La Donna Avenue Residence Construction Sneak Peek
Our La Donna Avenue Residence now has windows and drywall. You can now see the long and tall great room. It was too bad the skylights were boarded up the day of our visit!

Hyacinth Lane Residence - Construction Progress
At our Hyacinth Lane Residence, the passthrough / peekaboo opening between the living room and kitchen is now in place. You can see the natural light from the back patio streaming through - a sign that the passthrough will help bring natural light into the center of the house.

Amarillo Avenue Residence - Construction Progress
Amarillo Avenue Residence Progress - Part 3: The skylight and clerestory window over the guest bath shower. I have heard some people call this window/skylight detail "The OFA Special".
Amarillo Avenue Residence Progress - Part 2
All the volumes have been enclosed in plywood sheathing.

Amarillo Avenue Residence Progress - Part 1: the framed openings of the first floor have more emphasis with the solidity of the second floor on top.
Contractor Sketches Part 3
Drawing on stucco, and then the wall is demolished and the sketch is gone forever. Except that the details became the house that now stands. At our Inverness Way Residence, with Phil Carey at Starburst Construction.
Contractor Sketches Part 2
This one is between the studs, right on the inside face of plywood sheathing. It will eventually get covered up with insulation, but will remain as a beautiful time capsule of how our team figured out the details of a sleeping nook. At our Amarillo Avenue Residence, with Augie Peccei of Coast to Coast Development.
