Project summary
The project brief was to open up the floor space for a large property located in Reigate.
The existing kitchen and lounge was poorly lit and did not compliment the size of the property.
Our remit was to change that and open the ground floor kitchen and lounge and flood the room with natural light.
Did we deliver? Seeing is believing, so watch and see.
