Atlanta Glass and Mirror Contributes to Aimee’s Wing
Posted by: | Comments
One of the additions to Aimee's Wing completed by Atlanta Glass and Mirror
Construction Resources company Atlanta Glass and Mirror is proud to have helped create Aimee’s Wing, the home addition for Aimee Copeland. This almost 2,000 square foot addition was made possible by the generosity of many builders, suppliers and contractors to help Aimee get around her home easier and begin rehabilitation. Aimee suffered a deep cut during a zip lining accident in May and then contracted a rare, flesh eating bacterial infection that lead to the amputation of one of her legs and both of her hands.
This addition was done “Extreme Makeover” style with a legion of volunteers and completed in less than one month. The addition features a study, bedroom, elevator and exercise studio, where Atlanta Glass and Mirror installed two mirror walls and towel racks. Atlanta Glass and Mirror also installed adjustable closet maid wire shelving in her bedroom closet and vanity mirrors in her bathroom. The home addition was spearheaded by Pulte Homes, who worked with Aimee to make sure the functionality and design met her needs. The Home Depot also helped remodel the great room and kitchen.

There’s certainly a happy customer in Philadelphia, who is enjoying a Saratoga Soapstone counter surface in his “MLB mancave” courtesy of DIY network House Crashers. The show turned the home’s plain jane family room into a shrine to everything baseball. You can see a great overview of the show above, and it is still airing as part of the show’s fifth season. If you prefer not to watch on air, the episode will be available for purchase on iTunes soon.
The renovation started by destroying the family room. The crew demolished a brick wall to make room for the many improvements, which spanned into the outdoors. The man cave began with a wet bar of Artisan Group Mineral Black Saratoga Soapstone with eight taps, fueled by a refrigerated set of kegs situated in the basement. The basement is accessible from a specially crafted elevator dubbed the “kegavator,” to ferry kegs and people to keep the eight taps running for thirsty Phanatics. A custom made bar top of signed baseballs in resin forms the bar on the opposite side of the taps with Philadelphia Phillies bar stools. Couches form a secondary viewing area with jerseys and huge photo posters of Citizens Bank Park.
Outside in a redone patio area is the primary viewing area with a huge HDTV screen, authentic stadium seats, state-of-the-art grill, and landscaping Read More→
