    Wall art - Hi there. Love the wall art. Can you tell me who the artist is and if this was specially painted for you? Love the colours.

    CG&S Design-Build This was painted by Cari Palazzolo. The art was provided for the photoshoot, but was subsequently obtained by the owner.

    CG&S Design-Build Yeah that could get pretty pricey! And the thing is, they work on-site, so you would probably have to find an additional local mason to complete the work. I'm actually not sure if craftsman in that link did this specific work, but they do work like that all the time.

    rbcola Well.....I appreciate your efforts to help and your rapid, logical response. I'll keep the picture and if I can talk to a local limestone mason (lots of quarries here!).....I'll find out what my options are.

    Window shades - What type of window shades are these called?
    · Comment · 2 days ago
    CG&S Design-Build Not sure exactly what these are—a separate firm made selections for the interiors, and perhaps the client chose them.

    Cork wall - Do you need to wash the corks and dry them in the sun prior to making a cork backsplash wall?
    · Comment · 12 days ago
    CG&S Design-Build No they just dry as they're stored, although perhaps this would be a good way if you wanted to dry them out really fast.

    jacksonbeth Another neat option is this tile backsplash option from Web Don, called Kitchen Palette. We just used this in our kitchen and its awesome. You can interchange the over piece over the stove or sink.

    Need help - What all do you need to make or info to make this bed

    CG&S Design-Build Not sure really; the bed was provided by clients way after we were done with the project. We don't generally do furnishings.

    Texas Lightsmith looks like a lot of 2x4's, rope, wall hooks, futons and casters.. I wonder if the top bunk hinges... I can see kids pushing each other across the room on that bottom bunk! So fun!

    Texas Lightsmith be sure to use industrial anchors set into the wall studs! Perhaps consider the weight of the sleeper (or hopper) and ask about load restrictions on the parts you buy.

    Hard to tell, but is the countertop high gloss white formica?

    CG&S Design-Build I don't believe so. Unfortunately, this project is too far in the past to find records of the finishes.

    Did you have to do anything to reinforce the floor for weight of bathroom? - What was involved in creating a bathroom in the attic? Could the floor take the weight (I see you did not install a bath), or were there an... Read More »

    CG&S Design-Build To make things easier the bath was tucked into the attic space above a hall bath downstairs, making the plumbing easier to install. I am not aware of any structural issues that needed to be taken care of. The main challenge was conditioning the space; this was accomplished via a mini-split air conditioning system.

    Lee Green Sexton Even though the ladder was custom made, is it available to buy?

    CG&S Design-Build It's a one-of-a-kind piece, so one would have to be made totally anew and adapted to a specific situation. So in that sense, it can be bought.
