Awesome, I'm right downtown - but very close to a skytrain station so...highly mobile!

@Greg Rulfs , @Marc Ramsay I'm also from Vancouver and would love to meet up for coffee and talk US RE one day!

Welcome to BP Nation Javier! You've definitely come to the right place...just jump in, keep reading and posting ;-)

To your success! Penny

Haha - gotcha!

@Sean Kuhn The hardware on your kitchen island looks fine to me - is it the same throughout? If so, I'd leave it.

A room in a shared home - either in a nicer area with 4 or 5 other people (student rental), or in a fixer upper/basement suite with 1 or 2 others.

Yes, you're right Sean - I would just do a first coat primer and then paint it with a semi-gloss or gloss white - it will make a huge difference!

Hi Sean,

I meant to mention - take in a drawer with you to the home store and they'll be able to help you make the best match.

All best, Penny

Sure - here's some inspiration - the cupboards are even like yours!

Hi Sean,

I agree with modern handles and I would do stone countertop - keeping the colour of the stone light...granite is super durable. I would also replace the lino floor with a tile - slate is inexpensive and also very durable.

All best! Penny
