slip sliding away

i know i have abandoned this blog. it is not my intention because we are still working hard on the house. but life as an architect + photographer has gotten hectic lately. i've got a few shots from late april/early may of the bathroom work. that bathroom is done now, and also has once coat of paint, but i don't have photos yet. also, here's one shot of the living room with some paint on the walls finally... it still needs touch ups, and we're far from finished with the paint rollers, but it's a start. more to come... 

first the bathroom. IKEA sink that i love. and the toto toilet is like the one in our master bath.

and the fixtures in place. i know, i'm a dork.

and here's the living room. one dark grey wall. it turned out bluer than i thought it would - the color is steel wool from benjamin moore. i like it, though... i think. the green in the nook is still the test swatch. but it will be that color, more or less. the rest of the walls are a faint grey... mostly white, but up against the few places where we have trim painted you can see the difference.

maybe you can tell the color of the walls a little better in this shot of the kitchen... up against the white cabinets and countertops. it's subtle.

that's it for now. one day i'll have it all done done and get some final shots up. but we've got a lot of painting to do before that.
