The house needed to be big enough for a family of four and in a few years our parents. Now it's framed, sheathed and has a little siding up, but I have a lot of decisions to make. The goal is simply a modern and green family home. Have any ideas?The_Alchemisthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13594328452803479973noreply@blogger.comBlogger11100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4952167190560557008.post-31577100697756276582008-01-19T17:05:00.000-08:002008-01-19T17:15:51.326-08:00As it turns out, winter only last a few months. So soon me excuse will be leaving me.

I'm planning 1/8 inch reveals horizontally and vertically. Still going back and forth on using <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Vaproshield</span> UV tape behind the exposures or using thin strips of galvanized metal over the furring strips along the entire reveal. <br /><br />I am now taking suggestions, comments and even criticism.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4952167190560557008-3157710069775627658?l=sweatalchemy.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>The_Alchemisthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13594328452803479973noreply@blogger.com1
