This home is a family treasure; my client’s grandmother originally lived there, and my client now has the joy of keeping it in the family. The kitchen was original to the home and was in need of a refresh. My client wished to infuse new life into the space, adding to the home’s longevity.

AFTER

The space originally had a wall between the kitchen and a large front entry. With the wall gone, the space is much more welcoming, and allows for a permanent kitchen island and designated eating area. The client already had the kitchen layout established when I joined the project; I gave it the thumbs up and provided design solutions for the finishes and fixtures. We are thrilled with the rich tone of the cabinetry and how it contrasts with the variation in the flooring. And who doesn’t love a nice pop of blue in a glass tile backsplash?

This family was ready for an update, both aesthetically and functionally. The overall footprint of the kitchen essentially stayed the same, but the space was utilized more efficiently to gain storage and increase countertop space. Cabinetry was added to the wall between kitchen and dining to create a fantastic bar and serving area for this newly revitalized gathering space.

BEFORE

The built-in wall oven was removed to make way for a peninsula, which still left ample space for a large range and chimney style hood. The peninsula not only gave this family significantly more storage and counter space, it also created an eating area that the previous layout was lacking.

AFTER

Durable quartz countertops, two-tone cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a dimensional backsplash tile come together to make this a fantastic kitchen for the family to enjoy for many years.
