Walter asked for better storage. Not a bigger kitchen, better storage.
That is usually the real problem. The room is the right size, the layout just fights you every time you cook in it.
Monroe, Washington. Thanks Walter.

Blue pearl granite on the counter, cherry cabinets, and the same granite again on the shower pan. No window either. The skylight does all the lighting work.

A pallet of shingles weighs about as much as a small car, which is why it goes up by crane and not by ladder.

Slide two is cracked pavers and weeds settling in different directions for years. Building something flat on top of that is most of the work, and none of it shows in the after.

Nobody ever asks how the bath gets in.
Four of us, over our heads, up the dock, through the bedroom, past the bed. It does not fit through anything, so it goes over everything.
Then you fill it once and forget any of that happened.

It is that the crew left it clean. Jenny on her new Trex deck and sliding door in Kirkland. Sapir ran this one.

Final reveal. Rooftop deck in Seattle, no street parking, a road too narrow for material. And it sits on a TPO roof, where one wrong fastener means a leak rather than a repair.
