Walking up to this home you instantly notice the craftsman-style features that set it apart from the next house. Unfortunately, the kitchen just did not blend with that aesthetic, which extends throughout the home, adding character and coziness. Additionally, the homeowner is an avid cook and the existing kitchen was limited in space; lacking much needed functionality and storage.
The main goal of the remodel was to create a chef-worthy kitchen with a place for everything. Step one was eliminating the remainder of the wall that separated the kitchen and living space making for a much more open layout. Furthermore, the existing cased opening to the dining room was closed off to allow for a more usable space in the kitchen. Special attention was paid to each custom cabinet, maximizing the use of every square inch.
Aesthetics and function went hand-in-hand. Not only did we want to emphasize the craftsman style, we also wanted finishes that were extremely durable and would stand the test of time. With this in mind we selected materials that were warm and natural. Earth tones influenced the color palette for this design. The mahogany stained hood pairs perfectly with the custom posts, beams, and corbels that frame the new opening to the kitchen; tying in to the homes existing fireplace millwork. Creamy-white cabinets line the perimeter of the kitchen, matching an existing furniture piece that was incorporated into the remodel. Accents of black throughout add contrast and compliment the terrazzo countertops. A eucalyptus-colored island anchors the space, topped by a unique leathered recycled quartz. Handmade green-toned subway tiles fill the backslash reflecting the color of the island while adding depth.
This kitchen feels very special, and we are thrilled that the homeowners love it as much as we do!

In this remodel, the kitchen underwent a remarkable transformation, evolving from a cramped,
uninspiring space into an elevated culinary haven. Through strategic design choices and
meticulous attention to detail, the once small and cold kitchen blossomed into a spacious focal
point and inviting gathering spot. Floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, adorned with rich maple-stained
wood and accented by gleaming gold hardware, instantly elevated the aesthetic and functionality
of the space. The addition of brand-new appliances further enhanced the kitchen's efficiency and
modern appeal. Removing the wrap-around barstool counter proved to be a pivotal decision, as it
opened up the area, fostering a seamless flow and sense of spaciousness. Adjacent to the kitchen,
a dining room emerged, offering a convenient and inviting space for family meals and
entertaining. To preserve the kitchen's warmth and individuality, vibrant green abstract tiles were
meticulously chosen to line the backsplash, infusing the space with personality and charm. Each
element of the renovation was thoughtfully curated to ensure a harmonious blend of style,
functionality, and comfort, resulting in a kitchen that not only meets but exceeds the needs and
expectations of its inhabitants.

This incredible white tile & marble kitchen is a great example of updating a kitchen without the need of having to replace the cabinetry.
The existing cabinets were in great condition; affording us the ability to make modifications, paint and install new hardware. Rope was removed from the crown of all the cabinets instantly providing an updated look. The desk area was modified by taking out a knee drawer to provide space for a refrigerator and the right cabinet was removed and replaced with a new cabinet that is higher and has a drawer and door. The upper cabinet exposed shelf area was also slightly modified. Overall the changes were few but made a significant impact in the final look of the cabinetry.
The raised bar top was cut down to the same level as the sink creating a larger work area that showcases the beautiful Bianco Carrara Marble that is installed throughout the kitchen. 3x12 cotton white subway tile with a simple wavy design provides texture while still allowing the marble to remain the focal point of the design. The same tile in 3x6 size were laid in a herringbone pattern to draw your attention toward the stove and to break up the streamline layout of the tile.
We love this kitchen and know that you'll be inspired to imagine how you can get an updated kitchen without the cost of having to replace all the cabinetry in your space.

The open concept of this beautiful space creates a pleasant and relaxing environment.
Several key elements are emphasized by walnut wood, such as the island cabinets, the veneers, and the amazing wine cellar, which instantly attracts attention. Speaking of eye-catchers, you’ve undoubtedly noticed the unique black matte polymer materials that cover some of the kitchen cabinets. Our designers have gone a step further and chose to add TIP-ON touch latch technology to cabinet doors and drawers in order to remove any handles and to make opening and closing easy.

Our client in Inverallochy near Fraserburgh approached us with a vision for their project. The goal was to not just update their kitchen but also reconfigure the space by taking down partitions for a more fluid layout.
For the Inverallochy kitchen, we selected the Nolte Metal range. The main door's Grey Steel colour was paired with an accent in Kansas Oak, offering a harmonious blend of modern and traditional tones. The Silver MatrixArt handleless trims, coupled with integrated lighting, further elevated the design's sleek aesthetic.
Our choice of worktops included 20mm Silestone Eternal Serena Suede for the island and Nolte 25mm Kansas Oak for the perimeter. In terms of appliances, we integrated a comprehensive suite of Siemens products: from the single oven and combination microwave to the warming drawer, induction hob, and a unique ceiling extraction unit. The addition of a full-height fridge and a 600mm wine cooler ensured every culinary need was met.
Attention to detail was key. We incorporated a Blanco Zia 1 ½ sink in Alumetallic and a Quooker Fusion Square Stainless Steel instant boiling water tap for added functionality. A noteworthy design feature was the extractor built into a ceiling drop box, accentuated by a stepped ledge with dedicated lighting. Pergo flooring provided the finishing touch, ensuring durability and style.
