Let the Framing Begin!

Winter hiatus is over! Pete and I have been struggling with the last details of the interior, and finally managed to nail it down. By the way, if you're shopping for bathtubs, make sure you shop online... literally thousands of dollars to be saved.

Anyway, here are a couple of snapshots of one of the models we've been working from. We've made some changes since then - but you get the idea.


Most of the windows are in. We deliberately left a couple open, because we use them to get in and out of the addition. We still haven't broken into the house, which is nice. We're warmer and not dealing with construction traffic.
Note the umbrella in the wood stove pipe. We got sick of puddles on our new subfloor, and Pete came up with the brilliant idea. Adds a little color to the scenery!
Here's our bedroom - the bed will go between the two smaller windows, under the north facing skylight.

The amazing pocket door framing - this ended up being the datum surface for the rest of the interior walls. We spent hours and hours trying to figure out how to fit doors near low walls - we ended up with a (modified and optimized) pocket door for the toilet room (is there a word for that? water closet?) and then placed everything relative to it.
