If you compare the pictures of this kitchen with the same kitchen we did for this client in 1980 you will see striking similarities in the basic functional layout. The colors, textures, materials, and accent details have changed dramatically in this updated version of this kitchen. The client feels this final kitchen is what they would have done back in 1981 if they could have afforded it at that time. The fact that the client was insistent on not changing anything in the layout from the original kitchen design is a testament to how well that original solution fit this clients needs and maximized the utility of the space in which this kitchen resides. Attention to architectural details insured that this kitchen remodel looked like it was a well designed part of the original home, both inside and out.
