  • Second video of the renovation of my little stone cabin in the French Mountain.
    Thanks to all who have been watching the first video, I was really not expecting so many people.
    I tried to follow some advices, but I'm still learning.
    You can find me, maybe see a few more content as I post stories when I'm working there, and ask your questions on instagram at @kevdaud

    Thanks for watching.

    It's always a good design decision to have a moisture barrier between the earth and your finished floor. Moisture will 'wick' up through a concrete floor. Run it up the walls the distance that you imagine the thickness of the concrete slab.

    Great video! I am probably too late but, have you considered getting a mattress and bed frame, suitably wrapped, through the 'ceiling' on to the first floor, as you may have issues getting large pieces of furniture up the twist in the stair. I live in a 250 year old cottage, with only a three stair twist at the bottom of the staircase, but had to turn a Victorian iron bed frame into garden furniture and even an extra firm mattress can be difficult to bend?

      Hello, that's a damn good point.
      I thought a lot about this. I did not planed to get things up earlier because i'm a man who likes to go full improvisation. So I dont really know what i'm going to do upstairs but i plan to build the bed so i'll have to bring the furnitures and i have the 2 small Windows fo this, and I also plan to add a bigger one in the roof to have a beautiful view of the mountains in my bed so i think it's gonna be ok like this.

      That's a good question.

It was the best compromise for being able to do everything that i want in the house in the differents room.
      I know it's a little narrow and steep but the thing is you only go upstairs to sleep so you spend the most time downstairs so it seems to me it wasnt a big problem. Maybe the time will make me change my mind
