In the garage, master carpenter Norm Abram finds specialist Joe
Ferraro installing a new custom garage system. Inside, host Kevin
O'Connor and homeowner George Mabry meet kitchen designer Amy
Leonard for a look at the finished kitchen and state-of-the-art
appliances. Plumbing and heating expert Richard Trethewey shows
Norm the central vacuum system and modern plumbing fixtures on the
first floor. Upstairs, the stainless steel washer and dryer and the
luxurious master bath round out the master suite. Chimney
specialist Mark Schaub installs new vented gas logs in the corner
fireplace of the library, as general contractor Tom Silva installs
custom shoji screens from California. Instead of rice paper, the
panels are made of an environmentally friendly textured polyester
resin. On the second floor, another kind of window treatment is
going up - mail-order custom shades. Specialist Cindy O'Reilly
shows Kevin how easy they are to install. On the final day, minutes
before the wrap party, audio/visual specialist Dan Chadwick shows
Norm the finished media system and whole house automation. Lighting
designer Susan Arnold and designer Todd Tsiang show Kevin how they
have illuminated and decorated the house that George has been
dreaming of for 13 years - a glowing, minimalist home that is
clearly modern, yet comfortable and warm.
