After years of waiting, it finally begins! It will probably be a few months before our contractor finishes it, but I’m excited [ Edited by BeachcomberNC on 2023-09-02 08:36:40 ] |

Nice progress. Is the design sort of standard design the contractor is working from? Rather, no options for something other than white wall and ceiling finishes? Ground up builds are new to me. Curious how flexible they are. This looks like it’ll be a great space for a bar. |

Too late now, but I'd have recommended more power outlets on the walls and ceiling. That makes adding light so much easier. My curiosity is piqued, so I am looking forward to see how you deck out this blank slate! |

We told our contractor exactly what we wanted, basically a shed with a garage door, so we can open up the wall that faces the pool. Painting and decorating we’ll do ourselves. |

So the window AC unit is hideous, but we don’t want to get rid of it. So here is my solution for a window covering. I cut out a palm leaf design from thin plywood then painted it. There is less coverage at the bottom so it won’t impede airflow. |

That cutout screen turned out quite nice! That entire plastic front panel is removable on some window units. If yours is like that then I'd think you could just pull it off and spray it down with a rattle can. As long as paint doesn't intrude into the inner workings there shouldn't be an issue. |
