It has been well over a month since I’ve blogged. I have been busy developing designs for a new project and spending any free daylight hours tending to our new landscape. And, if you can believe it, we have been without, cable, internet access, etc. since moving into our new abode last December. Above are renderings of our kitchen renovation. I’ll post the actually photos when we stop living long enough to clean up the space for staged shots.

Below is the latest progress on the cabins and one of the cottages. I’ll continue to update as the work progresses.
I’d like some comments regarding the design and rendering techniques.
