Creative Home Engineering - One of a Kind

This doesn’t have much to do with construction defects, but it is interesting nonetheless. Creative Home Engineering creates secret passageways, and they do it with style. Below is a quote from an older article that appeared in Phoenix’s East Valley Tribune:

“After crossing the short hallway to the master suite, she shows off her bedroom, the beautiful master bathroom, the seethrough gas fireplace and connected patio space. Then she leads her guest up a short flight of stairs to the exercise room, with gorgeous views of the Red Mountains. Coming back down the stairs she pulls from her pocket what looks like a car door remote. She stands back, presses one of the buttons and says, ‘And this is the secret room.’

“The stair case begins to raise and below it is a another set of stairs, this one leading down to a small dark room the same size and shape as the exercise room above it.

“‘Watch your head,’ says Kircher as she crouchees slightly and makes her way down the stairs.”
