Meditation room archway
I removed the doorway hardware and trim, framed out the archway and then added the drywall. After smoothing the seams I matched texture and painted to match the living and meditation rooms.

I replaced the blinds with lower curtains and refinished the vanity which was peeling/cracking with a modified urethane enamel.

Side cabinet
The sides and upper half had suffered severe water damage and the cabinet was no longer structurally sound. The owner wanted to keep as much of the original cabinet as possible so I rebuilt the sides and back but salvaged the doors, top, hinges, and shelf inside. I then removed the inserts in the doors and replaced it with cane webbing. The hinges had the paint stripped and were polished before being returned to the doors.

Hall Arch
I removed the door molding and framed out the arch in 2x4 and ply, then added the drywall and the mud. On the hall side there is a Spanish mud texture that needed to be matched and the living room was a simple spray texture.
