The arch is up! And so is the intonaco (mostly)

Today's exciting update is that the arch was completed around 5 today. I didn't stay for the final infill, because I had other things to get done, but it was clear that it would happen so that the intonacisti could come tomorrow and finish off that patch of wall. Apart from that section (and I assume the wall on the other side, in the living room), the first pass at the intonaco has been completed. They're coming tomorrow for those bits and to grade the remainder (I think mostly knocking off the bits that aren't smooth enough for the final coat), then they'll be there on Monday for the white topcoat. So much fun!

A nice storage area for Michael!

Our bedroom!

Intonaco in progress in our bedroom
Done for now!

I don't know what Umberto's next steps are, but he has been talking about the massetto...the subfloor...so maybe? That would be a huge advance.

Love,

Alexandra
