Larry is the man, and his house is simply baller!!! Well done!!
It really says something about the state of the hvac industry when you have to do it yourself to get a good install.
I have a close friend that’s a partner in an HVAC business. I asked him a year ago what he knew about Manual J calculations and he looked at me like I had something growing out of my head. I shared a couple of Matt’s videos with ERV and make up air, and his reply was “Yeah, nobody does that nor do they know how”. It’s maddening that todays tradesmen aren’t up’ing their game with new, and a lot more energy efficient, technology.
I hate when government gets involved but this is one time I wish they would force the building industry to mandate these technologies and building methods. If they did, maybe they would back off the electric car push! Just think of the reduced energy consumption if every new house were built like this.
I want someone to look at me like Matt Risinger looks at someone who one-upped his hot water room consultation
Larry indeed one-upped me!
Hahaha for real!
Bravo.
Alright..... to pull a 1 ACH50 on the first house he has ever built is MASSIVELY impressive!!! I feel like we need a couple more updates on this build...
I think the most impressive part is he managed to pull a 1 ACH-50 with a fireplace.
@@Ilove3SGTE you don’t think they taped off the fireplace for the test? I would assume you couldn’t get that tight with one otherwise.
@@Isaacmantx of corrse you could tape it off (I would call that cheating). There should dampers inside the flue. I have also seen doors that go on the front of the fire place that can air seal fairly well. Your probably right though they probably wouldn't have gotten that low without taping it off.
This encapsulates what it means to be a true engineer. Taking the time to work the details and understand what is truly important, and then slogging through all of the hard work to help craftsmen build a beautiful product. Bravo Larry.
The owner is legit! Wonder what his networking / piping / AV will look like. Do a follow up video on this house please!
Admitting to what you don't know is very top notch and asking people that do. Also willing to learn and do it himself. in general this is the kind of person you want to work for / with in any field. did het a chuckle when he water cut the plywood, was thinking just rip it quick with the table saw and hit is with the hole saw. Guess is you got use it lol
@@-BigTMoney- I didn't even know you could water jet plywood. Thought he meant laser cut or cnc til they said water jet a couple more times 😮
You can tell the owner is an engineer, tried to plan for everything and brought consultant in. Very impressive
certainly doesn't understand modern glass technology, single pane glazing, oy vey
@@cengeb he specifically said that for windows the goal was longevity and architectural value, not efficiency. Single (r1), double (r3) or triple pane(r5) windows are really bad at insulation anyway compared to a standard wall (r20) so picking a single pane window that will last forever is not the worst.
@@moutrap Hurricane rating on his home made stuff? No building codes in La.? Don't they get LOTS of hurricane hits every year, yet no hurricane building codes? Heck even N.Y. and N.J. shore lines have hurricane building mandates
@@moutrap Also then why are they worried about sealing small wall penetrations, for efficiency, while having so much sq. footage of cheap poorly insulated glazing, makes ZERO sense in new buildings
@@cengeb You can engineer (use software) to estimate the losses and plan around them; more insulation to compensate for more windows, larger windows, etc. even good windows are poorly insulated; you NEED to make sure they do not leak (even better, do not open) and the rest you can engineer (around up to a point) and then know your operating costs before building.
This man is an inspiration for all of the people who want to overkill their homes!
I am not sure why they used a water jet, but I could see myself using a hole saw to do the same thing. This allows clarity later when your are fixing your HVAC system. I used to hear programmers say the same thing about documenting code. The gains in usable space in the attic alone is well worth it. Now imagine having to find out why the air flow in the dining room is not good. I can run every inch of the path. We are talking about a house that can been there 100 years from now.
@@charlesrichardson8635 heh, sure, but when you own a fabrication company with a water jet machine of course you’re going to use your toys.
@@cysco5598 Okay, the Toys angle. I would do it then in a heart beat! That's why we have toys!
Total overkill
Even if you want to overkill you still run up against the tradespeople who just want to do what they've always done and get out and on to their next job. It's a challenge to find workers who will share your vision and have the know-how to implement it.
I did something similar to those plywood "templates" for the Zehnder hoses - but smaller and for electrical wires, with holes spaced according to the electrical code requirements. I installed home-run wiring and did not want to drill a lot of holes in the floor joists, so I suspended the plywood plates next to the main steel support beam, running the length of the house. This was 30 years ago. When he saw the work, the inspector gave an instant pass and said he should take photos to show the folks back in the office.
Interesting solution. Did you run the wiring in conduit also?
@@aayotechnology In the equipment room yes, but not for the main run down the length of the house which was tucked in between the steel beam and the heating plenum. The basement was nine feet high. I did run empty conduit for future networking wires.
This room sized shower pan MAKES SENSE! I have always thought folks were crazy to have their water heater in the attic or any upstairs area above living spaces. All I could ever invision was, 'what about a catastrophic failure". This is how all of them should be done. Seems so far like this guy thought of everything!
I’d recommend adding a water sensor to the kitchen floor drain. Send a signal to a ball valve solenoid to automatically cut the water supply to the house.
I have a sensor under the washer, fridge, dishwasher that does that. I’ve also got a car remote that can cut the water using the same valve. Useful when I need to do plumbing work or my daughter has been in the shower too long.
Matt. On the final visit, let Larry finish the video. He deserves it. He has from now to next summer to practice. 😂
Onnnn the build show.
Dishwasher and washing machines are the 2 appliances that we (I) see most that fails and end up repairing and fixing afterwards. Love this idea, like Matt’s house, where you start including drain pans in the buildout. Might not ever use, but if you need it, you have it; and that’s better than fixing a water damaged home; as that’s never fun.
Good idea guys👍🏻👍🏻
My neighbor had to redo the entire basement because of a leaking dishwasher. I suggested that a drain pan be installed to keep that from happening again.
I still can’t find a definite answer as to where to terminate these drains. Otherwise I think it is a great idea.
@@kurtvonfricken6829 around here we always just take them straight outside to ground level and put a screen over them so Critters can't crawl in. Essentially they will never see water unless there's a catastrophic failure so they don't really need a lot of Plumbing attention.
@@JimDean002 Wouldn't that hurt your air tightness if you didn't have some sort of trap on them? If there's a trap it can dry out, so you have to have something drain through them to keep the trap wet.
Dang. It is not often that I’m glued to anything on the tv but this was beautiful to watch. I’ve been watching Matt’s videos for years and have been taking notes and saving videos of particular interest and this one for sure is up top for me. I would like to eventually build an ICF home with a useable attic. Larry’s will be my benchmark. If he had a MasterClass on his build, I would happily pay for it. I really hope there’s more video content on this build. I don’t care so much for the designs for the millwork or anything because that’s subjective, but for things like the piping, electric, and HVAC. His level of detail makes me very happy.
I love that attic lighting with the white foamed sides. It's beautiful.
"Getting the Surveyor to actually show up was by far the hardest part."
Most civil survey companies have been super booked up this last year
He took it to an 11 for sure. Matt now needs to incorporate the routing of the ducts with those templates/guides. A genius idea.
I live in Baton Rouge and have passed by this house numerous times. Always thought to myself, dang that place looks really well built, now I know just how well. 😃
"Will Larry be my Dad?" WOW! The thought and detail in that home. Impressive!
Definitely an engineer building his dream house. Most definitely a millionaire, he has spared no expense.
Oh, he’s spent way more than a million. And how did he get the $ to build his house? He provided engineering services to hundreds of happy clients.
yea its a shame that 99% of people can't build homes with these kind of details .
@@Noold It's a shame that at least 40% of people can't build homes of any kind.
@@kevinholmes1048 it's a shame that in this day and age nobody wants to educate themselves on what would make a greater and better built home! I'm fairly still young and have younger friends to boot. 90% of them don't even want a home oh no. They want to live in apartments for the rest of their lives :/
This is a 2M house easy. It’s easy to build so well when you can spend that much
Your attention to detail, and courage to try new things, says a lot about what kind of engineer you must be. And your test scores back it up. As someone that's built homes and metal buildings for forty years, I would be honored to have you on my team. Well done Larry.
Floor drains are pretty common in some countries. It seems so obvious when you've lived in a house that has them. Certainly makes cleanup a breeze. Hose down the floor and squeegee into the hole. Done.
This is everything I would have expected a GC to do in his own home and more.
Would like to see more videos of this house.
As an engineer AND a builder myself...this guy is really doing an excellent job....as you and Brent both noted several times. Good for him...he is having fun and spending his own money doing it and truly understands the value of building a home that will withstand the test of time. I grew up in a house that was originally built in 1768. My parents always understood that they were just caretakers of the home...I think we were only the 5th family to live in the house....and if they continued to maintain and improve the home in ways that paid respect to the original build quality and aesthetic than they were doing so for the next 200 years that the home would stand. I am certain this homeowner has the same sense of the project...that he wants to create a home that can live thru the ages! Kudos to him!!
love the detail of "gluing" possible points of ingress with closed cell foam, and then using lower cost and voc open cell foam to insulate. and the comments about people in the market today forgetting the importance of quality and products that last a long time. disposable thinking from the 1950s and 1960s really needs to go.
That’s great, but if you did that (build to this quality) few people could afford to buy a home. Porsche makes the best cars, not a Japanese company. But most people can’t afford a Porsche, they cost too much to make. The market needs an option at every price point. That’s how it’s going to be until things become affordable well into the future.
@@jonathanzappala Totally understand your point but these days any house can be well built with proper attention to a detail. Issue is that there is no pride in craftsmanship. Japanese company makes good car as well, very reliable and efficient and no, it doesn't need to go 300km. In terms of houses, these days, any house can have tight envelope and it doesn't have to go the extent some of the custom houses go. Here in Canada, a tradesman want's $85/h and that's just to slam something together. That's what makes houses expensive and people can't afford them. I have nothing against them wanting $85/h but then also provide workmanship worth of that. It is complex subject and it doesn't have to be like that. As Larry said in the video, "People (everyone) has to start thinking differently"
@@timberwolf9363 You have absolutely identified the NUMBER ONE issue in the world today, and that is "how do you motivate people?". Money is a form of reward, but recognition amongst peers, love of craft, reincarnation in the form of multigenerational monument building can be even more of a motivation.
@@jonathanzappala Need you to define "best"... and then we can argue whether a Porsche 911 is better than a Skyline.
@@deanwoodward8026 touché haha. You got me with that one. They don’t build porsche engines in a dust free room.
13:00 an engineer calling a water heater a “hot water heater” I love it!!
I know your show is called "The Bulid Show" but I would really like to see the final result on some of these. We always get to see where it's going, but we never get to see where it finishes.
This is such a phenomenal home with awesome details
Definitely come back and show this house when its finish
Wow that drain is smart. I will definitely use that trick when building my own house. You could negotiate your insurance better with a system like that.
wanna bet not, not proven, has no previous specs that proved it works....
@@cengeb b r u h. It’s code in Europe. For some dumb reason we like paying crazy insurance premiums and building bad houses that don’t last.
@@markm0000 We make homes out of dead trees, while Europe has homes 700 years old, I know someone from Italy, house is still there he was born in, and it's now over 700 years old, and occupied...
What type of trap and where do they drain to is always my question.
@@kurtvonfricken6829 If he wanted it done really correctly, tile floor like a commercial kitchen with drains in floor always exposed..like commercial restaurants used everyday and last for decades and decades, if he has to remodel this in 20 years, it's not done properly from the start....the 100 year door is nonsense...the low tech glazing is from 100 years ago, they said it wrong.
Well … Larry and Matt … you are two guys I would consult/hire without hesitation as advisors/experts/thinkers/planners‼️
😎👍🏻
@Matt: What I want to see, on top of this already impressive engineering, is how we deal with foundation slab support and wastewater plumbing access decades in the future. With ground shift and tree roots, addressing these now would make this much closer to the ultimate "100-year home." Love the Video! Cheers from North Texas!
I love organized computer network cabling and this is so nice.
@Richard Cranium Right at the beginning there’s a clip with very neatly managed power cables. Also these organizer cards to keep the hoses in order is exactly the same idea like bundles of networking cables routed on trays in server rooms.
Wow! I watched the segment with a big grin on my face.
Engineers know how to follow instructions - and how to write instructions when it’s time to innovate.
I’ll bet Larry will be cooking in that kitchen. Just follow the darn recipe!
I smiled through this entire video. Doesn't get any better than this. Thanks for sharing and let's all be a little more like Larry. Awesome!
Impressed. As another engineer, I see he has the same do it right the first time work ethic. Spend money where required and save where you can. One hundred year build quality says it all. Nice walk through review.
Hydrogen sulfide gas from those floor drains can be mitigated by pouring an oil into the floor drains. Else you'll get sewer gases seeping into the house after the water in the p-traps evaporate.
Hopefully he thought about that and used back flow prevention
Gonna need to see more of Larry's million-dollar attic! Exception build! Looking forward to seeing more of the architecture and design.
Larry, very impressive attention to detail. I drive two days just to spend a day walking through your build. Thanks Matt for yet another awesome show.
That hose bib setup is sweeeet!!!!
What an absolutely fantastic home. I love the attention to detail and craftsmanship. This house will certainly last many many generations.
I would love to see not only a finish video but maybe one or two more at mid points. Just before drywall for example where we can see all the finished plumbing.
That attic is spectacular. Inspirational. Well done, Larry!!
If missed it, don’t think I did, but gotta show Larry’s Server room for all his Tech. That’s one thing with older homes, they don’t have a dedicated Server room for modems, routers, computers running IoT, phone systems, firewalls, switches, etc etc….and nowadays; having such a dedicated room built into the plans of a new home is pretty much as important as a kitchen, bathroom, and laundry area; just do it, so not trying to run things afterwards and find a “place” for all those electronic devices that “runs” our lives now.
So, just gotta see Larry’s and if he doesn’t have fiber, will be shocked; unless not available quite yet in his area😉
This was a good one!
The temporary a.c. & dehumidification is exactly what we do on the custom homes we work in here in S. FL. Very rare for us to not have full blown temp a.c. in them. Needs to be in for all the millwork etc + acclimitizing the house in general as Mr. Larry mentioned. An added by product ppl don't think about, is production usually increases too.
All.of which being said. He must have some crap a.c. contractors around him if they couldn't wrap their heads around that system. He did a damn good job as a homeowner/builder that's for sure.
Genius ideas Larry. You learned from Matt and then used your engineering mindset to level a notch or two. My Electrical Engineer dad drilled into me, “There’s two ways to do things. You either do it right, or you do it over.” Larry and Matt, you’re my heroes for being willing to share how we should be building!
When I was a kid, I lived in a house in Germany that had an indoor pool, and the mechanical room was 4x4 meters, built with a terra cotta floor and tiles up about half a meter on the walls, following the way the wineries in the area built their processing rooms. The center of the room had a 20cm drain.
Getting a 1 unfinished, wild. That just shows you how much that aerobarrier REALLY does.
Incredible build. And yeah you don't need high static if your duct design, filtration and installation are proper. Air is fluid and if you design your system with that in mind it all works out beautifully.
man, what a guy Larry is! forward-thinking, over-engineering, do it right the first time outlook points to a craftsman who takes a lot of pride in his projects who also has the wherewithal and skills to get it done!
I hope he added extra blocking thought the house. Like on top of the head of all the windows and maybe 6" out on each side so you can just mount curtains easy, above fire places for the mantel and TVs, extra in the kitchen in case you want to change out cabinets, in the shower bath so there is no play with the spigot or shower heads. a lot easier to do it now with he walls open and it will help future proof your house and give you more options for minimal cat now
WOW! WOW! And triple WOW! I can't wait to see the finished product. Hopefully we will. I am not a builder, but I plan on building a custom home next year and I have been watching your videos for the last 2 years using your and now, the Build Show Network guys to put together everything I need to pick my builder and put together what I want as my forever home so we can put together a team. I noticed what he noticed when it comes to organizing the tubes and had pretty much the same ideal. I hope he looks into patenting that only because if he doesn't someone else will. Still leaves the do - it-your-self folks a great ideal. He had many great ideals esp. if you have the money to do it. Hope it inspires others to come up with better and maybe cheaper ideals. This is part of what this is all about isn't it? Congratulations on another great video and a very informative year. God bless and keep up the good work!
Drain under sleeper floor seems like terrible idea. Now you have water trapped under floor with no way to properly dry especially considering it’s not sloped. Should have just put in drain pans with individual drain lines. This is typical engineer overthinking problems.
Can’t wait to see more of this project!
This is impressive building geek stuff, doing a great job of showing materials and energy considerations for planning to build residential housing. Most of the featured systems and technology are unapproachable / not affordable for 99.99% of the population at large. Real progress in building houses will include: 1. Not harvesting and transporting exotic hardwoods; 2. Using farmable and oxygen-producing sustainable materials (i.e., bamboo); 3. Simple, breathable (dry-to-exterior) envelope systems with minimal use of petrochemical pollutants; 4. Emphasis on simple building methods that take advantage of local materials as much as possible and avoid overly complicated and expensive maintenance & repair processes.
100% agreed. I really hope these topics you mention will be addressed on Matt’s channel in the future! Beyond the geeky, cool tech and latest materials he should be talking about embodied carbon, life cycle analysis(ie living building challenge), etc. It’s a great start that Matt mentions the importance of passive house but that’s just a start into the sustainability of residential construction.
While, I agree, this home is likely 2x the cost it would have been for a 'normal' home, one could argue this is a money no object home and if they ever had to sell it, I wonder if a new buyer will care even for a second that it cost 2x more to build and the asking price than the comps in the area. I.E if the area comps are $300 sq/ft and this house is 5k sqft, then comp is $1.5mil, so I don't know if 3mil price tag will fly.. And to the subject of using local and renewable materials... that's fine, but 9 out of 10 times, it will be costlier to buy materials and harder to find people who can build using them... Unfortunately, the price of being good is high.
We can produce high tier hardwoods in this country (growing slow in dry areas, reducing the moisture content in the wood to high specs), but the independent family owned mills that did it all went out of business. Now it’s all about fast and cheap wood going overseas to China or to Home Depots’ and Lowes’ around the country. Todays domestic “high grade” wood is not the same as it once was. The highest tier you’d find at a Home Depot or in spec homes is incredibly low grade despite being “graded” high.
Larry is doing an absolutely amazing job!! I can’t wait to see his home finished with final blower door results and the tour.
What an IMPRESSIVE house. Loved it! Question though, instead of everything he did in the kitchen to control a "possible" water catastrophe , would it not have been simpler to install some flow rate shut off type devices?
Merry Christmas everyone 🎅
Wait... was that a hot water heater with a heat pump!?! Wow this was a fascinating build. Thanks so much for sharing!🤩
I fell in love with the Aquor products about 3 years ago. Highly recommend. I am finally at the point of remodeling the house and landscaping and I absolutely need to know where Larry had to hose bib posts designed. Thank you in advance.
This is destined to be a generational home that will be passed down for several centuries. Fine job!
Air BnB in 3 years
WOW, I hope you go back a few times, and especially after they finish. Thanks Matt.
We lived in various countries on foreign work assignments. All of the apartments we rented had floor drains built in to kitchens and bathrooms in case of any appliance or fixture leaks that inevitably do occur. We did have a few leaks but never any floods. We did not experience a house flood until coming home to USA. Floor drains are part of building codes in other parts of the world. Glad to see them beginning to take hold here in the USA.
Those concrete columns are IMPRESSIVE! 👌
Dang... Well done guys!!
Wonderfully designed and implemented across so many different domains. Loved the alumni flashing table as simple but brilliant.
You guys are "next level".. Nice job Larry & Matt
Wonderful wonderful video Matt !!
See Matt, you inspire, and keep all us older builders up to date brother...Thank you!
Wow that attic is eye candy. I've always imagined the best install bc everything I see now days is a mess. This is better than I ever envisioned. Wow. Nice work!! And thanks for showing us something we can all strive to achieve. Cheers
Wow, so jealous!
Put a BIG one-way valve on your kitchen-pan drain pipe, brother.
Love your dedication to timeless quality and engineering that will generate smiles in your family for, well, generations…if they follow your example. Way to go, Dad!
Damn smart, I like the way he thinks forward
💪🏾🧠
I love it when Brent Hull makes an appearance.
Me too! His knowledge is amazing!
This is what I have been preaching to builders here in Canada to do. I have built several like this in Scandinavia.
We have gone one up on this, we used "pipe in pipe" for water supplies and all electrical wires in conduits.
Good job Larry, love seeing that you are using common sense
But, single-glazed, instead of HR++ or HR+++?!??
Can't wait to design and build my own house too! I love designing small stuff for my own needs like Larry did with the hose. Total engineering move!
This is a very impressive house.
I was ready to hate this house, but it is incredible. Especially love the attic.
I am in absolute awe of it. Beautiful job from start to finish!
I love this video!!! The products used in this house are amazing!! I like the way engineers think so when an engineer is inspired by an innovative builder this house is what is created!!!’
This has to be my favorite video. I get a home builder showing you new stuff.....but a non builder learning soooo many things to impress us all. Great job there!!!
This man is an inspiration to everybody that wants a home built Risinger-style!
Nothing else to say but…Awesome, what an amazing build. One of the best on this channel.
I’m towards New Orleans a little, I’m about to start a new personal home build myself and am using way to much info from Matt on this up coming project. This house and quality of Larry is amazing. Good job sir!
WOW!!! This build is SO SMART and well done!
very cool to hear people building quality sapele "100 year" doors and windows. at the end you could probably still reuse it to build a memory chest or some interior boatwork or something!
Next owner will reap all those windows and doors in 10-15 years and replace them with vacuum glass windows and doors what a waste of money so shallow thinking
@@andreycham4797 yupper, really DUMB to be using single pane glazing in 2021, "engineer", but doesn't understand glass technology is so improved, even the SUN GLASS windows from Andersen are much better than just 20 years ago, new thin film coatings, block even more infra red and UV, while letting in much more visible light....in a hot region to use single pane glazing is idiotic, the sq ft area of all that glass, might as well live them all open...not smart at all. Cardinal glass makes most of the glazing and double pane low e stuff for andersen and lots of others, glass matters, 100 year old door, riiiight, with glass technology FROM 100 years ago..I had my first Andersen casement installed 27 years ago, I replaced all 31 SASHES 2 years ago,, to Sun glass low e4(andersen marketing) all the Andersen frames are fine, just changed out 31 sashes, with latest low e SUN GLASS, fantastic how it blocks the intense direct summer sun, while allowing lots of visible light. Good for another 30 years....GLASS MATTERS. windowparts.com an Andersen distributor, great prices prompt delivery from the Andersen Warehouse. Got 3 delivery for a total of 31 sashes, I ordered in batches cus i had no place to store em all at once, all the previous hardware was in perfect shape to install on the new sashes,, until I changed out several ordered another batch FREE SHIPPING...not one broken piece of all 31 arrived in perfect shape...
@@cengeb I am doing a remodel on a foreclosure and I had to replace few broken glass with thiker sashes, they gave me locking plastic strips from Andersen so I could put thicker sashes in their windows. My plan is to insulate the house very well and to install a heat pump after that I would replace other thin sashes with vacuum glass from China, if they become available for resanable price
I don’t know much about any of y’all’s comments… but I had to cringe a bit here:
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sapele
I keep seeing vulnerable trees used in “high performance” construction and it’s pretty ironic considering the supposed sustainability
@@timgleason2527 yup, all hypocrisy
I can see why this guy can afford such an amazing house.
Larry might be the best builder out there. Amazing
Impressive project. This guy is detail oriented and talented for sure
Larry, make sure you have easy access to drain to allow maintenance in case P trap is sucked dry or you get unusual orders coming from drain.
They make one way traps now!
THIS!!! THIS is EXACTLY what EVERY builder should have as standard operating procedure. I'm an engineer also, and like to think I could come up with something like this, but WOW! What an inspired labor of love. Kudos Larry on an exceptional project. I'm very much interested in another update video (or two). So impressive.
Colleges need to require engineers or architecture students to do internships in the field as a laborer for their respective disciplines. I have done too many residential projects where structural engineers over spec materials, or place details that do not follow common building practices mainly when it comes to framing. The best engineers that I have worked with are the ones who started off as laborers in the field then attended college afterwards to pursue their engineering degrees. Arch/Structural disciplines should be required to do 3 months as field laborers in framing, or concrete. For civil engineers field tech for surveying, or civil site work either commercial or residential. For MEP the should require 3 months field experience helping a plumber, electrician.
Been watching The Build Show for a long time and love it. But this is so inspiring to see. Awesome job!
Matt geekin out in the Attic. Gold!
Fascinating house...lots of great design and detail thinking and craftsmanship. Thank you.
10:32 IMO as a 25+ contractor/builder in the trades….,that’s the “key”…..
DETAILS! IS WHAT “MAKES” or breaks a project. When all those details align when things are finished, a great house/building; becomes a SUPER EPYC AWESOME finished project; and ppl DO NOTICE the “details”👍🏻👍🏻
Gorgeous house and I’d be 100% proud to be working on this project, let alone the designer/architect; and finally the owner living in it. Congrats, I can “see” the finished work, but doesn’t mean still wouldn’t mind “watching that video” when it’s complete next summer😉
Cheers👍🏻✌🏻
Dedicated unit for the bedroom,,, nice to have big budget… the hvac stuff in this house is amazing
This was absolutely incredible! Awesome job, Larry. Your doing great things Matt. Thanks for all the info!
That porch!!! 🥰
This guy is my hero.
Very Professional !
Master Craftsman! Art and elegance providing form and function. I take a knee in the presence of genius with purpose.
