New Renderings!

Get a look at the interior spaces of the Main House and the Bridges in the new section renderings, and we have new exterior renderings and drawings as well:

Footings complete - Drone video

Before installing the forms for the concrete basement & retaining walls, the Owner was able to take this impressive video of the shooting. Please note the location of the three buildings, connection between them, location on the site, and adjacency to the lake.

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.
