Gerritt Posted April 9, 2008 Report Posted April 9, 2008 For those of you that are interested in the trades and or architecture... This is what we do... http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/sto...ory/RealEstate/ One of our homes. G
Roy Posted April 9, 2008 Report Posted April 9, 2008 Are blinds and curtains optional Gerritt? Do they get dressed and shower in the basement? Maybe your window folks installed the one-ways backwards?
Gerritt Posted April 9, 2008 Author Report Posted April 9, 2008 LOL Thank Roy.. You can find more pictures here on our website of this home... to help compliment the Globe and Mail Article. http://marcusdesignbuild.com/PhotoAlbums/Heathdale/ G
irishfield Posted April 9, 2008 Report Posted April 9, 2008 Some great stuff G. ... but not enough "Yup" in my last name to live in that.
keram Posted April 9, 2008 Report Posted April 9, 2008 I've thought that the aquarium in BPS was the big one
blaque Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 Just georgeous!! Have a bachelors in Architecture and can really appreciate the design of each and every space in the design........a true show piece, but with most contemporary designs, ya dont get that comfy cozy homey feeling from it. Which is fine........its like a show car that you just dont drive. Great for a snobby corporate cocktail party though lol. Seriously though, that is an absolutely georgeous structure!!!!!!!! And something to be gushingly proud of Gerritt.
pikehunter Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 Nice! I would have loved to have been the window rep on that project.
Gerritt Posted April 10, 2008 Author Report Posted April 10, 2008 G, who does your cabinet work? We have our own in house cabinet makers Thank you guys for the compliments on this project G
tinbanger Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 Nice work The details are very slick , excellent craftsman ship as there is no way to hide things with trim etc . tb
Headhunter Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 Spam Spam Spam Spam... lol G! As usual, incredible work done here! Has Marcus talked to Susur yet to get in again before he closes shop and heads to New York? Ya gotta get him to get you the the Mrs in there before he shuts down for good! Congrats to Marcus and the rest of the crew at MDB! HH
Wendel Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 Spectacular, but not a place I would call home... Maybe just Winter Home lol I really like all the glass though, it's beautiful. I like the concept of the room hanging out over the ravine... that would be an amazing view
Ron Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 Nice work Gerrit! A company you can be proud to work for for sure.
Casey123 Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 Very Nice, When can I move in? Any idea on a cost/sqft
Tinman Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 That place is incredible! The hvac stuff must have been a nightmare to do lol
kennyman Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 WOW! That is very cool. Especially good for those who are voyeuristically minded. Not my thing, but a piece of modern art for sure.
Gerritt Posted April 10, 2008 Author Report Posted April 10, 2008 That place is incredible! The hvac stuff must have been a nightmare to do lol Geo-Thermal G
2 tone z71 Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 Nice work Gerritt what was your specialty in the build
Gerritt Posted April 11, 2008 Author Report Posted April 11, 2008 (edited) My official title is Manager But I do get my hands dirty as well. I am a finish carpenter by trade, with cabinet making as a minor LOL... But have been involved in most aspects of building for most of my life...(I grew up in a contracting family) And was self employed for a good while... I was always told to work smart and not hard and went to school... I turned into a grunt anyways LOL I cannot do as much as I would like to anymore due to a shattered wrist and subsequent surgery... but I am still building It was a great transition for me... from someone that was in the field and knows the trades.. To someone that is now in an office directing the trades.. Like I said though.. I do like to get my hands dirty though as well But my role in this project was construction management Thanks for asking! G Edited April 11, 2008 by Gerritt
Tinman Posted April 11, 2008 Report Posted April 11, 2008 geo thermal! Very smart! and nice too! Bet the bills will be a little cheaper!
