A basement finished around a shiplap fireplace wall
Board, tape, texture, paint and trim on one basement, built around a shiplap chimney breast with the fireplace set into it.
Walls, ceiling and trim brought back around new gray cabinets and quartz, without moving a single thing.

The layout worked and the room got good light, so nothing structural needed to move. What it needed was for every surface that had aged badly to stop being the thing you looked at, and for the job to happen without the family losing their kitchen for a month.
The room reads as one piece now instead of a good kitchen sitting inside a tired one. The part worth copying is the order it happened in: everything that makes dust was finished and swept out before anything new and clean went into the room.
