The owners came to us for help with their Kitchen, about 13′ square and interrupted by doors on three sides. They wanted to improve connections between the living spaces and maintain access to their deck.

Working within the existing footprint, we reconfigured the Kitchen so it opens to the Dining Room, which is now more open to the Living Room.

During construction we created mockups for things the client wasn’t sure about, like the arched opening between the Kitchen and Dining Room. The owners took our suggestions to extend backsplash tile to the ceiling and add more LED lighting to the tray ceiling in the Dining Room.

The adjacent pergola and deck weren’t part of the original scope or budget, but had been problematic in the connection between the Kitchen and outdoors. The owners accepted our proposal to rebuild the pergola after we’d started construction, which made the indoor/outdoor aspect of the project more cohesive.
