Framing 28/03/2009

Been away for work for this past week so I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the progress that have been made - the frame is almost complete!

I can start picturing what it'll be like inside the house, and seeing the backyard is not as small as I thought. Perhaps it's even big enough for a lap pool :)

Seems like something is happening everyday. The framing is progressively getting completed, with the inter-floor trusses been installed.

We could really see how the interior of the house is shaping up, even though it is the ground floor only. The 2.7m ceiling really creates a sense of space, which goes well with the positioning of the windows to create an intertwined atmosphere of light and space.

All the framing materials were delivered on-site this past weekend, so we should expect the framing to progress quite nicely.

From the pictures you can see the house is starting to take shape - how exciting!

Framing Day 01

Everything moves relatively quickly at this stage of the building process...After discovering the material on-site yesterday, they have started the frame of the house today. It's like building a massive jigsaw puzzle - only it's my house they're playing with!

Frame Material

Approximately 2 weeks after the pouring of the slab, the timber for the frame of the house arrived on site. Apparently it was a struggle for the workers to fit it all in as there is actually not much room to move around.

These photos were taken yesterday (10/03/2009):
