The beautiful, pink master bathroom was intact except for the original sink. The tub, soap holder, wall tile, floor tile and toilet were all in very good shape. This gave the template for the design of the other bathrooms, especially the one on the lower level which had been completely changed. Chad Shiflett

You need only look at the before picture of the SYI Studio space to understand the background of this project and need for a new work space. Susan lives with her husband, three kids and dog in a 1960 split-level in Bloomington, which they've updated over the years and didn't want to leave, thanks to a great location and even greater neighbors. As the SYI team grew so did the three Yeley kids, and it became clear that not only did the team need more space but so did the family. 1.5 bathrooms + 3 bedrooms + 5 people = exponentially increasing discontent. By 2016, it was time to pull the trigger. Everyone needed more room, and an offsite studio wouldn't work: Susan is not just Creative Director and Owner of SYI but Full Time Activities and Meal Coordinator at Chez Yeley. The design, conceptualized entirely by the SYI team and executed by JL Benton Contracting, reclaimed the existing 4th bedroom from SYI space, added an ensuite bath and walk-in closet, and created a studio space with its own exterior entrance and full bath—making it perfect for a mother-in-law or Airbnb suite down the road. The project added over a thousand square feet to the house—and should add many more years for the family to live and work in a home they love.

This 1970's home had a detached and closed off kitchen; a new pass through between the kitchen and dining room allows natural light to flood the kitchen and allows for easier food service to the dining room.

A living, dining, and kitchen area were opened up, and the flat 8 foot ceiling torn out to open up a large vaulted coffer, punctuated by a double skylight shaft over the cooktop and sink that floods the kitchen with daylight. Three windows on left (north) wall were closed in for privacy and wall space for cabinets

The original kitchen footprint located the range against the garage door, and the refrigerator where the range now sits; by relocating the refrigerator, enough depth was to allow for a walkway. The refrigerator's new location makes it seem less prominent.

New windows, doors, siding, roofing, gutters, fencing, and hardscaping completely transformed this split-level home.
