Master bathroom More views! The major asset is ignored, plus a cheese wedge closet needs fixing
Too many obstructions for the view Similar theme of emphasizing the light and views, plus getting rid of the oak and moving to a simpler style
Let light in The skylight was blocked from most of the room, so open it all up
How the new stairs will be finished The "box" at the head of the old stairs can go, leaving everything more open.
How the new area by the stairs will look New window appears to be feasible
Looking across the room From where the fireplace/TV will be to the hall door
View up the stairs from the landing
Painting on the walls Painting out the areas on the walls to see if it looks good
Two rejects! The deisgner's rendering had skinny columns. My two-column plan had heating duct in opening
Wall with fireplace Bonus room details getting worked out. Fireplace and a/v shelving
Mock-up of the fireplace wall Small shelves will be inset into the under eaves storage between the studs
Details of the fireplace and a/v shelves Fireplace side will house custom cabinets for a/v equipment
Built-in bookcase/desk Bonus room will have a bookcase with a drop down desk for a laptop work area
Plan B for the under eaves storage Build simple shelving into the storage space and finish interior (drywall and flooring)
Drawing on the bonus room walls Finding studs, marking skylight, fireplace, bookcase inserts...
Version 2 of bonus room What the bonus room will look like...
Faux paneling plan Keep the underlying 18" grid but omt the molding at the top
Mockup of family room wall Plain top and faux paneling on the bottom in a simple, Shaker-like style
Revised plan for walk-in closet The cheese wedge is becoming at 10' x 6' space
Elevation of one end wall Showing double hanging on either side and a tall hanging area with shelves in the middle
My cardboard mockup of the sizes of pantry shelves Trying to sanity check the scale in the real world
My pantry floorplan Seemed fine on paper, but wanted to check
Mockup of the pullout cabinets under the stairs The grill at the bottom is the air return for our furnace (i.e. can't go away)
This shows the pullout size which is smaller than the front We don't want to pay to restructure the supports under the stairs...
What it looks like under the stairs With one exception (that dangling stud above the grill), none of that framing will move
Plan for the shelves - right The photos are from Houzz
Plan for the shelves - center Pullout goes back 30" on heavy duty full extension glides
Plan for the shelves - left Small but still lots of usable storage
What things look like now I had Kerri go under the stairs & make nail holes to mark locations of studs
