question about the floor

hace 11 años

the floor, the section that is NOT tile, is that poured and colored concrete? Is not this type of floor cold for Vermont winters, or am I mistaken.

Hi Helena,

What you see here is actually an earthen floor, made of packed sand and clay. It actually does work here in the cold, wet Northeast. The floor you see here we installed for a client in New York state. It is finished with an oil/wax to provide water resistance and strength.

If you have more questions, I'd be happy to answer them. Our website is www.newframeworks.com, and we offer natural building options for renovation and new construction to homeowners. You can also look at http://www.claylin.com/, for more information on the floors themselves. I am a certified Claylin installer.

All the best,

Ace

Hi, Provenca The current trend is to install all the high kitchen cabinets on one side, without respecting mirror symmetry. I hope I've helped to answer your question. Visit us at Facebook :-) Gabriela Rojman | puzzle arquitectura

Gm everybody, My wife and me are trying to design our new kitchen, and we are a bit concern about its location in the house. This is a DIY project, so we are looking for opinions. As you can see in the picture, we are creating the kitchen room at the left bottom side and keeping a garden at the left upper. Our first idea was to locate the kitchen close to the living door (upper in the picture) but we would like to mantain the garden. Thanks in advance for any kind of help!! Rodri

Dear experts, do you know where I can buy the same pendants for the chandelier as in the photos? Interested in rhombuses with a plane in the middle with same gradient. And a decorative element under the candle. Unfortunately, I can't find similar in internet. And may be you now where is possible to buy the chandelier as in this photo?
