Doors now installed

The four panels -- two fixed and two sliding -- in the living room.



The front pivot-style door, and matching window in the porch that brings light into inner hallway at one end of the kitchen -- both using milk glass. Note the door rail/handle that seems to float in the glass.


Door from the kitchen into the rear garden. Space above is for the triangular shaped clerestory windows.



Next photos show the detailed work necessary before drywall can be hung. The first is the living room ceiling showing lights, speaker enclosures and the sprinklers -- the latter a Culver City requirement (costing $10,000!) for new construction.



The freestanding wall between the kitchen and dining space, with an opening cut more for the view. J wanted to ensure that is not a serving hatch, so it will not even have a shelf! Note the amount of wiring running through the walls.



Even the smaller details get attention, like the mailbox (naturally in the same metal finish as the windows) and the cat door in the TV room.
