meunier16 Sorry I ment to say type not time!

thirdstone inc. [^] Hi meunier16,

The roof is an SBS (Modified Bitumen Roofing Membrane) on sloped (2x6 framing) on TJI Joists. There are no internal roof drains. Rain or melt water slopes all to one side (LEFT) through scuppers into troughs . Water then drains along a trough and is discharged and rain water leaders at the ground surface towards the back lane (there were no existing storm water systems in this neighbourhood)

There were initial considerations for doing a roof top patio, but budget constraints prevented this. The TR House (under construction) however has a roof patio.

thirdstone inc. [^] Hi kkia1234,

Greetings from Edmonton Alberta, Canada and sorry for not responding sooner. For some reason your question slipped past me.

The LG House was built on a 25' wide city lot. However, the site's depth is 140' long. The main portion of the house is connected to a garage accessed from the back lane which results in a long narrow footprint, however, it is possible that the main dwelling could fit on a 60' deep lot.

If you provide me with more information and development regulations, i can offer more detailed direction. You can also contact us at info@thirdstone.ca to discuss further

thirdstone inc. [^] Hi saksun,

Thanks for the question and interest in the LG House.

We detailed the ceiling to allow a 'roller shade' to be tucked up above the ceiling line. - see attached close up image / detail section of the front window from the interior. We also did this on the SD House project.

We also specified the roller fabric to be black. For this reason when you have the roller shade down during the day it isn't visible. Even with the shades down natural light will filter through during the day.

Hope this helps!

Grabill Windows & Doors Yes we fabricated the door, sidelite with specialty glass, overhead stainless steel awning with numbers. Grabill can provide complete turnkey options for highly custom projects as this one.

thirdstone inc. [^] Thanks - I am currently working on project that is under construction and i was proposing something similar to the following image for the main entry door - approx. 36" w x 109" h.

The exception is that the door would fit into a fiber-glass frame - with flanking sidelites. If you're interested in pursuing this further please contact me at info@thirdstone.ca so we can continue our correspondence via email.

thirdstone inc. [^] Hi marc73,

Sorry for misunderstanding your question. The front 'fence' is simply fibre-cement panels (James Hardie product) fastened to an upright fence post.

marc73 I mixed up wall and fence, sorry for that, and thanks for the fast response.

oguyuldar Thank you for coming back to me. much appreciated.. I live in Vienna, Austria and am currently looking into a plot which is 12 meter wide and 25 meter long.. Zoning bylaws require 3meter sideyard setback each side and leaves us 6meter ( 18 feet) on the wide and 20 meter length to build.. i really like your project which seems good fit into the land i am looking at..

thirdstone inc. [^] You're welcome oguyuldar!...18' width is a good (and more practical) dimension to work with than 17'.

Best of luck with your project and please fill us in on your progress...
