ORIGINAL DESIGN.

When we first approached this project, we were given a basic design that had already been completed by a local architect here in Greensboro, Frank Cheney.

Don't let this little head start lead you to believe that we had it easy. Just because we had the bones, doesn't mean that there was life. It was actually even more difficult to take a preexisting design and build on it than it would have been to begin from scratch.

Also, although we were given the basic bones of the design, there were still many things to be considered and details that had to be worked out. Measurements had to be investigated and finalized, joinery had to be considered, and hardware decisions had to be made.


Here is a photo of the basic design that we received on day one from Frank Cheney and his associate:
