The week started as any other, Monday morning meeting and then back onto the drawings. Working drawings is the aim of the month to come and everything revolving the Hemelzight Farmhouse Project. So i started with the repositioning of driveways and planning becuase some changes needed to be made and the contractors on site needs the info to prepare the platforms.
Tuesday came and i was onto the working drawings and details of the pool and decking area. We are at that stage now where you have got to think about which drawings and area to tackle first according to what the contractors and builders on site will be looking for as they start building. The drawing catergaries are brocken up into Siteworks and primary, Secondary structures and fixtures and fittings. In this project though it gets abit confusing because there are three buildings, the Main farmhouse, the Cottage and the Barn being built.
Thursday i then moved on to the Barn council sub. Rider Plans, it has been decided that the barn should now be resubmitted to council because we have moved it to a new location, and the location is now finalised, so i started working on that. Not long after that, yet another argent matter had to be attended to and i had to work on the road designs on friday. A bit of road designing and planning in here aswell! The client does not want to spend more money putting in new roads and wants to use the existing ones as much as possible. While we would still like to keep our route which meanders past the dam and vinyard area. So it was back to the drawing boards for us, or should i say workstations!

Late Blog.... Lots of working drawings to go out
OK, sorry for the late blog, but last week was a bit strange i felt like i had to re-adjust back into the work environment after a week at tech and i was just out of swing.
I was back at work at Bomax Monday morning in the meeting, sitting with a bandaged finger and body aches from the weekend overnight hike, but ready do get back onto the Hemelzicht Farmhouse.
I soon got back onto the kitchen layout planning and design. Finishing off the drawings and joinery and setting up the scullery/pantry and laundry as well. During the week that i was at tech the house was handed over for construction which now calls for a whole new batch of drawings to issued. I then moved onto the electrical layouts making sure everything was ready and preparing it for construction. All the secondary structure working drawings as well as the fittings & fixtures drawings needs to be set up and done in time for construction. So i started setting up the staircase, built in fireplaces and some fixtures and fittings drawings. I then moved onto the Cellar and pool drawings, mostly just getting them ready for crit and then to move on from there. Then ill be onto the real construction and detailing of these items... :)

Another one bites the dust
So another week has past and its tech week next week and i still have quite abit to do...
I was working on the Hemelzicht farm house this week again and i was busy with kitchen layout and planing. The week started with some brain storming to resolve some detailing with the joinery and the junctions between joinery, ceilings and walls. Then on Wednesday we sat down and further resolved the area with a nice design and planning of the kitchen session.
I am creating a fabulous kitchen in this Modern Cape farmhouse in Hermanus, situated on a small vineyard. The kitchen is quite modular and modern but with an old timber farmhouse feel to it. Which is achieved by some timber architraves and detailing around window and door openings and cantilevered timber stairs next to it.
thats all for now, its back to tech for a week next week, so see you soon.
