Kitchen remodeling in Unterstrass

Unterstrass is Stadt Zürich — Kreis 6's klassizismus + wilhelminische mietshäuser 1870-1910 submarket. Unterstrass is the densest student- + ETH-Mitarbeiter Wohnquartier in Zürich — the Wohnsubstanz between Schaffhauserstrasse and Beckenhofstrasse is ~80% pre-1914 Mietshaus, and Sanierung-projects regularly trip the Stadt Zürich Mietrecht-Mehrwertabgabe because the Mietzinsniveau is artificially compressed by long-term Mieter.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
