Bedrooms!

Lunchtime Progress: Bedrooms :)

Yesterday, the guys were able to set the upstairs hallway wall and this morning they have put in the ceiling joists on the rafters and were working on framing the bedroom walls.  When I left, they were starting to frame up the closets for each bedroom.  I'll try to describe what you're seeing in the pictures below, but honestly, it just looks like a jumbled mess, lol.

 Above:  I'm standing in the bonus room looking back towards the loft area; The room I'm in is not a bedroom at this point, because there is no closet. I'm serioulsy thinking about adding one - and soon! The open section you see on the left room (beside the nail gun) is where the closet is about to be installed.  That's the doorway in the hall that leads back to the loft.  You can also see from this picture how the ceiling is not going to be completely flat in these rooms.  Right above the window, you can see where the rafters and ceiling joist meet, and the ceiling to the bedrooms will follow that angle. 

Below:  The bedroom opposite of the one in the first picture.  Structurally it's going to be a mirrored image of the one across the hall, sloped ceiling and all.  Ken is working on the closet in this one.  I'm standing on the loft, taking the picture across the stairwell and through the wall.

Below:  I'm standing in the exact same place as the picture above, but turned to look across the loft.  The doorway you see framed is for the bathroom, and eventually this section will have rafters over it that will do the same as the bedrooms (sloped back wall).  The rest of the loft will have the open cathedral ceiling up to the point of the collar beams (yet to be determined...)
