Structure is light framed using 2x4's with redundant lateral supports for seismic and wind mitigation.

Victoria is using epoxy to waterproof the sloped wood troff that forms the ceiling to the kitchen below. This area will be covered with a local cedar deck.

All finish wood in the cottage is either local mahogany or cedar.

Interior design and theme is reminiscent of a late 1700's English castaway, using parts of a ship to construct a lookout cottage on a hillside.
