I have this thing.  If you can see a space, why not make it nice to look it, or visually interesting? Wanting to make a laundry room nice to look at, I decided to go with matte black.  I find when everything blends in , it gives just a…

I like to keep things minimal and sleek. Like who wants to see an electrical outlet, or a white vent in a not white room?  To me, it really irritates my brain if it all doesn’t flow.  I want the space I’m in to be something I like to be in, and feel comfortable in. …
