I too noticed the seemingly close spaced studs, but I think it could easily
be just the photo.

Looking good Brian!
Two by six studs outside walls are common where more insulation is
desirable
It is the minimum here for R21. A few houses go thicker to accommodate
higher R value or add rigid insulation or sprayed-in. And that looks
like engineered wood? Is it sized to metric? Also notice more use of
framing members than we do. The reason being that wood has a lower R
value so transmits more heat. Less is more efficient both in material
and future heating cost. Are you going to use vertical siding?
