I designed kitchen, bathrooms, laundry room. There was a lot of work involved in the bathrooms. Walls had to be changed.... as you can see it is beautiful! I designed a rolling card island to include a paper towel roll out and a bread box. I hid the wheels and made it look like furniture. In the master bathroom I did a chisel edge top for a "zen" like feeling.
