Pulling the Trigger


It's been a long road--I'm on my third builder and the expected cost is twice what I was shooting for, so I've been sitting on this decision since last Fall, when I called a halt to the project. In movie business parlance, this project was "in turnaround."

The design hasn't changed much: the light grey is concrete (lots of concrete), the dark grey is fiber cement panels (more on this later), the tan stuff is wood, and there's a huge curtain wall of glass facing west-northwest. Oak trees surround the East, South and North sides of the house.
