Juliet balconies

The final element of our facade was installed this week: the Juliet balconies.

Or perhaps more accurately, the Juliet balustrades. There is no balcony in any way shape or form. They are a purely decorative balustrade. But they are a decorative addition that took Annie’s breath away.

She absolutely loves them.

Hopefully the dark of the balustrades will go nicely with our soon-to-be black front door.

The other detail that has changed was the colour of the render. I had initially thought that the colour we had had up until this week was Dune (the colour we had chosen). But perhaps that was only one coat of Dune over a white undercoat and therefore was literally a pale limitation of what Dune actually looks like.

Irrespective of which colour is actually Dune, I am digging this latest shade and look forward to the rest of the facade being completed.

Hopefully we won’t have to wait long for that.
