Playhouse Construction

Playhouse Construction

The playhouse is finally done. The landscaping is in, the lighting is installed, and the roof is secure. It took a week longer than I expected to get all the details right, but my clients (the girls) are happy with the result. It is also very green, with a solar lighting system, a native plant butterfly garden, 30% re-used wood, and 100% of all construction waste diverted from the landfill. I am sure we will add more features as time goes on and certainly the butterfly garden will grow in population, but let me know what you think of the project so far.
