Welcome back to Day 2, Week 6 of the rapid renovation challenge with Australia’s rapid renovation expert, Naomi Findlay. On Monday, we took a look at the kitchen and hall. Naomi shared her thoughts on how she planned to update the flow of the kitchen to create a seamless kitchen/dining space. She also showed us how she’s transformed the hall from a shrine to the 1970’s, complete with slate tiled floors, to a clean, modern connecting pathway.
Today we’ll be taking a look at the update that Naomi is making to the living areas, including the removal of the freestanding fire place to create more usable wall space and open up the proportions of the room.
We’ll also get the scoop on the creation of a whole new living space (with storage!) where there previously just been an unused expanse of room off the second toilet.
You can see the progress made for yourself with images and the videos where Naomi explains the process and what her team are doing to meet their goals.
Make sure to pop back in next week to check out the updated utility areas and the first of the room reveals.
