Here are a few photos of the inside of Michael's new Smart Home:
Flooring & More Carpet One Floor & Home installed all the flooring and tile for the home which was designed to help Michael regain his independence after losing both of his arms and suffering from burns on over 85% of his body while serving in Baghdad. His new home will help him to become more self-sufficient and drastically improve his quality of life.
“It is an honor to install flooring and tile in this custom home designer for Michael,” said Al Gaston, president of Flooring & More Carpet One Floor & Home. “We are excited to see Michael receive the iPad that will control his new smart home.”
