Close to moving in

The last few days saw the installation of the garage door; the completion of the eaves and fascia metal; and the hanging of outdoor lighting fixtures. Also all appliance installation and the final plumbing work, the installation of two toilets.

Internal painting continues, as done the final cabinetry work as the fridge/freezer and the dishwasher will have cabinet wood fronts.

Move-in is scheduled for Oct 22!!



Note the starburst "dingbat" -- the name given to such elements on mid-century modern houses and apartments. Ours lights up at night. Also the roof's "wings" are now fully finished in the brown metal.






The new light fitting in the porch was sourced in Palm Springs and is in a style often seen on mid-century modern houses.



The garage door -- powder coated in the orangey color that was also used in the porch.

Would you mind sharing your cost per sq. ft and the name of your builder? I would like to build a modern green house as well but I am torn between using a product like SIP or a steel system like Ecosteel. Thanks for sharing your experience.
