Colin: “Yeah, but at the same time, you now actually have space to greet people, you know? And what we’re gonna do here is we’re going to incorporate kind of obviously food storage and a kind of cloak storage as well.”

Laurie: “Okay, great.”

Justin: “That previous mud room, it was a little bit dark and gloomy and it wasn’t a very welcoming place to meet people. Imagine that door opening and your friends going straight into the majesty of your home.”

Justin: “Now, can I just tell you, this, these are the inside, these are what are called the carcases of the cabinets.”

Laurie: “The shell of the shell, okay.”

Justin: “Now obviously a door will go on top of the cabinet and then, potentially, the door might be a, a different colour.”
