Inspirations

Exterior Look

This is the inspiration for the exterior with walk outbasement, loft, cathedral ceilings, at the window walls. The main floor wnidow wall has an area that is open from main floor to the roof's ceiling.

The Interior

The Beaver Lumber Manitoulin inspired the interior, although the exterior is not attractive, the layout with loft and open area is a nice use of space. Fireplace on main floor is shown in concept but not on their floor plan.

All Black

The colours and style used in this 511 property are attractive although we will not use as much wood in the roof design.


"Therefore encourage one another and build one another other up, just as you are doing."

 And it will be said: “Build up, build up, prepare the road! Remove the obstacles out of the way of my people.” Isaiah 57:14
