Box 2 Insulated & Wall Panels Installed!




Things are really starting to take shape! Since insulating Ark 160B the contrast between the two containers is striking! Ark 160A's bare corrugated steel just bakes in the Sun and you can feel the heat radiating off the walls and ceiling. But since we fully insulated 160B that radiant heat has effectively been suppressed. That combined with her two new windows and it is possible to find relief from the hot Summer Sun sitting inside! Its also noticeably quieter.


We still need to finish all the trim and base board wood work. Very soon we'll be laying the Marble tile and Parque floor. Jen painted her bi-fold doors to seperate the "Utility Room" from the "Studio" space. The closer we get to completeing this ARK160B Prototype the more anxious I become to see both finished. But its good to see some finer details getting set into place...
