Disclaimers

  • This blog is not a “how-to” . It’s merely the logbook of our remodeling experience.
  • I do not pretend to know what I’m doing. As a matter of fact, I could barely hold a hammer when all this started…
  • This doesn’t pretend to be an Eichler restoration. Just a cheap (hmmm… all this is relative…) remodel, with an effort to respect the original contemporary lines and bring back some modernism in the house. The house had lost most of its Eichler characteristics (such as the famous mahogany panels that had been spray-painted in a creamy color, like everything else) when we got it and restoring them would have been too difficult and costly.
  • This blog is not entirely live. It’s really a travel back in time.
