And it feels great.

We still need to get office furniture for Dena for that bare end and to get up the Phyllis Weiner piece between the sconces. And presumably some other things. And we’re still tweaking the new heating system to keep it from spraying nasty radiator water all over our rooms.

But we’re basically in. The speakers all work (hooray!) and the room sounds terrific. So nice getting to think about a/v stuff while designing a room.

Some pictures:

Final inspection tomorrow. One more coat on the floor on Saturday. Then we can move in! (Sometime they’ll take away the dumpster, level out the yard, etc., too.)

The built-ins are really coming along, and doesn’t the window seat area look cozy, especially with the lights in the soffit thing?

I think the carpenter is aiming to be done with all of the built-ins and trim today. Then the painters need to come back to paint all of that, and the floor needs one more coat of polyurethane. And of course the electrician needs to come back to put in all of the fixtures. Super close to being done, though!

The built-ins are getting installed, and man, they’re nice.

(There will be a pad on that space below the window making a window seat. And there will be shelves in the vertical spaces to either side of the window.)

(And between those windows will be our armoir.)

(Doors on all of the cabinets along the floor, all the way around.)

And they finished the outdoor painting and the match is about as good as you could hope for:
