Peter and Nong in Kuching

Peter and his Thai architect Nong were in Kuching for three days and visited the property to survey and take site measurements.

Here are some photos from the trip ...

Designs in Progress

Over the past few months, we have been liaising with Peter of Magnusprojects on the design of the new house. After many iterations, we have agreed on a rough plan and Peter has rendered several perspectives for us to view.

Here are some samples ...

First we have the front view, showing the main entrance. The car porch is located on the right side.

The next two pictures show the back view of the house, one by day and the other in the evening.

Then the dining area with the high ceiling.

Finally the living area. No, I'm not that much of a monarchist. That was one of Peter's designers' idea and the picture will definitely not be of Liz  :-)

That's it for now. More photos later.
