We have officially obtained the keys to the house! That's right, it's the settlement day, Friday 6th of September, 2013! I have just come back from visiting the house and I took a whole bunch of photos becuase I was super excited. I am currently in the process of uploading them to my computer so that I can share them with you. I will make a new post tomorrow with the first photos!
You may notice that I have changed the blog name from "A sweet little rose" to "Casa Almora". Why? Well firstly, the original name I felt had little relevance to the blog. Then, upon visiting the house, I took note of the name on the plaque that is displayed on the heritage facade, "Almora". Usually the names of these houses belong to the original builder. So I believe that it is a nice tribute and acknowledgement to my house's history. "Casa" comes into the blog's name simply due to the mammoth sized restoration, renovation and extension this house will undertake.
The plans I have designed are almost finished. I took some measurements so that I could ensure my dimensions are accurate. I need to make a few alaterations, but hopefully I figure it all out. That's the fun of designing. I love the problem-solving becuase I explore so many other potential concepts.
I hope your Friday has been as fantastic as mine has!
