Now we're cooking!

One would think that an underground home would be a easy thing to decorate. But it isn’t a just a matter of picking out paint colours, wall paper, floor coverings and baseboard trim. We are considering the shape of the room, how big the boulders are, where do we place the beams and where roots might poke through the ceiling from the giant tree ‘growing’ on the roof above. The centrepiece of the suite will be an old fashioned wood stove tucked into a key hole shaped cubby in the wall. We looked at the stoves that are available commercially and instead opted to build our own, complete with custom trim that tells our unique story. This stove will not be functional as it is not needed for that purpose in this cozy underground abode. Every detail will work together to create a place where guests feel welcome and amazed.
