The diagram was drawn in Adobe Illustrator, and took very little time. It is an invaluable tool to use for simple layouts like this - and the print out makes for a great document to have on the work site. I am a firm believer in mock-up and this is as close to a mock-up as I can get. <br /><br />The outside pieces are going to be quarter sawn oak as well. <br /><br />The “dead space” is there because of fire code - and to make room for ducting, and because sometimes, dead space results in something looking better in the end. I don’t mind giving up the floor space if the end result is worth it.Konradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03975387560456769892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293643013821611045.post-27358923462416875592009-10-29T10:48:23.362-05:002009-10-29T10:48:23.362-05:00That Herringbone diagram hurts my eyes.

I'm a bit surprised you went through the work of setting up that diagram.<br /><br />Are the outside pieces going to be oak also, or a contrasting colour?<br /><br />And I'm late to the blog so I hope this wasn't covered before... the firewood box looks very cool, but I'm mystified at why you're boxing in all the rest of that "dead" space in the corner? I know you need clearance for the ducts, but there is still lots of space -- no built in bookcase/shelves going in there?<br /><br />best,<br />Art MulderArthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13852717228144432067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293643013821611045.post-58435584673588836502009-10-26T18:14:23.989-05:002009-10-26T18:14:23.989-05:00Jameel,

If we didn’t have stuff like this - our brains would explode. <br /><br />Funny thing... already have the Persian carpet - bought it for the space before we started:) Does this means I have it really bad?<br /><br />Cheers,<br />KonradKonradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03975387560456769892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293643013821611045.post-26337176063033293542009-10-26T17:50:36.781-05:002009-10-26T17:50:36.781-05:00Is there a place where people like us can get help...Is there a place where people like us can get help?
