It was a pleasure to work with this family on their first major remodeling project. Their wish was to open up the previously divided dining and kitchen area to create a lighter and brighter kitchen for their growing family. The home was built in the 1930's and had gone through a series of previous renovations and the owners were excited to put their own stamp on it!

We started by removing the walls between the dining room and kitchen, then went to work on replacing everything in the kitchen including all the cabinetry, the countertops, new backsplash, lighting, appliances, and flooring. With the removal of the walls and replacing dark espresso cabinetry with white we were able to begin the transition from dark and dreary to light and bright.

Our design including moving the range from its position in the existing peninsula to a wall, which would allow the new peninsula to become a place for informal meals. We also removed an existing pantry closet to gain more wall space for a larger refrigerator surrounded by built-in pantry cabinets!
