The front of the home had a vestibule bumped out on it some time after the original build.

Gold and red velvet wallpaper. And blue carpet!

Low-relief art deco style mural in silver, gold and blue, custom built for the angled ceiling.

Clever but dated built-ins were removed to open up the space.

The infamous "build-the-addition-around-the-palm" shot.



Stucco covered every inch of the block exterior and was painstakingly chiseled away by Kaffer.



Matching blue countertops!


Carpet party!
