## Transcript

So we just wrapped up Project Syncopa, and we completely redesigned this entire main floor. We had to get permits. Above me you can see this arched barrel ceiling. We added this mudroom and powder room off to the side, and all of these arch openings. There was a load-bearing wall that we removed here.

And we added this full custom kitchen. Beautiful island with these nice lights above. We have a full appliance garage here with pocket doors. We also updated all of the bathrooms in the house, and all of the floors, all of the doors, all of the trims. So this is all brand new.
