The remodeling process began with a complete demolition of the existing space. This phase was necessary to create a blank canvas from which to develop a space that would better serve patients and healthcare professionals alike. The design team, led by Guil, collaborated closely with the client to envision a modern and inviting environment that would significantly improve the clinic's functionality and atmosphere. By focusing on patient comfort and operational efficiency, the redesign aimed to enhance the overall experience for visitors and staff. A standout feature of this remodel was the installation of glass doors. These doors not only served a practical purpose but also added a modern touch to the clinic. The use of glass allowed for increased natural light to flow into the space, promoting an open and airy feel. This design choice aligns with current trends in healthcare architecture, where patient comfort is prioritized. Additionally, the choice of materials played a crucial role in the renovation. The installation of travertine tile throughout the walls and desk created a sense of elegance and durability. Travertine is a natural stone that not only provides a high-end look but also offers practical benefits, such as easy maintenance and longevity. The incorporation of engineered wood floors further enhanced the clinic's design. The warmth of wood can help in mitigating the often sterile feeling of medical environments, thereby promoting a more welcoming atmosphere. Central to the success of this remodel was the dedication and hard work of the entire team at MDRN Remodeling, along with the collaborative spirit formed with the client.

Kitchen renovation transformed an outdated disjointed kitchen into an environment that is warm, spacious, efficient, and inviting. The new layout provides additional storage space as well as prep/entertaining space. A harmonious contrast to the finish of the cabinetry was provided by a dark Hanstone quartz countertop with varying shades of gray, gold, black and red and a Noce travertine backsplash with randomly placed glass tiles in dark gray, taupe, tan and red was the perfect compliment. The light fixtures and cabinet hardware in oil rubbed bronze accentuate the darker hues in the quartz countertops and the glass inserts in the travertine tiled backsplash.
