Kitchen remodel: Replaced countertop with Granite tiles 12 x 12 in a diagonal pattern. Added wood trim around counter to match maple cabinets. Extended counter by adding counter height leg/posts. Added slate tiles to walls, installed buffet cabinets.
Stairs after. The stairs were turned 90 degrees by opening up the enclosed wall and making them wider at the bottom. New carpet was added and a rail with wood trim along the outside of the risers.
