We have doors and windows!

Don't they look fantastic!

The upper windows in this shot don't have the glass as these windows are electronically controlled to open and close as they are too high to reach.
These windows are to allow hot air out in summer, as you all know hot air rises so it needs somewhere to escape out of. The windows down the bottom will bring in cooler air all of it creating a circulation of air through the room and house.
The study and our bedroom both have verandahs on the front now. The verandahs are angled to allow the winter sun in but will exclude the summer sun and make sure that it does not drop down right outside the window, keeping the house cooler.

This is the wonderful view out of our main doors. I can't wait to be sitting in there soaking it all up!The back of the house. To the left is our ensuite bathroom, then our WIR that is almost a bedroom in itself LOL, then the kids 3 bedrooms, the main bathroom then laundry.
The windows in the kids rooms are full length to take in the view. They also have no glass in them at the moment due to the size of them. Each window has a casment window to the side which opens and allows air in top and bottom at the same time, helping create air flow and allowing hot air to escape in summer.

The bulkhead to our kitchen has gone in too! Due to the height of the ceiling we needed to do this so that the lighting is brought down to a good height and so that we can install our rangehood over the cooking aea in the centre of the room.
