Earlier this month, our entire team attended the groundbreaking of the Las Vegas Showcase House benefiting the Core Academy. It was so exciting to walk through the house and imagine what it will begin to transform into starting NOW! As a design team, it was also a privilege to interact with visitors who stopped by to see our plans for the master bedroom and master bath in Las Vegas’ historic Scotch 80s area.
KLAS TV Channel 8 was at the groundbreaking- check it out HERE!
Team LED’s boards hanging in the space that will soon become the master bedroom, currently the family room.
These pink walls adorn the entire master bathroom for the time being. Our moodboard helped visitors to see what it will morph into.
This brass door knob is what used to welcome all at the front entrance of the home.
The Scotch 80s, an area bordered by Oakey, Rancho, Charleston, and Martin Luther King boulevards, is adjacent to downtown Las Vegas and dates back to the early 1950s. It’s considered the center of old Las Vegas.
See the Stratosphere in the background? The perfect backdrop to the groundbreaking event.
The lion head brass bathroom hardware is typical of the class found located inside the Scotch 80s neighborhood. Stay tuned to see how we incorporate these pulls into the new bathroom design!
Area dignitaries, congresswomen Dina Titus, Chris Giunchigliani, and Gerri Schroeder and our fellow designers were part of the event as were homeowners and Core Academy scholars.

This tree was blown down during a windstorm here in Vegas a few weeks ago. No need to knock it down for construction now! Becky, the owner of the home, climbed up with team LED for a picture opp.
