My Loft Flip

Hey there, I figure I would put up my project to help keep me motivated. I've been working on this 2 story loft for the past year.

Demo'd the entire bathroom, all new plumbing, faucets, vanity, toilet, electrical.

Re: My Loft Flip

Ah the kitchen, what a POS it was. there were only 2 usable cupboards and the layout was very cramped. Listing everything would take too long so I'll give the quick run down. Demo'd the entire kitchen, pushed it out 2 feet, removed the drop ceiling. All new plumbing, electrical, appliances, quartz counter tops, natural stone backsplash, yada yada yada.

Backsplash + Faucet:

Re: My Loft Flip

You made some really great choices.

I like the kitchen backsplash. Is that honed marble/travertine?

Re: My Loft Flip

Thanks, I havent worked on it in the past few weekends so I don't have anything new to report other than throwing some prints up. Take a wild guess where they are from

As you can tell I still have to trim out the windows/baseboards and that is my goal for this weekend. I'll have pics of the second floor next
