The table and chairs are the only part of this kitchen-dining room that pre-dates the remodel. The new kitchen of Lyptus and paint was to be brand new but not look it. Concrete countertops helped maintain the earthy look.

To make the storage adequate and also define a dining area in the new open floorplan I designed a painted 'breakfront' with a wood countertop. Nothing personalizes a space like ones own objects on display!

Originally the sofa and kitchen and dining were separated by an off center wall. Now the homeowners can entertain three times as many guests and feel like they have a new home.

storage, storage, storage. Gotta love it.

Light selection is so important. It holds that middle space that right at eye level and can (should) define the personality of the space.
