T & G Art

The following are a couple of new pictures of our community room we are currently building. The room is upstairs, 32' x 42', and will be a room for guests to gather, groups to hold meetings, etc. We have a lot of fun things planned for this room, but I'll save those tidbits for later. The last few weeks we've had a wonderful craftsman, Scott and his assistant Andrew, working on a number of projects around here including the gorgeous ceiling of the new community room. All tongue-in-groove, with some added cedar for contrast, it is truly a work of art and we are so happy with it. First picture below you see a bit of the scale of the room, looking at the north wall, where the entrance is and where the wood stove will be.

Above, on the west ceiling, are four diamond-shaped patterns where pendant lamps will hang.

The south wall has four large windows and these two smaller windows on top, letting in lots of light and sunshine. Above the two small windows the T & G is interspersed with cedar in a sunburst pattern.

The east ceiling is a mountain scene, with a birch icecap on the tallest mountain. You can just see in the top right a cedar crescent moon and to the left of the mountains, not in the picture, are seven cedar diamond stars representing the Big Dipper.

And on the north wall, a beautiful compass rose. 

Audie and I started applying primer to the walls today, and will soon start painting. The flooring will start going in next week as well. I'll keep posting pics of the progress!
