We got this kitchen cabinet for our office - the "countertop" piece in your photo looks like the adjustable shelf that actually goes inside. In our unit there is a 3" or so wide board at the front covering the porcelain behind the doors. The porcelain just sat directly on the sides, back, and front of the cabinet with some grey, gum-like sealant.

On small projects, I have typically seen fees in the 15% range (low of 10% and high of 25%) for architects fees.

On interior projects I've worked on, the permitting fees were roughly 1% of the construction cost, but exterior work requires more paperwork and fees.

One thing for unruly posters:

register - anonymity is great, but it allows you to say some pretty crummy things (guest 8:38)

Hilary is making the bed (the apartment isn't haunted - yea!). We've never fallen out of bed (we've lived here for 3 years) - there is about 12" of wood around the mattress that acts as a sensory warning device. We would open up the space to the kitchen if we owned, but alas, we are renting and saving for a little share of brownstone brooklyn.
