and we have footings!


The Contractor took advantage of a few nice days and the footings have been poured. You can see even better the outlines for the three wings and the front garden.

See attached a couple awesome drone shoots we got from the Owners.

Excavation

The excavation is complete! You can see very clearly in these images the three wings overlooking the lake with a flat garden on the opposite side.

Since one of the Owners is a gardener it was important to save as many trees as possible which can be noticed in these aerial photos. We even made a few design changes once the excavation began and noticed areas where more trees can be saved. For example, the turnaround area changed shape and size to comply with this request.
