This project was started with the purpose of creating a rural getaway for the new owners, and it does just that. It may be a small building, but it was a great project with a few challenges. One unique challenge was creating a custom weathervane. The owners are big University of Illinois Fighting Illini fans, and they requested an Illini chief weathervane. With the help of a local fab shop, we were able to bring their vision to life.
