REMODELERS CORNER<br />
929 Design Inc. has been in business for more than 13 years.<br />
The bulk of owner Monica Boeckenstedt’s work is design<br />
and sale of cabinets for new construction and remodels.<br />
Monica had an office in Cedar Rapids but when the<br />
building was purchased, she decided to begin working from<br />
her Coralville home. According to Monica, now working<br />
from home only made her feel “slightly” guilty about<br />
updating her 5-year-old kitchen.<br />
“Personalized space planning, flow and function are<br />
paramount to me. Then comes making a space look<br />
stunning,” said Monica. The main goals of the remodel<br />
were to brighten the kitchen, add more storage and remove<br />
barriers that blocked the flow. The original pantry in the<br />
home, built by Klosterman Construction, had been turned<br />
into an elevator by the previous owner, so a new walk-in<br />
pantry was added. Cherry cabinets were replaced with<br />
new white cabinets. The dark wood-paneled appliances<br />
replaced with Sub Zero and Wolf stainless steel, including<br />
a 60-inch range and refrigerated drawers. New, bright<br />
Cambria quartz counters were installed, and a new favorite<br />
is a motorized garbage. “We love to cook and entertain, so I<br />
didn’t hold back,” said Monica.<br />
Other HBA members who worked on the redesign, included<br />
A Tech Freeman Systems, AVI Audio Video Integrators,<br />
Randy’s Flooring, Kelly Heating and Air, Grout Electric, The<br />
Appliance Barn and Vittetoe Plumbing and Heating.<br />
The project will be part of the <strong>2019</strong> Greater Iowa City Area<br />
HBA Remodelers Parade (see page 3). Stop by and check it out.<br />
