Charming Kitchen Makeover (Houston, TX)

This home in northwest Houston was in need of a kitchen remodel. It started out as a dated and cramped space. Now it is charming and cheerful because of just a few simple changes that made a BIG impact. A banquet replaced the kitchen bar, the breakfast room was turned into a sitting area, and a custom built entertainment center was added to the space. Color transformed this kitchen with a delicate shade of gray paint on the walls and bold, bright fabrics on the windows and furnishings..

We only design, build, and remodel homes that brilliantly reflect the unadorned beauty of everyday living.

However, the lighting has been updated, a built-in banquet sits where a kitchen bar used to be and all the windows were replaced. An updated paint color and bold...

The countertops are Brazillian Brown Sile Stone with an Ogee Demi Bullnose edge. They are durable and will stand the test of time. As well, they are easy to live with because they hide little messes well.

The homeowners refer to this space as a tea room. It has two bright and comfortable chairs placed in front of new energy efficiant windows. Originally the room had French doors but replacing them with the windows allowed for the space to function in many capacities, not just a breakfast room.
