This is a beautiful contemporary kitchen we remodeled. Before the remodel the ceilings were lower and there were upper cabinets mounted onto the ceiling. This limited the amount of light that could reach the kitchen and partially blocked the owners' view of their gorgeous back yard through the sliding glass doors. We raised the ceilings and removed the ceiling mounted upper cabinets to open up the space. The owners loved the look of a darker stained cherry cabinet which worked beautifully with a light colored Quartz counter top and complementary tile floors. We expanded a bar area to allow for better use and ran the backsplash tile all the way up to the ceiling behind the range as a lovely accent.
