The
front of the house as seen from the street. Whose beautiful blue car
is that? |
The
front of the house, as seen from between a portopotty and a Honda Ridgeline. |
Ah,
much better. |
The
Grand Poobah entering what will one day be the garage. |
The
garage. |
Plenty
of scaffolding around this column, which will be the entrance in a few
months. |
There's
even a little trailer out front. |
In
the right side garage, there is a dumbwaiter. For hoisting the old
folks up when they become frail in about 5 years. Was that too harsh? |
So
now between the two garages is this little foyer-like place, where I am
looking out what will soon be the front door. |
The
left garage gets a table for now. |
That's
my sis, dad and grandma in the "foyer." |
The
stairs to the first floor, which is really just the half-floor. The
house is built with what amounts to half-levels. There will be I think
5 levels in all, amounting to 3 stories. |
My
dad successfully convinced my sister that this crawlspace was her room. |
From
the first level looking back on the "foyer." |
So
the whole floor is the mater bedroom area, and the front part on the left of
this pic will be a bathroom. |
And
through a door such as this, you can enter the bedroom. |
A
wall of the master bedroom. |
Meeting with the architects in the master bedroom. |
The
view from my parents' room. |
A
view to the ocean from the first level master bedroom. |
The
whole room. |
Going
up another half level to the smaller bedrooms. |
My
bedroom, with bad lighting. |
My
sister's bedroom, which has better light right now. But the two are
identical anyway. We share a bathroom. |
My
sis' view to the front. |
Down
the stairs to the master bedroom. The staircase is always in the
middle of the house. |
