Latest pics


Hervè has sent me some more photos, they are, by his admission not very good pictures but I think you can see the idea. The wood is going up, quite definitely.
This photo shows the end wall of the salon, that should be nearly all glass and you can see the protuberance around the top of the concrete. The quality is bad but the chalet looks great. I really can not wait to see it again. It is a shame I have to wait until the end of November.







This one shows the side seen from Robs Chalet, you can see the front door and the small window beside it above which are two big windows which will light the mezzanine. and to the left are two more holes for windows into the salon. The fireplace should be visible, eventually through the first of these.

Hey Richard,
Where is the Chalet, is it in Morzine? We have just got planning permission to build a 4 bed chalet in the garden of http://www.chaletlecoffy.co.uk
It makes interesting reading your project, I expect we will contract out out work completly to a local builder. Is this what you would recommend?
I am back in Morzine myself from 9th December so if the chalet is in Morzine i would be interested to look around.
Is it possible?
Ian
