Please help answer a real dumb question about views/windows.
Comments (14)Thanks again, mightyanvil and sierraeast. I'm pretty sure DH doesn't have a laser. I heard from the structural engineer, who will get back to me in a day or two. Here are some pix of the construction, just in case it's of interest. Is it true that tempered windows break more easily (although they hold together) than plain double- or triple-paned windows? If so, I guess we might want to keep the windows 18 inches above the floor so any rocks the wind throws at us won't damage easily-broken tempered windows. So what we're thinking of doing is making these windows the same height and either 6 1/2 or 7 feet long vertically to unify the look and give us a better look at the mountains, valley, and lake (lake is seen out the side window). Any suggestions appreciated. Thank you again....See MoreCalling all layout experts!!! PLEASE help with 2nd floor layout
Comments (8)Mjlb: Yes! One bath could be accessible from hall. If you have ideas, I would love to hear them. I should have added I planned to eliminate entrance to Master closet from hall anyways. That's just weird to begin with. I really want my daughter (who will be the oldest child) to have her own bath, which is why I wanted to do the en-suite baths. In regards to thinking in 3D, trust me, I have....or trying to anyways. I have a program I use (not a professional but it helps with the visualization.) The bumping out is actually creating a larger family room below, which is why I want to do it, not just to create a larger Master. Plan has two fireplaces. Both are listed as optional, so I have so wiggle room there as well. This is a stock plan, Unfortunately a truly custom plan is not in the budget. I love so many aspects of this plan, especially the exterior....See MoreI'm back with new kitchen layout help!
Comments (10)Hi benjes I didn't really love closing off the DR from the kitchen. I liked everything else. That is why I closed the side door so I thought I might get more space that way. I thought about splitting the fridge and freezer on that wall with the sink in the middle? Not sure. I keep trying layouts and the triangle never seems to work. my DH doesn't really care about the triangle and tells me to put the appliances where they work for me. I'm just stumped at this point....See MoreSconce Lighting Question-Please Help! Please see all 4 photos...
Comments (2)It looks like you will be getting light from both the top and bottom of these sconces, and so I would try to do a test installation before doing a permanent mount. I have a portable wall that I use for testing the sconces that I design, but you might be able to make something similar yourself with a half sheet of plywood and a "J" box. You will need to add a block of wood next to the hole that you cut for for the J box, for mounting the J box. Here's part of the drawing I used for building the sample wall, showing plan, back view, and side view. The rectangle in the center is the hole for the J box. This drawing does not include the base we made to hold the wall....See Moreck_squared
