One point to highlight - the stone and cabinetry we'd chosen in laundry/powder rooms/bathroom were no longer available and we had to choose replacement. This came as a blessing in disguise, as I'd made a mistake with the feature tiles I'd chosen for our ensuite. I'd matched them to the benchtop in the laundry not the benchtop in the kitchen. If the benchtop and cabinetry hadn't no longer been available I'd be none the wiser and the feature tiles would have been done looking absolutely awful ... fortunately we picked it up as a result of the above change and were able to change to the other benchtop. Phew. Thanks to CG for coming to the rescue.

My dark laundry taken from the hallway. I plan to install a skylight. The light from the left is the glass door. Light on the right won't be visible because the roller door will be there.
just love my iphone - panorama shot of the back room. To the left is the kitchen, with the 3 stacker door going out to the alfresco, and the sliding doors on the right to the back yard

carpet rose blooming in the back yard - thought we'd lost it after the demo :)

I'm really pleased with the colour of the Hebel. There is a house round the corner from us totally rendered in a dusky pink - say no more. I thought we may have gone too dark with the Dulux caveman but it's looking really sharp, especially with the black aluminium window frames.
