STUDIO & WAREHOUSE

Driving Directions
In October of 2000 we moved to a new location. While the building we planned to use for the business was not quite done, we *happily* squeezed into a temporary space so we could begin work on finishing the building.

The building as we bought it. It was originally an oversized garage for a Chevy collector.
Just a large open space. Only stud walls, a tiny bit of insulation and temporary light fixtures. My son liked the *roller rink* aspect. Great for riding bike, skateboard and roller blades! (Boy, is he going to miss that!)
Beginning to frame in where the garage doors are, changing it to windows and a people door.
A partition wall is put up to separate the studio from the warehouse. A large opening is left for double doors.
Plumbing was added for a 1/2 bath (a necessity don't you think?) with another utility sink on the warehouse side for manufacturing and future workshops.
Windows are roughed in. We added 13 windows to the building. Natural light is a must for creativity!
Windows are added to all sides. Front door is in and new siding applied.
The warehouse gets light throughout the day with windows on all sides. And it's much nicer to look out at the trees!

Insulating is not a fun job, but a must for a quiet cozy workspace! Thanks to Jeremy and Malynda for doing great work!

We're just about ready for drywall!

Drywall goes up. Taping and texture are next!
The space seems even bigger with a ceiling!
Seems like a big jump to go from drywall to flooring, but the guys doing the wall work were great. Hang, tape, texture was done in speedy fashion, and the painter zipped in and painted in one day.

Wonderful flooring makes it seem like home (Probably should be, since I spend more time in my studio than at home...)

Had to use my favorite color, a soft mossy green speckled carpet with green accents in the vinyl.
