November 11, 2006

After a couple of weeks of silence, some new updates on the internal proceedings. The painter has finished the first stage of his work and the tiler is now busy laying the tiles. The first picture shows the top part of the chimney, completely smooth and painted. The second one shows the lower part of the chimney and the room ready to be finished with floor tiles. The last one shows the first rows of floor tiles in the hallway. The tiles are South African Blue Slate. They have been cleaned and sealed before they’re being layed. Afterwards they will be sealed a second time. The sealing process makes them stain resistant.
