Soffit

Time to put on soffit (Vindskivor in Swedish, Ranaeng in Thai).
The builder tried to find black net to use between the roof and soffit, but it was impossible. The shops only sells blue nets. But - I guess no one will see it anyway.
The soffit is made of "conwood", a kind of fiber concrete that looks like wood. The yellow conwood will be painted later on so it will look like wood.
In Thailand it's quite normal to use concrete lookalike materials, the termites and other wood eating insects doesn't like it.

Blueprint

The first version of the blueprint. About half of the house is one floor, the bedrooms are raised as a second floor with mostly open areas below (laundry and outdoor relax area). I guess there will be some small changes here and there during the building process, but in general this is the house. Even if it looks like that, we will not have any cars under the bedroom.

Community water

Perfect timing. The community have started to dig and mount water pipes right outside my fence, so I will get water from both the well and the community = no future water problems!
