I did this family room upgrade in my own house. Here are a couple of pictures of before, during and after. I use Birch Plywood and Popular. I designed, milled and constructed the entire project except for the dental molding around the fireplace surround. All of the doors are raised panel.
My wife was satisfied and that was all that was needed..

Joe, this is really a nice project. You completely transformed the look of the room and added, not only a beautiful piece of furniture, but a lot of storage as well.
Nicely done.

Thanks.
I like it even more now Robb since we replace that old TV for a 52” LCD which I have hanging on an arm…
