Initial concept drawings





Having been drawing this house for the last five years, it was time to involve someone who knows what they are doing. Councils are a bit funny about receiving house plans on napkins and bits of old newspaper. So we talked to Emma Scragg. Emma has worked with Wild Mountains before and we are glad to have her on board for this project. After some discussion she has come up with some initial elevations. Although at this stage there are a lot of variables, she kindly pushed on with what little updated information we have given her in order for us to show a prospective engineer the ideas we have.
There will be changes but these drawings can give an idea of what it is we are going to build. My continued thanks go to Emma in working with us on this project for Wild Mountains, as I am sure I am not your average client and she is very patient with my erratic terminology use and variable understandings. I think she does well not to wince as I refer to building elements as thingys or, that bit that needs to go under there. I am constantly frustrated by my inability to draw what I can see in my head, so I am always grateful to have Emma able to create the way she does.

Next will be a meeting with the engineer to see if he wants to work on the project and if he is suitable for what we need.
