Concrete Days

Anchor Foundations arrived on Wednesday and concrete is happening. I stopped by after work today and they were placing the forms for the basement. I’m amazed by how different things look as the footprint for each of the structures becomes defined in 3 dimensions. When we met with Rolf and Jeremy on Monday they told us that throughout the process we’ll have different perceptions of the space—and that this happens in all projects. There’s a shift between things looking too big to seeming too small and back again. And we eventually end up (hopefully) with the space feeling just right. Kind of like Goldilocks and the 3 bears.

Well, this process started for me today. The foundation hole was seeming HUGE to me on Tuesday — and now that the forms are going in, it’s looking much smaller. . . glad I was forewarned of this process. More photos are here http://picasaweb.google.com/tinacvt/VillaVerdeConstructionWeek2#
