Blueprint for Improvement:  Modern living in Zionsville

THE CHALLENGE:

This 1977 home is in Zionsville’s Colony Woods neighborhood.  The homeowners wanted to update the family room fireplace and surrounding built-ins with a clean, modern style.

THE SOLUTION:

• The built-ins were replaced with floating acrylic laminate cabinetry and custom-made floating poplar shelves. The cabinets are topped with quartz.
• The fireplace is now the star of the room, covered in a beautiful tile that mimics burnished steel. The firebox was converted from wood-burning to gas.
• The hearth was designed with a recessed space to accommodate the television.
• Luxury vinyl flooring provides clean lines and unparalleled durability.
