebody by the hour to paint it for you.

I personally like to use paint by the company "Keim" because they do silicate paint which i prefer over acrylic paint because its more natural and the colors are way brighter and react better with light, the blue wall on my outfit pics sometimes is a Le Courbousier (very famous swiss Bauhaus architect) Color by Keim.

[Giles]

I use Keim on the exterior of our house when we originally painted it…..

@Giles:

And the F&B paint is really thin, so the decorator needs to paint more coats to get the same depth of colour….

Hmmm, have no experience with Little Green which seems to be not that widespread on the continent but our complete interior is painted with F&B, two coats and we are very happy with the results.

[Giles]

And today, I got all of the lighting installed….

(Henry the vacuum cleaner is on top of the wall units because I'm cleaning all the crap that accumulates up there….)

Maddy: "I want to cook there… but, it's too much pressure", lol!

Henry FTW.

Lighting is subtle and well executed!

is that the new extension or the old kitchen? gosh it looks so unrecognisable from when i'm there!! good work! it's finally coming together..

[Giles]

That's the new kitchen, but half the units are from the old one….

[ROman]

It's really coming along quite nicely.

ahh right yes. i realised after i saw the roof. i initially thought it was the old kitchen and was trying to figure out where the windows went…

[Steffen]

Does the Fridge (?) in the front get a Kitchen Front too ? If that is the Fridge isn´t that a bit small ?

[Giles]

That is the booze fridge (because it will front onto the kitchen dining area), and yes it gets a front… Main fridge/freezer is the last tall cabinet on the left.....

[Giles]

Tiling may happen tomorrow, so P and I have just laid out the tiles for the cooker splashback for Les….

[Giles]

Les cranks up the volume…...To ensure we had no cut tiles horizontally and have the grout joints not be too wide, we added a couple of infill pieces to the cooker hood (these will get filled and painted....

Les has his head screwed on…..

[Giles]

Everybody needs a Les…...I encounter a problem, Les has a solution.....

[organisys]

Once the kitchen is done, keep a bottle of his favorite tipple in the cupboard you named after him….
