Never had a house with insulated interior walls before. Now I can really see the rooms. I think I did good with the design. Large rooms, no wasted space, and I can see out all four sliders from the back of the kitchen/great room. The brown insulation darkened the interior way up, but when the drywall goes in it should be fine. Master closet looks huge, but it will be more proportional when the double vanity and island are installed.

The AV guy gave me a acceptable estimate to wire the house, garage and patios for sound, and to run CAT6 to the corners of the patios if I ever decide to hard wire a camera system. I was going to do it myself, but we start drywalling next week and they can wire it in a day. I can install the stereo system and speakers at a later date. We talked and walked around the house looking at potential stereo unit locations. I don’t want it visible, so it limits options. We settled on the linen closet in the spare bath. It's big for a guest bathroom linen closet. We are going to dedicate a shelf to the stereo unit and accessories. With Bluetooth and IR remote sensors, I don't need to see it. It's the most central location. I already ran 110v power to the closet even though the electrician told me not to touch his stuff, because it's actually my stuff. There is an outlet in the same wall for the guest room, so it was maybe 3' of wire and a box. The electrician hasn't been back to pick up scrap so I scrounged what I needed out of there. Electrician recycles all his scrap wire. He bought his second work truck with scrap wire money.
