The Tappe guys jumped right in and started building the rough framing for the porch decks this morning. By noon they had the front and both side porches set up and were about to finish up the 6 x 6 support structures that sit on the footings poured Saturday.
We decided very early in the design process to have large porch across the front to take advantage of the beautiful view and make the “L” Shaped House more welcoming. Two thirds of the front porch will be open. The last third will be a screen porch off the living room. In the next couple of days the framers will add support columns and roof trusses over the deck surface and the roofers will start to install a standing seam metal roof. It is going to be fun to watch as this last important element of the house develops.
