Sustainability in design: the future of net zero building

Supposedly, you’re not supposed to make the toilet the first thing visible, but I think I just consider it convenient, really..

We just spread a little bit on the edges of the wood with a piece of cardboard and popped it into place!.I finished up with a nice bead of caulk over the whole area..

Instead of a weird dark gap, it’s looks nice and clean!We also fitted a little piece of wood over the little trench in the ceiling where the wires were.Again, adhesive is great for this because you don’t want to risk having a nail or a screw slip even a fraction of an inch in a situation where you’re so close to wires!.

Of course we really (really really) need to get those ceilings painted once all of these little finishing touches are done on the room!So here’s how the room looks now with the trim at the top of the cabinets all finished up!

We added in another thin moulding right where the thicker piece meets up with the ceiling, again reused from the original trim in the room, to finish things up.. Here’s that “before” shot again!.

You can see we’ve made a few other changes in the room too.Lamps and Lamp Shades: Threshold at Target.
