Tile and questions


view from tv/ desk area looking out to the wild..notice pattern of tiles
steve and doug are getting window quotes and couldnt recall what we decided on this window when you come mid way up stairs..One window whole or a lil slider like third of way from bottom for ventalation...I thought we decided one piece? what do you guys think?
Living room /dining room tile layed..
The roofing is officially fiinished
Walls master bedroom tile job
Farrars bedroom tiled...the 2 colors you see on the wall or the sample names you gave me to get..I know the photo dosent real serve justice as the colors arent as true in person and the photo is a lil drk..in person the green on the left is a tad bit drker than it looks like in the photo and i was kinda leaning towards that color more ..thats just me though..what do you guys think...i know its difficult just looking at the photo but just wanted to kinda show you what they looked like...Some other questions came up as well...here we go..For the screened in deck zone as far as the framing around that area we have 2 choices..we could go with teak but is gonna need maintenance every 1-2 years for sure with humidity and blistering heat..or we could go with an aluminum frame kind of like what the windows are made out of and our less maintenance prone.
Front door..Nancy/ Bob and i saw this door in liberia on their way out of town that was a steel framed and had a paneling on the outside of it so it looked like a wood door but is really stell underneath...was kind of pretty cool technique and might be a good choice...the boys got a quote and it's $1000..Doug said if we had him make a wood front door probably around $600 range and then if we wanted to put safety steel door on outside of that would probably be around another $300 ..meaning you would open this steel safety door first and then your wood front door...rather where the other one with steel frame/wood paneling wouldnt necessarily require that second safety steel door on outside...let me know what you guys think but was thinking the steel framed wood panel door might be way to go...Nancy and bob saw it and could give you a bit more details on there thoughts as well...will be talking to everyone soon...sorry for the mini novel here...KC
