As the King of England wrote in his diary on July 4th, 1776, "No news today". This seems to be the case right now. No news. You may have noticed that there was no blog last week. We forgot to inform you that we are going to an every other week schedule.
A couple of tidbits:
The courtyard housing project is going splendidly. We have gained a new houseplan with 3 variations from it. This should be showing up in our portfolio soon, right after the promised Edgewood. The Creston is a 3 bed, 2 bath, 1 car garage 1320sf +/- townhouse. Variations are made with different facades and bumpouts. They are free standing units, but could certainly be attached without losing their personal charm. We hope to eventually offer a 2 and 3 unit variation.
We are undertaking some small building projects in order to better understand how framing works in a real world setting. These are by no means houses, but we are planning on an 8x12 shed and an outdoor kitchen.
Craftsman features are sucking us in further and further. We hope to have a photo gallery soon of some great fixtures and craftsmanship that display this style.
We realize that there is a small problem with the website. If you hadn't noticed, individual plan pages seem to scroll to the bottom of the page as soon as you click on their link. The problem has been isolated, but fixing it may take a little time. Please bear with us in the meantime.
We built a good neighbor style fence with our neighbors this past weekend. The project went great, but we started brainstorming about other fence styles that would meet both the good neighbor and craftsman ideals. A good neighbor fence is one that looks pleasant from both sides. It may not make your grass look greener however. We are contemplating fence and handrail designs that are beautiful but simple (a must in the craftsman genre). We will post these on the website in the near future and have an idea page that you can glean from.
Until next time, istockhouseplans.
