Countertop, stairs, etc

By kdfuturama

The kitchen countertops were installed. Keeping with a clean, modern look, we went with a white Corian countertop cut with a minimal edging for the kitchen. We also had the countertop waterfall over the end of the island so that it wraps the cabinets. We left an area for seating at the end of the island where it joins the wall:

The walls have all been primed and the painter will be painting this week. We’re painting the inside white with grey accent walls throughout the house. We’ll also have one wall that goes up the stairs all the way to third floor painted in orange.

Speaking of stairs, we finally got the stairs installed:

And interior doors too:

Plus the tiles are almost finished in all of the bathrooms:

The upstairs bar is being installed. It will be glossy black cabinets up against the orange accent wall from the stairs which should look pretty nifty:

This bar will be in the third floor “playroom” that opens onto the deck via the garage door:

To install the garage door on the interior of the house so that it doesn’t look messy, we decided to drywall in the tracks for the door. The initial installation job with the usual metal poles may work fine in a regular garage, but looked terrible inside the house. Our solution turned out well, we think:

The island for the kitchen in the mother-in-law suite has been drywalled, as has all of the floor baseboard trim been installed:
