Meeting Notes - Clancy

Meeting Notes from architect meeting.

Attendees: Peter Millington, JB Clancy.  Peter Stames absent.

1. Revised Mudroom:  This is the biggest change.  We have returned most of the elements around the mudroom back to how they exist.  So no new exterior doors, windows, floor framing, etc.  The only change will be a cabinet above the stair to the basement.  It looks like we could have a 3’ plus deep cabinet about 4’ wide and still have headroom to the basement.
   
2.  Island:  Has been reduced to 12’ in length.  Also attached are some inspirational images for the island/table.  This shows a marble top but we have talked about a wood top.  This is the large work table in the Breakers down in Newport. 
   
3. Structural:  I spoke to Helene.  It looks like steel beams will be required for both openings.  They will fit in the sizes I have shown on the interior elevations. 
   
4. Ceiling Heights:  I sent these to you earlier but will need one final confirmation once the framing drawings are done.
   
5.  Kitchen Beams:  Will be stained Oak to match entry beams. 
   
6. Cabinets:  Will be painted.
   
7. Flooring:  Will match the rest of the house including the borders. 
   
8. Cooktop:  now 48” wide. 
   
9. Freezer: now 30” wide instead of 24”.  Cabinets would be reduced to reflect the new sizes. 
   
10. Opening in garage: is now been reduced to 4’ which is I think the size you had initially recommended.  If it is not we will stick with your original size. 
    
11. Microwave:  I am suggesting the Wolf combo convection microwave oven but still need to confirm this with Pete. 

Meeting Notes 7/16/12

Peter Millington, Peter Stames

1. Discussed masonry at mudroom door and window and determined that we would not need to do the arched soldier course above the header.
   
2. The kitchen island will be priced as white oak stained brown.
   
3. The beams in the kitchen ceiling and the timber arches will be stained white oak.
   
4. The breakfast room restoration estimate will include:
• Removing the timber and herring bone veneer to the substrate.
• Replacing the timbers with Cedar (?) and we will price infilling with herringbone brick and stucco and another panel scenario for best budget/aesthetic.
• Remove tile floor
• Remove floor framing
• Install "rat" slab and vapor barrier
• Install cross ventilation?
• Reframe and insulate for installation of new hardwood floor.
• Deck above to be ipe' on sleepers.
• Install extra scupper for water removal
• Rubber roof below sleepers,
• Install brick or wrought iron rail to bring perimeter walls to 36" minimum off decking.
  
5. We discussed location of a Laundry Room.
• Scenario 1 - Would ideally be located in the room next to the blue bathroom on the second floor.  This would entail installing a soffit above the entry door that would possibly compromise the top cabinet door but would allow us to connect into the appropriate vent.  This scenario still needs more confirmation.
• Scenario 2 - would be directly across the hall.  This is the easier of the 2 scenarios since there is venting available on that side of the house.
  
6. The chimneys are being priced as:
• Removed to below limestone.
• Limestone replaced with granite.
• Scenario 1 rebuilt in same detail.
• Scenario 2 rebuilt with simpler detail as value engineering
