Me too!

The house is clean tonight so I figured I'd better swoop down with my camera and tripod and take some "after" shots. Just so you guys believe I've actually been doing something

Of course, I waited until dusk to get that cool blue effect from the outdoor light...

Anyway, here's some before and afters. First, the kitchen.

Pictures really do no justice to the difference.

1) Eat-in area Before (some demo done)
2) Eat-in area After (just a few trim panels left to install)
3) Kitchen area Before
4) Kitchen area After
5) Kitchen as seen from custom arch in office

Two more of the kitchen area:

1) Kitchen Before
2) Kitchen After
3) Kitchen as scene through arch in Sunroom

Living room Before (sorry, blurry) and After:

Dining Room, er, "during" and Dining Room After:

What is the name of the flooring!?(I know it's travertine but what's the ACTUAL name)---I love the patterns(or lack there of) and texture of it...oooohhhhhh--- what a good job....now on to bigger adventures.

Beautiful job....hopw you add these to a portfolio or something....

With that much work done I can see how the photography time could take a real beating. You did a fantastic job. The project looks great. That kitchen looks like something out of Architectural Digest.

Can you come and do that to my kitchen next Rick?
Our new house has a poorly designed kitchen and we want to redo it.
Please?

Good stuff, you do great work!

So, who's house is this?

Great job Rick - like those light fixtures over the counter!

[walterick]

Thanks, Nat. I don't know the particular name of this travertine. It was on sale at the local discount supply warehouse. And these are def going in the portfolio!

[walterick]

Thanks, Lar. It's been a real task, that's for sure. There's a local magazine called "Phoenix Home and Garden" that some people think the kitchen should be in. Similar to "Better Homes..." Luckily, they didn't get close enough to my handiwork to see all the flaws

[walterick]

Thanks Bri!

Can you come and do that to my kitchen next Rick?

Money talks, baby!

[walterick]

Thanks, Steve

I don't care for those lights myself, but the boss wanted them. We call it "Disco Denver" for the star light fixtures next to the rustic-looking faux stone columns

Nothing wrong with disco!

[walterick]

Yeah, I heard disco is the new techno.
