The plasterboard is all up and the plasterer has done his thing with the nail holes and joints. They have different crews/tradies for each section - one group comes in and does the board, then the joint guy (who has the niftiest stilts), and tomorrow (I guess) the cornice guy comes.
The brickies have done all the way around about halfway up the walls. Today they actually got high under the eaves on the bathroom side but were stopped by the rain; more than is showing in this picture which was taken yesterday.
They should be finished, rain permitting, by the end of the week.



I have uploaded pics of the tiles for the bathroom and en suite. They don't show very well unfortunately.
Main bathroom - the dark tile is a mottled grey/brown which flows well from the main tiles. The wall tile is an offwhite with satin finish. It picks up the colours around it. Leaning toward Pumice for the cabinet doors and Roman Marble for the top. This would be continued in the outside vanity.
En suite - the floor tile is a deep chocolattey colour with black lightning through it. The wall tile isn't showing it's true colour (on my monitor anyway). It's grey (with a bluish tendency) with darker grey lightning. Laminex chosen (so far) is Burnished Wood for the doors and Pearl Grey for the top.The kitchen is the one causing problems! I have to meet with the cabinet maker sometime this week and I still have no idea what colour to do it. On days like today, it's quite dull inside despite the big sliding doors - a sky tube might be in order in the future I think.
I have put a number of possibles for the cabinetry on the floor tile. This tile will be all through the house except for bathrooms and bedrooms.
I'm leaning towards the darker Burnished Wood with a lighter stone top at this stage - the one shown is Caesarstone Ivory. I can also have colour in the glass for the splashback behind the stove.
Any ideas? opinions? Let me know!!! arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
