I finally can act on my promise of sharing with you some of the improvements we’ve done in the house.  I wanted to create for our son a modern bathroom which was also timeless, in which he will eventually grow without getting tired of it.  This house was built in the early 70’s, so when we bought it, it was stuck in that period.  Lucky for us, the previous owners didn’t update it.  Everything from lousy wood paneling, even worse looking wallpaper in many of the rooms, red tile floors, small and crowded kitchen was what enchanted me.  No, I’m not losing it, I’m just an Interior Designer who loves to make spaces purely personal, and who also likes challenges.  Where others see obstacles, I see endless possibilities.
