After Two Weeks of Carpentry

So, after 2 weeks of carpentry, here are the results. I had not been up for a week or so, so there was a fair bit of progress. The main floor walls are in place (well, almost all of them), there is a temporary stairway to the second floor, and some of the decks are partially framed. That was necessary as some of the roof structure carries out over the decks/porches.



This picture shows the side of the house where there will be a deck leading along the side of the house to the screen porch. It's framed and sitting on temporary supports.













This is looking from the doorway toward the front left corner of the house, where the screen porch will be. That opening will be a pair of french doors.










And this shot is standing at the french door opening to the screen porch, overlooking the river. When things are further along, I'll cut down a few trees to give me a better view of the river.

Here's a short video of the main floor of the house. So far, so good! Lots of windows and the screen porch looks great!

And finally for now, here's what the floor tile selections look like. The 2"x2" mosaic greys and whites and blacks (below) are for the master shower, the mustard floor tile will match up with some 8x8 beige wall tiles for the second floor bathroom, and the beige with trim (left) is for the entryway and powder room off the entry. There will also be a 3-foot circular mosaic for the centre of the entryway (not picked up yet.
