This elegant kitchen remodel is accented with highlights of brass, stone, and white oak. Our owner, Carl, and designer, Anna, initially spoke to these clients about only refacing the cabinets due to a failing paint finish. During the first meetings with the clients, our team identified that there were many possible improvements that would far outweigh replacing only the cabinet doors. The new kitchen design improves upon the original layout with taller cabinets that reach to the ceiling for increased storage (and no spots to collect dust), lighter marble-look countertops and cabinets, better lighting, a larger window, and three new skylights. Several custom mouldings and cabinet panels were made for this kitchen to add texture to the minimalist color palette, and storage was improved with rearranged cabinet drawers and inserts. The homeowners also wanted to re-use their existing Sub-Zero refrigerator, which was re-clad in new cabinet paneling that helps it disappear into the room. The new unlacquered brass fixtures and hardware will continue to patina over years of use, and add warmth against the Swiss Coffee cabinet color and cherry wood floors. The new kitchen is now a bright and open-feeling space that suits the rest of the home's style!
