Utility Room Conversion/Partition & Renovation (Utility Room´s Angle)

So this is what the utility room ended up like. It´s practical, washer and dryer was stacked, saving a bit of space and a simple yet useful sink installed. Tilework blends in with the door opened onto the newly shower room seen through the door. Challenge completed!

Utility Room Conversion/Partition & Renovation

This was basically a huge utility room which client wanted it to get partitioned and renovated to a useful shower room, basin and toilet included. I´ve used a new method of tiling here which makes the ceiling seem much higher and the space much bigger. Instead of starting with full tiles at the bottom and having the cut off at top, I´ve swapped the two around - yes, it´s much more work - but yes, it´s well worth it!

Another Basement Reno (Bedroom)

This has been a great project, thoroughly enjoyed. Happy and satisfied! It is part of a very large basement, which is now a very cosy, insulated space and very taken advantage of - as pics show.

Shopfitting

I´d personally say that communication is definitely the highest on my list. The constant interaction makes all projects either a success or not. Brainstorming ideas are the best way for giving a client the options, possible complications and solutions, and for the builder/contractor to express his/her knowledge and experience. (It´s quite easy to pick up the amount of experience of any builder or decorator bringing forth a slight “hick up”, and that´s also the moment things come together if experienced - of course). The following was an execution of a perfect mind understanding.  Ideas we´re bouncing all over the show throughout the project :-) I´ve only got a few in between photos, but that gives you the perfect opportunity to go and have a look yourself, meet the friendly owner.

Shopfitting - Turning Old Into Slick and Glamorous (Boutique)

Every now and then, an exciting project is presented on my doorway - exploring the outer bounderies, color, design and the use. A lot of things could go wrong going beyond the norms, but even more could go better than imagined with a bit of thinking! This was an awesome project, where creativity and just the freedom to present ideas was warmly welcomed and it worked. A complete "facelift" to an old town store... mortered walls were covered with slick modern panels, beams were brought back to life by white-waxing them and small color changes made this a huge success for a what is to be, a cosy and beautiful Jewelry Boutique, set right in the heart of Carouge.

My PIE

Statistics regarding the last 3 months, January to end March.  Many others too, but these were the projects from 3 days atleast and onwards.

A Serving Counter Aluminium Structure for Burger Take-Away!

It´s been a while since I´ve done something for a more commercial envirnoment...it´s much harder and many other important issues are to be considered like the extensive use, the abuse and just wear and tear. The Gourmet Burger Bar "Holy Cow!" commisioned me for the serving counter, which is probably the object which will be most used, so I came up with this structure:

The final finish.... It´s well worth visiting this top class restaurant, we got treated to one of their burgers one day and it´s delicious!!
