After and before. At our palm beach project we made some changes to the first floor living area which included the demolition of an existing wood fireplace to be replaced with a Escea fireplace, recessed in television above the fire place and patching in blackbutt laminate floor to match in with existing. This living area has really turned out a treat and certainly feels a lot cosier than what originally was there.

After and before. The finishing touches have been added to this media/lounge room with installing these brilliant custom made white poly joinery units which tie in awesome with the blackbutt laminate floor. The design of the joinery was to maximise storage solutions and we also threw in there a custom wine rack with 2 wine fridges to go in. Sitting by this new escea fireplace that installed with a glass of wine would be prime

Setting up site at our Wahroonga project. A full interior gut of the place with walls to be removed, re-location of the kitchen, new oak floors throughout, Escea fireplace, brand new external aluminium windows and laundry renovation. Before photos to come soon.
