Sometimes it doesn't take a collapsed ceiling to know it's time for a revamp. Sometimes it's just a nagging sense. A creeper, not loud. Like when your home starts to feel smaller even though the measurements never moved. Or when you can't avoid the same bit of bench. Same spot, different day.

That's pretty much how remodeling comes to life. Not always with a grand plan. Just a frustration. A layout that never quite flowed. A study that used to be “fine” but now feels like it's shrinking. You walk around and start noting what could be different. Then you try to live with it. Then you make a list.

And hey, if your light switch works first go, that's a pretty good start too.
