Let the Building Begin

We received L&I (State Permit for the Factory) approval last week and work on the modules has started in earnest. See http://methodhomes.net/blog/2010/orcas-island-prefab-home/.

Interior Finishes Chosen

We met with the cabinetmaker, Wes from Smith and Vallee http://www.smithandvallee.com this weekend. Smith and Vallee will provide the kitchen cabinets, desk spaces, and media cabinet. We have also chosen the appliances so that the cabinets can be custom fit.

We have made the final decisions on interior finishes. The picture shows the materials which includes black walnut veneer (cabinets, desk area, and vanities), hemlock vertical grain (ceiling and sils), Teragren Synergy strand bamboo flooring http://www.teragren.com/, Polar White Eco by Constentino (counter tops) http://www.ecobycosentino.com/, Fondavalle Pietra Dura 18x18 tile, and black river stone accents http://www.vasqueztile.com/.
