To-morrow will be the start of our new home – the very start of the extension in the form of a concept idea inside the mind of our architect Barry, from Waikanae. We heard about him from neighbours who are starting to build a complete house from scratch.
We will meet on site with Barry and present him with a sketch of what we would like to get for lemonade money. Based on previous experience, I know firstly, that what you want and what you eventually get are two distinct things, and that, secondly, the eventual cost always exceeds the initial estimates by a zillion. Let’s give Barry a chance to disprove this theory:
The sketch which we will hand to Barry, so that he has some idea of what we would like him to fit into the picture for us. Bedroom=Beige, en-suite lounge=turquoise, en-suite bathroom=green and wardrobes/dressing room=blue; main house laundry=white.
For anyone challenged when it comes to reading plans, here is a photographic representation (note: Most certainly nowhere near to scale, because my ability to draw lines in perspective is a bit yucky…)
We will track the progress of the project.
