In the original space,
the exercise room was the first area seen. The new plan swapped the
location of the den and exercise rooms and included a fireplace, which
is now the focal point. A small bar area was also added. The exercise
room is hidden by reclaimed barn doors. The hardwood floors are
reclaimed oak from a factory in Eutaw, Alabama, the screen porch ceiling
and bar area walls are skins from the milling of reclaimed flooring and
beams. The scissor trusses in the main den are reclaimed sinker pine
from Mobile Bay, Alabama and were used to dry dock submarines. The
vaulted ceilings are treated with a 1"x6" tongue and groove pine and
stained.
