Design Update

As is often the case now we are getting some prices in for the work there are one or two things that have caused us to have a re-think on the layout particularly with regards to cost and practicality. Also, as the design has developed and we have got into the detailing side of the scheme a few compromises needed to be made to the first floor layout that we now don't feel comfortable with. So we have decided to go back to an earlier design and with a few tweaks.




 
 We intend hiding the staircase behind a wall that supports the trimmed out floor joists. I have some interesting ideas on the design of the stairs as I don't want to simply throw in a standard of the shelf flight that creaks and sounds hollow when walked up. I will make this a subject of a further post in the near future.
