I've done some work on the outside (of the newer version); basically added some roofing, painted the outside and made a few changes to the porch covers. I wanted to add some visible roof beams in the backyard roof overhang, but I couldn't find something that was basically half of what I'd used at the peak of the roof. All I can say is to just imagine something similar in that space.
I'd found a nice blue stucco texture online and used that on the exterior walls, but I'm not sure if I need to do anything more design-wise...
Should I add more outdoor lighting near the roof? I do know that I haven't done anything with furnishing the back porch, so I think that I will of course add lighting there when I get around to it, but is there anywhere else that I might have missed?
Since adding the roofing, I've taken new pictures of the upstairs hallway and my roommates' bedroom, since they're the most affected by it. In my roommates' bedroom, it's the amount of sunlight coming in through the window that has been affected.
I haven't added any lighting in the attic space yet (I'm sure that that's visible from that hallway picture), so I haven't taken a picture of that space yet.
And with having the roof the way that I do, the porch covers (pergolas, or whatever word works for those) were raised in the back so that they look like they support the one side of the roof. Since doing this, it's visible from both my roommates' youngest son's bedroom and the upstairs hallway.
I still haven't come up with an idea for what to put in the open space near the stairs...
Well, that's what I've got done so far.
