A 2-foot wall protruding in to the room was removed. The area contained plumbing from a bathroom above. this entailed the following work:

• plumbing  was relocated against the wall

• framing out new section, as well as ceiling

• joist removed, then reinforced with headers and new joists to accommodate plumbing

​

The wall to the right was mostly removed and the section was replaced with a steal I-beam, which we opted to paint and leave exposed, as a unique detail. (Pictured below.)

​

This opened the kitchen fully into the dining room, allowing us to add a large island. 

​

A wall separating the dining room and living room was also completely removed, giving the entire first floor an open feel with great flow.
