The ALMOST Final Interior Results

 Well after a year and 4 months, we are in and living comfortably.  Most of the furniture pieces have arrived and I have even managed to buy one art piece! We are waiting for one more chair that had a 4 month lead time, on a funny piece of pop art for the "Internet cafe", on the Ginormous 9 ft sliding doors for the family room, and on the tile for the kitchen backsplash.  Other than that we are in!  Here you go...

Our new Front porch MINUS landscaping..

 

Our First Floor interior spaces.....TaDa....

 Notice the greenish glass on the peninsula - I actually had it all over the kitchen walls and had it immediately removed...ONE big mistake I made...I had the mint green kitchen which did NOT work.  Going back with white in the next few weeks...

This is out "Internet Cafe" space...

            Our dark and sexy Powder room with my new piece of art waiting to be hung....

 The Family Room - Sun room combo. Still missing the leather side chair and the doors.  Our 9ft doors will hang behind the sofa.  Tilo has an artwork on mount on the doors which will add a POP of color to the space.  Don't you love the SHAG rug!!  IS it 2012???

This is Tilo's project - creating a glass fireplace.  The insides will be stainless steel and the flame will burn up through the glass!!

The sunroom..minus art and an all glass coffee tables.  More to come...

 This is the "Bar Area" in the connector hallway from the kitchen area to the family room area.  Mirror just went in today.

 This is our new family space...cook, eat, and surf the web all together.

 And lastly the eat in area - My first table for 8!!  Very exciting!!

The weather has been perfect and with me quitting my job, I was able to get most of the things done including the back yard garden...

NEXT up - PHASE 3 - the landscape / hardscape. YES I am a gluton for punishment!!!

 We will have a new wooden fence installed around the entire garden, new trees planted between us the and the neighbor to our right, a new driveway, new granite stone walls around the planting beds in the front yard, and new modern steel handrails everywhere.  Most of this we will do in teh fall....Stay tuned....
