Before and After
Master Bathroom


Small cramped bathroom is revamped


Nice Shower right?


New soak-er tub


Shower and wall hung toilet


Shower and tub

This room was totally demoed.  By moving the door to the opposite wall I accomplished two things.  I got rid of an awkward door in the master bedroom and gained space to make this layout.  I also moved the sink into an adjoining room which I will show you in the next series of pictures.

This long hallway was nothing but wasted space

Entry Before and After

August 25, 2015


Sorry, I've been so busy these last few months I haven't had time to post the finished pictures.  I've been meaning to get a pro in but that hasn't happened so it is out with the trusty Iphone.  I love before and after pictures so I will include them whenever possible.


Entry Before


Entry Now
Saarinen Table


Doors open to reveal my new office.
Great use of an unnecessarily large entry


Front door with new lighting soffit and Artemide hand blown
glass chandelier


Control 4 system powered by an Ipad mini.
This operates sound and lighting.
