Speaker views future with self-driving cars
By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Will self-driving cars be the wave of the future? Many believe so. Todd Lohman, vice president and managing principal of the Indianapolis office of Walker Parking Condevelopment sulting, discussed the options that might be available if self-driving vehicles or autonomous vehicles become prevalent April 18 at the OneZone Chamber luncheon at Ritz Charles in Carmel. Some of the impediments could be affordability, regulatory, insurance and liability, economic impact with loss of jobs, ethics of programming and cybersecurity. “The idea is to do some prudent parking planning now so if it does come, you are prepared for it in the future without making major changes to adopt it,” Lohman said. “If you are designing a surface lot, do you have the length for a pick and drop area? If it’s a garage, do you have the ability to have more dense parking? Clients are asking what do they need to do to prepare for it, asking, 'What can I do now that will help me in the future?’ It’s a lot of crystal ball work, obviously.” Lohman discussed how some parking facilities might look for a way to convert the space if it is not needed in the future. Lohman said the Carmel Arts & Design District might be a popular place for a self-
driving car because of meal and entertainment options. “These work-play areas will have a big impact,” Lohman said. “Currently, you might take your car and it will just sit there for three hours and it’s taking up a spot. Now other people might be able to go there and use that spot multiple times while my car sits there for three hours.” Lohman said Uber and Lyft might eventually benefit from autonomous vehicles because it would eliminate labor costs. “I’ve heard that Volvo’s goal is to have an autonomous vehicle on the road in Europe sometime this summer,” he said. Lohman said 94 percent of all crashes are caused by driver error. So, safety should be higher, when the number of the self-driving vehicles increase. “The average life of a car is 11 years, so it’s going to take a lot of time to get fully adopted,” Lohman said. Plus, it’s unknown how long it will take for the cars to become affordable to the average driver. Lohman said autonomous cars could help older drivers and those with disabilities. Another way self-driving vehicles could be valuable is in taking children to their various practices or activities. “When my kids were young, I felt my fulltime job was being a taxi driver,” Lohman said.

Fishers students learn impor tance of giving back By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Fishers Elementary School first-grade teacher Brooke Daniel received a Mudlove bracelet for Christfundraiser mas. The spirit of the gift spread through her elementary classroom and into the community. Mudlove bracelets come from an organization whose mission is to provide clean water to Africa. Daniel was excited by her gift and shared its story with her students. “I told students how cool it was that they provide clean water, and (the students) were kind of confused by that (why others needed clean water),” she said. “It just really sparked a lot of conversation with them, and we began brainstorming ways to make a difference in our community.” The students took a field trip to the Well Coffeehouse, where they learned of the business’s efforts to provide money for wells in various areas. Students identifited multiple organizations they wanted to raise money for. They chose Riley Hospital for Children and organized a PowerPoint pre-

sentation to inform the school’s principal of their plans. Students then organized a coin drive competition between different grades at
the school, with the funds going to Riley. Homelessness and the Humane Society for Hamilton County also were on the students’ radar, and Daniel said the group
organized a food drive last month and planned for a donation drive for the Humane Society this month. Heather Schmidt, whose daughter Alana is in Daniel’s class, said the difference the lesson made in her daughter was obvious. “The kids were very curious and interested in why somebody needed clean water, and (Daniel) took that interest and developed it into a whole unit,” Schmidt said. “Kids started learning about the community and ways to affect the local community. (Alana) came home and talked to me and was so excited. It was really neat of them reaching out to learn about the community and to impact the community. I mean, they’re first-graders.” The class also read a previous article in Current in Fishers about Brother Doug’s Pizza contest where owner Doug Jeschke asked the community for ideas on how to give back. Jeschke visited the classroom last month and shared his efforts with students. “It was definitely student-led, and they were passionate,” Daniel said. “They definitely drove this along.”
DIVORCE – WHAT TO EXPECT: Relocation of a Minor Child

Before Your Spouse Does DIVORCE & FAMILY LAW MEDIATION & COLLABORATIVE DIVORCE Custody Child Support Prenuptial Agreements Adoptions Education Law DUI 317.DIVORCE | www.hzlegal.com 11555 N. Meridian St. | Suite 530 | Carmel, IN 46032
The process of going through a divorce is not only emotionally draining, but can also be somewhat daunting and overwhelming when trying to re-group and start anew. Knowing all details about future plans, is virtually unrealistic. Oftentimes, through the divorce process, some parents may have a temporary residence until they determine their next best step. Or, further on down the road, re-marriage might occur, making a change in residence inevitable. No matter what the reason, all of these scenarios may lead a parent to seek to relocate with a minor child. Consequently, when relocation is at issue, there are several specific steps a parent must take in order to ensure he or she is complying with Indiana law. Formal notice must be given to the non-relocating parent. In such a circumstance, the relocating individual must provide formal notice to the non-relocating parent ninety (90) days prior to any relocation. However, some circumstances make it so that the relocation may not be readily known ninety (90) days in advance. If that is the case, it is still best to file as soon as possibly close to when the relocation is known, but such notice must be filed no later than thirty (30) days prior to the actual move. By law, a formal Notice of Intent to Relocate must include certain information. This information includes the following: the current and proposed residential addresses; whether the relocating individual’s contact information will change and if so, the new contact information; the date of the proposed relocation; the reason for the proposed relocation; and notice that the non-relocating individual must object to any proposed relocation within sixty (60) days from the date of his or her receipt of the Notice of Intent to Relocate and may request a modification of custody and/or parenting time. A relocating parent must file this notice even if there is no Court Order regarding parenting time or custody and the matter is only pending before the court awaiting hearing. Further, there is no distance requirement for relocating individuals. In fact, the Indiana General Assembly repealed the distance requirement, making it so that a relocating parent must file a Notice of Intent to Relocate regardless of the distance involved in a proposed relocation. However, oftentimes, there are many instances where there is no objection to a proposed relocation, especially when a parent is moving only a short distance, like down the
street. In the event that the non-relocating individual objects to the proposed relocation of the minor child, the court will set the matter for a hearing on the contested relocation. Relocation matters are very challenging, for the court will not restrict a parent from moving, but the court can restrict the parent from moving the minor child. At hearing, the relocating individual bears the burden to show that the proposed relocation of the minor children is made for a good faith and legitimate reason. If the initial burden is deemed to have been met, the burden then shifts to the non-relocating individual to show that the proposed relocation is not in the child(ren)’s best interest. In contemplating whether to grant or deny the relocation the court will consider several factors, especially any factor that would affect the best interest of the child. These factors include the following: the distance involved in the proposed relocation; the hardship and expense involved for the nonrelocating individual to exercise parenting time; the feasibility of preserving the relationship between the nonrelocating individual and the child(ren) through suitable parenting time, including consideration of the financial circumstances of the parties; whether there is an established pattern of conduct by the relocating individual, including actions by the relocating individual to either promote or thwart a nonrelocating individual's contact with the child(ren); and the reasons provided by the relocating individual for seeking relocation and nonrelocating parent for opposing the relocation of the child. Depending upon the distance, in the event of the relocation of either parent, should distance become a factor in exercising parenting time, the Court may order that either party exercise parenting time “When Distance is a Major Factor” as outlined in the Indiana Parenting Time Guidelines or that which the circumstances may warrant.

Art, craft market to raise funds By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Kacy’s Krew has put on four prior fundraisers, but the fifth is the first one in Fishers. event Tricia Trick-Eckert said the group moved the art and craft market to Fishers because her church, Cornerstone Lutheran Church, recently opened a third campus there. The fundraiser will be 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. April 29 at CLC, 13450 E. 116th St. It will raise money for Fair Haven, a program that provides free and temporary housing for seriously ill patients and their families traveling to Indianapolis for treatment. Trick-Eckert’s sister, Kacy Trick Meyer, died of colon cancer and spent time at Fair Haven during her treatment. “During her more than four-year battle of cancer, we as a family rallied around her and with her to start raising money,” said Trick-Eckert, creator of Kacy’s Krew. “We were raising money for a different organization, and during that time she really felt strongly about having a personal connection to what we were doing. She went back to Fair Haven, and she asked me to look into what we can do for Fair Haven, and

FFA receives $2,500 grant By Renee Larr • news@currentinfishers.com Hamilton Southeastern’s Future Farmers of America chapaccomplishment ter was recently awarded a grant of $2,500. America’s Farmers: Grow Communities grants are sponsored by the Monsanto Fund to support rural farming communities. The program began in 2010 and allows local farmers to nominate groups that are making a difference in their local farming community. The HSE FFA was nominated by Hamilton County corn and soybean farmer Terry Boone. “I have two daughters who were members of the FFA at HSE. Both served as presidents of the FFA,” Boone said. “The FFA was instrumental in my daughters’ lives and careers. I was instrumental getting the adult boosters back at that time. I’m thoroughly aware of Tom Younts’ (HSE FFA Advisor) commitment to those kids and the program. He has spent his entire adult life helping that program.” The chapter has plans to spread the money across a few different areas within

We’re planning to use it for some trips for students,” said Adam Schreck, reporter for the HSE FFA Chapter. “I, myself, have attended different camps for FFA.

Heartland Big Band finds home at the Fort
By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com
The Heartland Big Band has settled nicely into its new home. The jazz band, which COVER STORY previously played at Madison Park Church of God in Anderson for several years, made its first appearance at Theater at The Fort, 8920 Otis Ave., Lawrence in May 2016. “We wanted to grow the audience base and felt Lutterman there was an opportunity and need to grow it in Lawrence,” said Randy Greenwell, secretary of the band’s executive board. The band will perform a tribute to George Gershwin, called “Gershwin by George!” at 7 p.m. May 5 and 6. It’s part of their “Swingin’ at the Fort” concert series. Scott Lutterman, the artistic director, said there will be an 18-piece band with two vocalists, Quentin Beverly, a Lawrence Central High School graduate, and Kaitlyn Williams. “We’ve just completed our first successful year there,” Lutterman said. “We’re going to continue through another season through 2019.” Lutterman, a Zionsville resident, said the band has been together since 2004. “We have professionals from all over central Indiana, mainly from Indianapolis and surrounding areas that make up the band,” Lutterman said. “Most of the guys are in music and make their living playing.” The band has set itself up as a nonprofit. “We operate just like symphony bands do, like the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra,” Lutterman said. “We have a board of directors. We have a funding plan. We have a concert series. Instead of focusing on the classical music, we focus on the big band music to try to make that a venue for people that like big band music.” This is the band’s fourth of five concerts in the 2016-17 season. There are six concerts planned for the 2017-18 season. Some of the Gershwin songs the band will play are “Embraceable You,” “I Got

Rhythm” and “Strike Up The Band.” There will be a rendition of “Rhapsody in Blue” in big band-style. “I like any of the music in the big band idiom,” Lutterman said. “Any time we can feature a Great American Songbook musician, we do. We also do Duke Ellington, Glenn Miller, Cole Porter and Hoagy Carmichael.” Greenwell, a former Lawrence
Central High School teacher and band director, has played trumpet with the band since 2004. “We’ve certainly done his music quite a few times,” Greenwell said of Gershwin. “It certainly has an interest because it’s such a great part of the American Songbook. It’s usually a pretty popular concert for us.”
attend “gershwin by george” What: Heartland Big Band presents “Gershwin by George!” When: 7 p.m. May 5-6. Where: Theater at the Fort, 8920 Otis Ave., Indianapolis. Site: The theater at Fort Benjamin Harrison opened in 1929, showing movies and band performances for military members and their families. Tickets: $20 for adults, $17 for students and military with ID. For more: heartlandbigband.org and artsforlawrence.org
Teaching still a passion
For Randy Greenwell, it was the perfect way to bow out. After leading the Lawrence Township band in the Rose Parade in January, he retired after 24 years as director. Lawrence Central and Lawrence North merged high school bands three years ago. Greenwell led the Lawrence Central band into the 2005 Rose Parade. Greenwell, 55, spent 32 years as a teacher, including 24 years at Lawrence Central. He guided Lawrence Central Marching Band to four Indiana State School Music Greenwell Association state titles and nine runner-up finishes. He took a job with Conn-Selmer as educational support manager for the central region instrument. Conn-Selmer, headquartered in Elkhart, is the leading manufacturer and distributor of musical instruments for student, amateur and professional use. “I think it was time for a change,” said Greenwell, a Pendleton resident. “This is affording me the opportunity to do a lot of clinic work. That’s why I’m excited about the opportunity with Heartland to be able to work with high school kids and offer them opportunities to pursue their love for performing jazz music and giving them an opportunity and another outlet aside from their regular school situation. This gives me the opportunity to still serve in a teaching capacity of some sort without being a full-time teacher, which is nice.” Greenwell said the band is in the process of developing an educational series to help outreach to school kids and give them opportunities to work with professional musicians. “We’re going to try to do All-State Band with high school youth in the area and bring in a guest artist to perform with them,” he said. “We’re also going to attempt to do a side-by-side concert similar to what the ISO (Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra) attempts to do with its side-by-side (program). We’d have kids audition, and they have the chance to sit in with the band.” Greenwell plans to propose some dates at an upcoming board meeting. “It’s tough because you don’t want to interfere with school programs, so finding the best dates is going to be a challenge,” Greenwell said.

It does not indicate that one “spends thriftily” but, instead, that one is extravagant. If we are lucky, weekly paychecks will come – and go – with very little notice. Certainly, we support the needs of good government and our fellow humans. Yet, rarely do we dig deeper into our own monthly budgets to make others’ flow more easily. Rightly, we challenge tax increases and push for fiscal prudence when spending our hard-earned income, property and other assets. We demand thoughtful and strict management – not for our convenience or greed, but from a well-placed expectation of those elected and selected to work on our behalf. So comes now, the new phenomena, in our home state, at least, of the school referendum. Some demand steep increases or threaten dire consequences. A district a few short miles to the north of here is already divesting itself of buildings, teachers and programs to stay afloat. But our own local schools are working to prove value as they hope that we taxpayers consider a reinvestment in their work – and their outcomes. Carmel Clay Schools, for example, is proposing a replacement for an expiring rate without increase. Our citizenry is among the best-educated in the nation. Strong schools can ensure that we keep it that way. Supporting these referendums seems both affordable and essential. Spend with thrift, yes, but spend as necessary.

A return to civic engagement
Editor, In the wake of the contentious primary and general elections, it seems that the gap between political parties in both substance and civility has never been wider. In 2008, I had the opportunity to travel abroad and visit three European cities: Paris, Brussels and London. While navigating the London underground (subway), I noticed a saying on the train platform that states “Mind the Gap,” cautioning riders about the separation between the platform and the train. The sign serves as a warning for London’s travelers; we can use it as a guidepost for returning to civic engagement. We should be “minding the gap,” or differences, to better understand all sides of an argument. Never in history have we had more
ways to communicate. Yet ironically, we don’t really talk to each other. As an elected official, some of my most gratifying conversations with residents have featured disagreements. Why? Because I love the opportunity to engage, persuade and learn. Being caught in an echo chamber and never hearing new ideas is dangerous, and frankly not very interesting. Together we face serious challenges on national, state and local levels. The solutions will be found with more engagement, not less, and from people with diverse and wide-ranging backgrounds, experiences and skills both inside and outside the political arena. We have to “mind the gap” and engage each other in substance, yet respectfully in style. Eric Moeller
I don’t always shop outside of my neighborhood grocery store, but when I do, I prefer Walmart. There. I said it. I humor love the cheap stuff. I love the diversity of clientele and I love that there’s a strong possibility I’ll spot a mouse in cosmetics (true story). My husband Doo feels differently and won’t step foot in the retail giant unless forced to do so under threat of death. He cites shoddy products, horror movie fluorescent lighting and the fact that the sheer number of customers at any given time is in clear violation of the fire code. I think he’s a snob. Recently, I had to go to Walmart twice on the same day, unusual for me as I live less than a mile from Meijer. My first run was to pick up invitations at the photo department. Doo agreed to drop me off, though he absolutely refused to go in (chicken!). Boy, did he miss out. In that short five minutes (well, more like 20), I saw beautiful Easter lilies for $3.98 (Meijer’s were $7 and Lowe’s $19.99!), a young couple having an extremely vocal argument over dog food and about 20 items I didn’t know I needed until I did. I had a fascinating conversation with the cashier over my preferred brand of sunscreen while enjoying the sweet, sweet smell of baking bread at the in-store Subway. For my final act of amazement, I found Doo in the parking lot in under three minutes. Later, I returned to Walmart because Meijer, Kroger and Target were all out of shredded hash brown potatoes. I know! Bizarre. Walmart didn’t have them, either, but I did make two new friends in the frozen vegetable aisle as we lamented the scarcity of spuds and wondered whether cubed-style might be a realistic substitute. I’m a loyal Meijer customer, but I do love a good Walmart adventure. Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may email her at danielle@ currentincarmel.com.

A season of change Commentary by Rev. Michael VandenBerg Easter! It is he highest point of the Christian calendar, and for good reason. Without the Easter events, the world we faith live in would be a darker place. Without the Easter events, hope would be dimmer, life would be less valued, miracles would be only a shadow of what they are and forgiveness would be either a constant worry or unimaginable request. You see, Jesus changed the course of history for all times. He literally turned the line of history back toward God and gave each of us the opportunity to re-establish our relationship with the loving creator who gave us life, love and perfection. In the Easter events we learned that there is so much more than just a “settling for the OK” world because Jesus showed us that life with God can be perfect and not just OK. The timeline of events carry us through a new world view of hope and joy. Palm Sunday teaches us of the triumphant Christ who comes as God’s holy emissary. Maundy Thursday taught us that death itself cannot steal the life of God’s servant, but He willingly gives it up to pay the price for our
waywardness. Good Friday speaks to us of the unimaginable love that God has for us, His creation, that he would give His own son to pay the price of justice for our failings. In addition, Easter screams to us that God wins, the price has been paid, death is defeated and life is now fuller. You may or may not be a believer, but the season of change still has affected your life. Our system of justice reflects God’s commands. Science came about as our effort to explore God’s creation. Education was set up to teach God’s word and to pass on all that we had learned about God, and the egalitarian nature of our society was the result of the way God views all of us. All this because God so loved us that He gave His only Son to pay the price for our broken and wayward lives. Happy Easter season. Rev. Michael VandenBerg is the pastor of Hope Community Church, a congregation of the Christian Reformed Church, and a community consultant for City in the Church Consulting. He and his wife Nancy have been Indiana residents for over 17 years and Indianapolis residents since 2008. He can be contacted at office@indyhopecrc.org.
Christianity to me Commentary by Mike Colaw The title of Christian to me isn’t a badge of superiority but an adreligion mission of inferiority. It’s a public confession that I am flawed and am willing to admit it. The title of Christian isn’t a defense of my mistakes but a full owning of them. Because I choose to identify as a believer and walk in the regular Christian community means I allow my brothers and sisters to hold me accountable. I desire righteousness more than being right. The journey of Christianity to me gave answers to things nothing else could. The years of reading every science book I could find and watching countless lectures and documentaries left me with a little more clarity on what is but not why it is or even why I care about why it is at all! How and why did humans evolve a deep hunger for the metaphysical if there is no way to satisfy it? World religions eluded to this and admit it exists, Jesus became flesh and blood and quenched this hunger in a way that produced billions and billions of

followers. Many of my closest friends hold doctorates in areas like philosophy or medicine. None of us have problems with faith and science. As humanity looks ever deeper into what is, our hearts rest in the knowledge of why it is. A true sense of sentient purpose bathes discovery. The artistic beauty found in everything from microbiology to astronomy has an artist, and that artist has a name. As a Christian, I am learning to separate identity and worth from money, power and influence. I believe my greatest joys and deepest pleasures come after this life, and the more I believe this the less I feel the fear of failure now. Christian hope wars against insignificance. To me, Christianity is limitlessly freeing. I can be fully known, fully loved and know there is purpose. Mike Colaw is the director of ministries at Trinity Church.

Caving in on sleep Commentary by Dick Wolfsie
Let history be a part of your special event at Lindley Farmstead, a beautifully restored 1834 classic barn
Arshid Chowdhury has invented something called a sleep pod, a high-tech structure that can be seen in sevhumor eral airports around the nation. Crawl into the enclosure and you can catch 40 winks for around 20 bucks, or about 50 cents a wink. Chowdhury’s pods have encountered some problems. Many customers have trouble nodding off while nesting. Some travelers just stare into space with their eyes wide open, something most people can already do at their place of employment and actually get paid for it. Mr. Chowdhury also writes a blog, another fool-proof way to put people to sleep quickly. His newest entry just last week has an intriguing title: “My wife and I slept in a cave for 10 years.” Apparently, AC and his wife bought a new home several years ago and discovered it had a windowless, soundproof den tucked away inside. The Chowdhurys then labeled this their sleep cave, although the police have since told the Chowdhurys that the former owners had called it their meth lab. AC wanted to see what would happen if
the couple slept in a room that was pitch black and totally silent. Of course, they could have just slept in their own bedroom and pulled the shades, but that would have made their blog seem even less interesting. The Chowdhurys have slept in complete darkness since 2007 but admit there are drawbacks. First, the couple has overslept for all nine jobs they’ve been fired from over the past 10 years. Plus, Mrs. Chowdhury was a morning person who used to gleefully bound out of bed when she awoke, bolting for the front door, eager to start her day. This is tough in a sleep cave. Neighbors had a lot of questions for Mr. Chowdhury about his wife’s frequent head injuries. Two years ago they had a little baby boy who’s been keeping them awake at night. He’s not frightened of the dark so much, but the bats are scaring the heck out of him.

Every year, the Fishers High School baseball team holds its Strike Out Kancer game. The event will take place at 6 p.m. April 28 during the varsity philanthropy baseball game. The event raises money for local cancer-related causes. “Every year we pick a game to raise money for something cancer-related. In the past, we always used to donate to the American Cancer Society. Then last year we started picking a foundation around the area or someone close to Fishers High School to support,” FHS baseball coach Matthew Cherry said. “This year we’re going to be raising money for Halle Guilliam, whose older sister is a softball player here at FHS. Halle’s fighting cancer now.” Guilliam was diagnosed with medulloblastoma in 2016. She is being treated at Riley Hospital for Children and Northwestern University. She’s undergone extensive surgery and chemotherapy. “The funds raised from this event will go directly to Halle’s family to help offset the costs surrounding childhood cancer treatment, and everything that goes with

Guests can sponsor an inning of the game in memory or honor of a loved one. There will be a silent auction. Cancer survivors are invited onto the field during the
national anthem. “Halle always has a smile on her face, even on the toughest days she will crack a smile,” Halle’s mom Kara stated in an email to Current. For more, visit fisherstigersathletics. com/baseball.

Dispatches Credit score myths — Here are some common myths about credit scores: 1. Myth - Checking your own credit hurts your score. Truth - Only inquiries from third parties, such as when you apply for a loan or a credit card, can lower your score. 2. Myth - Working with a credit-counseling agency is reported to credit bureaus. Truth - Seeking advice is not reported, but taking action based on that advice may affect your credit score. 3. Myth - A low credit score may stop you from getting a job. Truth - Employers may obtain your credit report but not your score. It is illegal to use credit scores to screen potential employees. Source: GoBankingRates.com.

Where’s Amy attended the Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre’s performance of “Superhero: The story of a man called Jesus” at the Tarkington Theatre. This outstanding masterpiece was inspiring, powerful and captivating. Brilliant and colorful costumes, music and dramatic lighting designs by Ryan Koharchik created a perfect blend to highlight the professional multi-talented and dedicated dancers. “Superhero” made my Easter holiday complete, and I cannot stop thinking about this show. Bravo and a well-deserved standing ovation to my brilliant and kind-hearted friend Gregory Hancock for bringing this magical production that highlights the real superhero of all time, who was a man called Jesus. I urge you to attend the company’s next production of “A Night in India,” where you will be mesmerized by GHDT music and dance. Where’s Amy can’t wait to see you there.

Blueprint for Improvement: Creating contemporary first-floor look Commentary by Larry Greene
After solutions:
After
The goal was an updated kitchen with better flow and aesthetics and cosmetically update the family room and adjoining spaces. 1. In the kitchen, the design incorporated taller cabinets, creating more storage. New Cambria quartz countertops, new tile backsplash and new appliances were installed. The island was enlarged to create more seating and storage. A microwave was added as well. 2. The dry bar was updated with new cabinets and countertops to create additional storage. 3. The living room fireplace was updated with a new, modern gas fireplace insert, tile surround and flanking bookshelves. 4. The powder bath now features a wallpapered accent wall that gives the space the style it was lacking. 5. New dark engineered hardwood flooring was installed throughout the main level.
Before Background Info: This 2004-built home in the Shelborne Park subdivision in Carmel was in need of several aesthetic updates and additional storage.
Before problems: Even though only a 13-year-old home, the owners wanted to update, add storage and create a more stylistic, modern look. The kitchen cabinets were outdated and the island shape and lack of storage created functional challenges. The adjacent living room fireplace and powder bath also were in need of an update.
