Drywall, shear walls and insulation






Some masterful tile work by Tasha, Brazilian black slate! 
God, this insulation is messy! I hated every minute of it, but can I say R25 in a 3.5" wall cavity?
I know this much insulation is overkill in California. The building inspector pointed out that I likely have PTSD from growing up in a cold climate. Too true.


Insulation cavity-fill  






More candid pictures of insulation oozing out of wall cavities.

Living room shear wall in place.

Main Bath

More main bath... and ROBERN! Love this cabinet.




Hallway, shearing in place, and in the distance, you can see the two cut-outs for the skylights.
