乌鸦传媒榃e built it the way we thought would be the best structurally, because that乌鸦传媒檚 what our instinct led us to do. But then going through it, we realized that if we had basically built the stair slightly off the wall, and properly sealed it there, we wouldn乌鸦传媒檛 have lost as much air in the building through that one point.乌鸦传媒� Henri Belisle, TQ Construction

乌鸦传媒楾here乌鸦传媒檚 always trade offs. Understanding what we are willing to trade off is important.

So, I think there乌鸦传媒檚 some calibration always that goes on there regarding communication.乌鸦传媒� Dr Janet Simons, Homeowner.
