Introduction

For the next few six months I will be updating you all with the daily construction works, challenges, the expected and unexpected that we will encounter in the construction of my first residential building project ( a contemporary residential home). Take a look at the 3D model below.
 
I welcome new ideas and suggestions for the better looks and stability of the building. Details drawings will be uploaded soon, as we are still on the design stage of the project. Stay tight.
