...remains a myth. It is a promised wonder of architectural beauty,
usability and convenience, but the incredible amount of work that needs to be done prior to the first sledgehammer swing is daunting. Plus, we'll have to move out for the approximately 6 months of clearing-to-the-walls and rebuilding everything in the kitchen, two baths, living area and bedroom. In a loft, you can't partition off work space and living space during the process.
We're really OK living in this space for now. The counter-high 'frig has made life oh so much better, and we can even sort of freeze little things briefly (yippee!). It's so much easier than renovating, that making our home homey has taken a back seat to work, life, and enjoying Zoot-cat as he approaches 19.
More when/if there's anything even vaguely interesting to report, and I suspect there will be soon....
