Cabinet Painting in San Diego: Creating a Beautiful Office Space

Last Updated: June 19, 2020

Do you know what people are doing a LOT of these days? Home improvement projects and working from home.

The two really go hand-in-hand. I mean, the more time you spend at home, the more you want to improve it, and the more you improve it the more you notice the other areas that need improvement, and the beat goes on.

In this case, we were asked to paint a workstation for a San Diego client, from the beautiful upper cabinets and cubbies to the stained desktop. The results are pretty fantastic, if we do say so ourselves. Thankfully, our client says so too…

For the full workstation transformation, be sure to click through the slideshow above. You’ll get the “before and after” perspective, of course, but we also added some shots of our team staining the surface. While these photos aren’t as glamorous or packed with wow factor, we like to offer a glimpse into the prep and craftsmanship involved. We take pride in our work, and want that old-school approach to shine. Literally.

We also painted this beautiful unit for the same homeowner and love the transformation. How about you?
