Exploring lean construction and the future of building design | Professor Iris Tommelein, University of California, Berkeley

I love the dark warm honey color.

Check out your local recycling centre.Maybe you can get free natural mulch too!I debated back and forth a bit with myself this week about whether or not to show you yet another update on my front hall.

I’ve already shown you soooo many photos of a half-finished hall, how much more can you really take?How interesting can that really be?.The real answer is infinitely.

It’s infinitely interesting to some people, and as much as I love a good wham bam before and after, I have to admit that I love the long, painful drawn-out before and afters so much more.There’s a real life going on there.

There’s a story..

The story here is the power of 15 minutes.It hardly takes up any space at all, but it easily stores a lot of necessary stuff..

Check to see if you’re storing any “bathroom stuff” in random places around the house..Sometimes we just find a place to keep stuff and we don’t really ever give it a second thought, even if it doesn’t really make much sense to have it there.

Have a quick peek around the cupboards and closets in your home to see if there are things that might be nice to keep in the bathroom that you’re designing the vanity for.We’d been keeping all of our towels in the bank of cabinets in the back hall off of our master bedroom and that wasn’t really a bad place for them because that’s right outside the bathroom door..
