Inside Paragraphs

The week before Hurricane Dolly hit SPI I had visited the island to meet with the architect and finalize some construction details. I took some photos but with all the turmoil last week I hadn't had a chance to get any of them posted here.

So if you have been following the construction of Paragraphs, here is the update, pre-Dolly.

Welcome to Paragraphs





As we enter the front door the space opens up into a 1400 sq. ft. sunlit area which will be filled with new and used books, gifts, cards, and other merchandise, along with having some comfy seating areas where I hope visitors will feel inclined to sit for a while and escape the hustle and bustle of the outside world.
















Two doors at the back of the space lead outside to a courtyard, which when filled with plants, tables and chairs will provide another place to sit and relax with a crossword, suduko, or the daily paper while enjoying a cup of complimentary coffee or cold drink; make a date with some friends to meet and discuss the latest best-seller; or bring your laptop and enjoy access to free wi-fi.













Across the courtyard is the entrance to a small residence which I will be thrilled to call home.

The dome ceiling is going to be very cool.
