My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

What is the lighter color in the stripes? The colors you listed are not that light like that, I just learned the hard way :(

    Oh no! The lighter color is actually white. We used the darker grey, red, and white for the stripes, and the lighter grey on the two walls with no stripes.

    Could a cream white be used instead? Either way, this is gorgeous!

    Sure, but the crisp white makes it feel a little fresher. Thanks for your message!

    The stripes are approximately 12" wide, and were calculated to fit the size of the wall. Thanks for your message!
