Progress update and mood boarding!

We have more progress! Actually, we have a mess that's what we have... Mess everywhere ha ha! It's been a busy couple of weeks at our place with our god sons visiting from Melbourne, our huge gum tree being removed from the backyard, demolition being completed, and the rebuild beginning. 

The weather wasn't in our favor for the first week of demolition and our site turned into a mud pit. Our poor contractors were out there in the slush and rain jackhammering up concrete, digging trenches and putting together frames. Then we had the team from Mr Stumpy turn up to cut down a giant dead gumtree from the back corner of our block. Lucky they were strapped into their harnesses because the wind was ripping through them up there. 

So next stage is framing and trusses and while we wait for that we are putting together some mood boards for the kitchen and ensuite to help with selections. Our theme is contemporary with natural elements. I've taken some inspiration from becmarksthespot blog and custom homes Instagram pics. 

This is what we have come up with... 

White Stone benchtops, 

Natural timber feature doors paired with white cabinets and black back panels

Dark timber floors. 

Layout similar to this with the sink under the bifold windows to the right. I like how the cabinetry elongates both length and height. The bulk head really finishes this space and of course I get my three seater breakfast bar! Let's hope it's possible. 

I'd like to do a green wall filled with herbs and I've seen some really cool indoor hanging displays that I would love to incorporate. If you have seen some at reasonable prices let me know where I can get my hands on them!
