All boxed in now! Sheetrock and cement board hides the chimney …

Tomorrow, the sheetrock gets skim coated, then we need everything tiled; we’re waiting on Tessera to come up with a design. We also need new flooring – you can see that the carpet is gone now, but we’ve still not decided a color / texture for the hardwood floor.
There’s plans too for all new furniture (Boston Interiors maybe), and a cabinet to the right of the fireplace for the stereo equipment … it’s amazing how complex this is getting (and that’s without figuring a new room lighting scheme, new window drapes, etc, etc!)
A day later, it’s all plastered and the construction holes have vanished too!

I think you plastered over the TV.
Is that the Bank Manager hiding in the corner?
Looks great, look forward to completion shots.
