jumping and Hawaii vote was the teacher
through changing my living space so the
biggest thing that would be coming is
the changes and where I live that’s
whatever that’s inside come up halfway
between honorable coast the government
that was last month oh I didn’t always
live there
I used to work there Sofia the college
explanation to change your living space
because when I was working out listen to
me the view from my balcony I lived
exactly like that should be we could see
my critique of a good day but there’s
problems were the bigger the dancing
hammock not only stole from the sympathy
when I was walking upon the doors
because most doors of Japanese
apartments at 1.8 meters so that was one
problem and we had a little kid and we
have another boy client and the
there one three signs nor name of
surrounded by Florida greenery except
thought yet what to do let’s start to
because they so we started to do this if
you’re lucky when you cut the book that
so basically it was one time ago very
forward if you love the comes off like
unfortunately most times most times the
part doesn’t come off too easy most
[Music]
so convection because our partner thank
you relax the back step the camera down
the driver it’s nature’s week with Alan
get burned on fire stove forever but I
was think to do the bringing together
all smooth
we have a lot of friends who came to
give us my friends had never done
anything Bob don’t wanted to try and
that says like fun here we come from a
baby
yes please and lots of them came and
gave us help and of course my wife and I
we were involved in doing this as well
her family came out to give us some ham
so pretend more weekends but we can’t
repent to go is done time for
celebration because of that part is
finished
we not have to be there harder those
have sawdust between now when I was of
God was appears to be radiation was of
champagne or celebration will resolve
family over the hard part was
essentially finished this was one of
those thing we could relax to bring in
the professionals to do the best will do
series of yourselves
so this we got some carpenters from
you may experience that during long work
they started doing the could be
difficult sad that not too many people’s
belongs to Hoover man so again one of
the things we learned is about our own
limitations what we can’t do it what we
can’t do and just look we’re going
through some of these you can see where
they’re scooping one half I saw that
defects over the top of the other Long’s
makes that kind of sound a lot about
it’s very beautiful and it’s not trying
those cutting the energies and there’s
like a big jumble they all kept that
building the house in place in this
guard that works buildings through the
whole garden waste overly the weeks we
can see the host architecture they are
big yard that’s not the same time as
this was happening on an actual on the
foundations were people there and just
like anything businesses education house
building you need strong foundations so
we had to check the foundation to see
how deep we needed to god this book I
had a short with using the machine he
was very opportunity I want to thank to
put the concrete where the house was
going to go that situation and you can
see that work took place again four days
of the week stuff to bring all that
stuff together and eventually the
foundations were friends you could see
them all was coming up and they went
insane that’s the defendants force of
course was the government saying things
the Romani truck brought to the line we
stopped a bet with the hosts in place we
were actually able to live and hearing
stuff to get a real feel for kind of the
houses stuff to live in areas for Tom
because he is slowly but surely taking
shape again this all took place over a
number of months to finish looking
around there that was the driveway that
you saw be it might stop walking up at
the beginning you can see the houses all
there it’s not the picture now have to
state the laws to protect them from the
UV rays so once we’ve done us but maybe
the same if we want to be other savings
of those to be as dark as possible
that helps the loss of the locust
lifespan today from UV rays to be the
length to be insane to emphasize that
not too light and makes it so – what’s
of course of what we are saying and
clearly insane again slowly but surely
you can see that we’re starting to look
like the house taking shape yeah the
story was that was one of
that they wanted to use at that’s going
on over a period of time we can actually
see how to stuff for the White House to
stop to look like the light come up
that’s the price to get a 90 of the
words like that was the first stage the
first iteration and we’d almost finished
all the staining so it’s painful
celebrating yeah then we can move on to
doing the NSA partly it wouldn’t be
living their daily basis so the first
thing is to get lots of insulation this
is about physics cooling went up we
don’t want to freeze in the house lots
of insulation there that would pave go
the wires and I don’t need so there’s
nothing like slightly he was going
anywhere
the middle it involved the children to
play open five events or applause so I
can find at the bottom exciting joke
looking into inclusively Morris on the
trees opener demonic very good for great
the thing I know they’re abundant and no
problems was so we also started working
the dining area this was would be the
dining kitchen we work the bigger the
kitchen that’s us I’m the important
debate about school so a 1/2 of this is
the firebox the other half is
you can take a food talk here if you
take six pizzas ebook space on the top
of the report
very cool rustic style parties there’s a
lotta fun it seemed very rustic but also
high-tech that’s my working space both
of these monitors to go up we can turn
around they can go flower and keyboard
can be moved up I get so much work done
there because if the thing is this ain’t
exactly the way I wanted to my
specification my height is eyes it’s so
much work though they have more than I
do in any office I’ve ever worked then
and that’s because of the space where
I’m living the way I customize them so
that part of the house there is facing
final work we want to do a couple of
things we need this sunken living room
three sizes windows the blue
experimental forest and has my way to
make into my gold you can see the garden
in the forest behind them that’s in that
something grown and that’s where looks
like it winter cover destroyed and all
those glass windows skylights that
pieces self so it gets lots of passive
saw were not doing right but also what
we did have the three of them we’re not
the priority house particular place in
Japan we decided to add a lot of swords
as well some ever disappear back
accurately so that’s every stage where
we rather than the new space of the
house
what’s also on the market as well so
it’s singing through a fence around the
garden the kids wanted to be involved is
being and I think that’s what would be
which is good if you’ve got kids running
around
unfortunately the ones over in Tennessee
is happening when we give them the
so the creative process 2017 a lot of
this is specially the waters came for my
students who said they will enjoy the
classes that
gaging about chapati so going through
that process really helped me grow as a
teacher helped me assembly live in
better level surroundings so the one
thing that won’t leave you were
this is what challenging you wouldn’t
protect your life whether it’s just
changing how you been humans what you do
in your life those changes have many
things but other parts of your life
don’t wait that’s not well I’ve always
