Rest is watercolour, macrame and sewing related, oh and Tiny Houses. Your vids are great too. I look forward to when you have a house of your own :) I have no life... Melbourne Australia!

I’d insulate everything. Air gap insulation is not efficient enough. Since the attic already has insulation it would make sense to blow it in the walls as well since there is no air flow in the attic space… to your point I’d also use rock wool Underneath the floors to reduce foot sounds.

@@kerriuttaro6153 they were people discussing this topic a few comments up, throughout the EU it’s more common to make brick houses with concrete foundations. Usually the shape of the attic differs depending on the climate. I remember my dad always joking when seeing me watch renovation shows in tv that omg these Americans make paper houses 😂 (of course the US is huge, many different climates, many different construction techniques, but you definitely see more of these wood frames there than in Europe).
