The post below was sent as an issue of my newsletter, Ready for Rain.
Lately we’ve been busy preparing the house for paint, which is most a project of masking.
Next Tuesday is Election Day and I wouldn’t want to distract you from voting. 🇺🇸
Ready for Rain will arrive again the following week. Until then…
Each week, I share media recommendations and a story from my life on a rural island off the coast of Washington State, where I'm building a custom home and learning island culture. Learn more.

There is a unique point in each house’s life when it’s naked and in it’s purest form. The work is done, but the people haven’t yet moved in. For us that lasted about 24 hours and I took the opportunity to take photos before it’s hidden behind furniture, rugs, and all the things that bring it to life. Below, I’m sharing those photos along with sections of the creative brief from last week.
Starting then, the idea of eventually building a new house on the island started to dominate our thoughts. What would we build? What could we build?
We set out to build an efficient home and now that we’ve moved, it’s obvious that some things are not going to fit and I take it as a good sign.
