Ground floor frames

Yesterday Muhsina and I visited the building site and walked through the ground framework of the house. Below is a 15minute video of the walkthrough. Although we get a better sense of the space now, I don't think we will appreciate how large or small the areas are until the gyprock walls are installed. 

 The south east "bull nose" of the house (Lounge room).
 Muhsina's bay window
 Prayer and Lounge rooms
Sliding doors and windows waiting to be installed - hopefully Monday.

Frames and Kitchen design

The frames have been delayed slightly due to complications with the complex roof design.  Whilst we are waiting for the frames to be put up (hopefully start tomorrow), I thought I'd share the kitchen design with you.  Taha from Tradeco Interiors put this design together and will be building the kitchen, laundry and the custom vanity in the main bathroom.

The floor slab

The ground floor slab was poured on the morning of Friday 6 July.   By mid-day they were still smoothing over the surface.  By Saturday morning it was all dry and we could walk around.
