Back in June, after learning that a local church The Bridge Bible Fellowship was remodeling their Missions House and could use some design help, I jumped at the chance to organizing this community project for IDS LA/Ventura Chapter.
The beginning of the story (from the church’s blog) can be found HERE.
I was able to gather four volunteer interior designers quickly. The project had already began when we got involved. Unlike projects our designers are used to dealing with, this one comes with many limitations. The design team had to make many compromises, and many design suggestions had to be altered. Although the finished work is not Architectural Digest worthy, but we feel great that we were able to give back a little to our community.
I was amazed to see these four designers work so harmonically and efficiently together. (Maybe I will start calling them “Fab-4” from now on.) Personally, I want to thank these four ladies for volunteering their time and talent and tolerating me as an inexperienced coordinator.

The project could not have been done without the contractor Kiko Castro and his team. FunTime Cabinet Factory fabricated the kitchen and hallway cabinetry at a extremely low price. Joanna Forbes of Closet Factory made the master bedroom closet more efficient and functional.

Thank you for reading all the details. Enjoy the photos!
