Sheet Rock

The sheet rock is nearly installed, mudded and taped. Now we can really get a feel for the size of the interior spaces. Of course, the finish materials will make a big difference as far as the quality of light and overall experience is concerned.

I'm glad we got a lot of pictures of the framing before all the sheet rock went up. My friend Taylor recently pointed out major benefits of knowing the location of ducts, plumbing, electrical runs and chases in the walls. This is an advantage for any future remodels or simple additions/alterations when joining with the existing conditions.

The master bedroom ceiling is complete. With the sheet rock in place the alignment of doors and openings becomes more evident. The decision to drop the height of the ceiling here proved to be a good one after seeing the additional horizontal space created.
