What's New You Ask....

Last year we built this new front room, so now it is official. What was once the back of the house is now the front. We have a new formal entry, and a new garage, both of which I designed. The slanted upper lines are a theme that I picked up from the interior ceiling lines of the original Eichler style of the house. This slant is then used all over and I think works well. The garage was built two years ago and is the first building we have ever built. The front room is our second building and was much more difficult because of attaching to the existing house. The garage is a detached three car, 25' x 45' with lots of work and storage spaces. You can see on the right side of the first picture, flagstone that is to be used as the front walk-up and for a new patio off the living room.
