Kitchen Display

A display for Showplace that is a little more magnificent than the other one.

Finished

The Studio is now open for business in all aspects. Showplace wood products cabinet display is shown in the second image and the meeting area in the last.

Interior Setup

The studio was designed on Chief Architect, as shown in the digital image, to divide the working space from the meeting area. The progress for that effort can be seen in the first image.

The Exterior

The studio was sided with Hardie planks and has a steel roof.

Protecting the Concrete Floor

Luke Wiese wanted that polished concrete floor badly and would do whatever it would take to have it installed. With the endurance of a bull, and a little help from his father, he protected the floor.

Preparing the Roof

The roof of the Studio is a Drexel Standing Seem metal roof. These roofs are a green product because they are composed of 60-65% recycled materials and absorb less heat than traditional asphalt shingles. This roof can save a homeower up to 20% on their energy bill.

Flowable Fill

Alexi and Steve leveled the fill to bring the studio's floor up to ground level

Remolding Begins

The studio started as a quaint out building with a nice outward appearance, but a rotting interior. To become the new Wiese Company studio, this building would need a lot of work.

The Beginning

The Wiese family soon began the initial demolition of the studio. Ray and two of his sons, Max and Luke, spent several weekends having a good time readying the building and giving C & L Frosty plenty of business. After many weekends, bumps and bruises, and even the occasional stepping on a nail, the Wiese studio was ready for renovations to begin.
