Turning Challenges into Opportunity: Reviving a Duplex with Smart Design

This was another challenging project—at first, I wasn’t sure if I could make it work. The master bath had major electrical issues that needed to be addressed, and the built-in bookshelves with integrated lighting created an eerie atmosphere rather than a warm, inviting space.

However, I knew that with the right adjustments, thoughtful lighting choices, and a few strategic design decisions, the entire duplex could feel more cohesive and welcoming. It’s always about seeing past the initial hurdles and finding the true potential of a space.
