We’ve been working on the new arch over the main entrance to the new house.
As you might remember, this kind of “architectural detail” is added by nailing thick styrofoam down on the exterior wall before stucco.
Last time, Brad did a great job of basically freehanding the design. This time with a wider door, we were having a harder time with it, so we decided to apply technology.
First I found an arch we liked on the computer.
Then we projected it onto the stryrofoam piece. Lots of trick size matching to do here.
Then Brad did the tracing.
And here’s the final result. Well, not quite final, but you get the idea.
