Very Cool Tile for Showers

Hi Guys - This is actually a form of tile. It comes in units that interdigitate and look very much like an extreamly expensive custom installation. I think this would look great in your shower stalls, bathrooms or even on certain access walls...

Receipt 2009_07_28

Hi Guys - We had to purchase additional 3X3 tubos and 2X2 tubos for the balconies. This charge is for 407,391 colones which is approximately $702.40.

We put these charges on the credit card because Maxi does not give a discount for cash.

Hi Guys - This is for 1X3 and 2X2 tubos for the kitchen floor and the railings..

Main Bedroom Walls

Hi Guys - To continue the discussion on the main bedroom windows...

Personally, I really love this door/window system that you guys found. I think it is very classy and lovely the way the windows are not even and the sliding door is in the middle. I did some thinking over the weekend and if you would like, we can recreate this widow/door design almost exactly.

We would need to add a small French Balcony to the exterior of the sliding glass doors to keep little ones from falling out...

On the front bedroom, we could even add stairs down to the garden area as the contour of the land would permit that...

Villa Roca Bathroom

Hi Guys - This is the bathroom at Villa Roca Resort in Manuel Antonio. I think it is simply lovely!

They used metal tubos to frame/create this sink unit, then clad the metal frame in these very nice 4X4 ceramic tiles.

This is exactly what I am going to be making for your kitchen and bathroom cabinets. I will be agumenting the design by adding shelving to the cabinets and also adding nice slatted wooden doors similar to the ones on our furniture pieces from Sarchi (I uploaded photos of the wooden slat doors in the past).

French Balcony Idea?

Hi Guys - This is a photo of the bedroom nearest our casita, as taken from the hallway.

Remember I uploaded to this blog a photo of the french balcony of our condo in San Jose. I need to know fairly soon how you would like to treat the main openings of the two bedrooms. We can doo what ever you guys want. We could even do a combination of windows and sliders...
