Amazing crew working hard

We have had such incredible collaboration with out local community throughout this project. But they have gone well beyond any reasonable expectations in the final weeks before our on-site director, Richard, returns to the US. Everyone has been working 7 days a week for 12 or more hours.

Sheathing the roof



After many design iterations, we chose to have continuous 1x8 sheathing for reasons of structure, environmental comfort, acoustics and daylight.

Floor slabs look great!


While Richard was back in the states, the local team in Roche poured the floor slabs. They look fantastic and we are thrilled to see what was done without any oversight from our directors. He is preparing to get the team started on the roof construction.
