The Phoenix - framing

here are some pictures of the project in framing phase. what i like about Abode Homes, the general contractor, is their standard construction materials are those that have minimal impact on the environment and modular.

i like looking at the framing because it is the skeletal part of the spaces. the prefab trusses look like wings. this process is quick and in a matter of days the frame is covered.

here are some websites of material used
