Foundations and the first vertical elements


September saw all the foundation work finished and the steel work being installed. These pieces, one at each end of the house, will support the upward slops of the butterfly-style roof, with the top openings holding the clerestory windows.

The one in the photo will be at the end of our living room and will also contain a 20 feet wall of glass, with the center 10 feet being sliders that will open on to the patio.

As I write this, the radiant floor heating is being installed and the slab will be poured this week.
