Part of an extensive home remodel, this kitchen design was born of one man’s love of all things Harley Davidson. Color inspiration came from the client’s own cherished bike which was a stunning combination of matte black and brushed steel. The client’s wish was to have a large open area in which he could “be one with his guests” when hosting large gatherings.
Cabinets, hardware and appliances all in black allow the focus to be on the beauty of the larger architectural elements as a whole. Included along the main storage wall is a hidden 42” refrigerator, dual pull-out pantries, and extra wide drawers below a pair of upper cabinets with matte black glass fold-up doors that open & close automatically via servo-drive technology.
The new island - which measures just shy of 16 ½ feet! - is a true central point around which all action revolves. Wide walkways on either side provide ease of flow for multiple sous chefs and guests alike. A textured cypress soffit above the island was designed to house the modern hood and also create a feeling of unity as it is the same size as the island below. Textured cypress wood also wraps matte black cabinetry and lines the main wall, changing grain direction to provide visual interest.
The 5’ Galley Workstation is a multi-functional marvel, easily transitioning from prep station to serving surface to clean-up with the addition of its built-in accessories. Placing an undercounter wine refrigerator on the back side of the island makes it easy for guests at the bar to help themselves. Close to the bar seating area, a 42” flat screen tv fits perfectly flush in the wall, practically disappearing when not in use.
Unique details include a large display cabinet with a metal framed front & side crafted out of steel by a local artisan. The glass is 2-way mirror so when the interior light is off, the treasure is concealed inside. The interior is painted in the trademark Harley orange.
Above a modern dining table, a one-of-a-kind chandelier was created from 3 bike helmets, painted in Harley orange by a local automobile detail shop. The interiors are finished in metallic silver for extra glow.
Adjacent to the Kitchen, and initially deceiving in its simplicity, the main tv wall was quite complex and challenging to realize. It has a convex curve from left to right and slopes back from floor to ceiling. The interior hollow space created room for a shallow tv niche on top and partially recessed deep media storage cabinets below. The planning and framing involved to create the proper compound miter connections required extra diligence from the designers and builder, but the finished product was worth the effort!

Our clients house was built in 2012, so it was not that outdated, it was just dark. The clients wanted to lighten the kitchen and create something that was their own, using more unique products. The master bath needed to be updated and they wanted the upstairs game room to be more functional for their family.
The original kitchen was very dark and all brown. The cabinets were stained dark brown, the countertops were a dark brown and black granite, with a beige backsplash. We kept the dark cabinets but lightened everything else. A new translucent frosted glass pantry door was installed to soften the feel of the kitchen. The main architecture in the kitchen stayed the same but the clients wanted to change the coffee bar into a wine bar, so we removed the upper cabinet door above a small cabinet and installed two X-style wine storage shelves instead. An undermount farm sink was installed with a 23” tall main faucet for more functionality. We replaced the chandelier over the island with a beautiful Arhaus Poppy large antique brass chandelier. Two new pendants were installed over the sink from West Elm with a much more modern feel than before, not to mention much brighter. The once dark backsplash was now a bright ocean honed marble mosaic 2”x4” a top the QM Calacatta Miel quartz countertops. We installed undercabinet lighting and added over-cabinet LED tape strip lighting to add even more light into the kitchen.
We basically gutted the Master bathroom and started from scratch. We demoed the shower walls, ceiling over tub/shower, demoed the countertops, plumbing fixtures, shutters over the tub and the wall tile and flooring. We reframed the vaulted ceiling over the shower and added an access panel in the water closet for a digital shower valve. A raised platform was added under the tub/shower for a shower slope to existing drain. The shower floor was Carrara Herringbone tile, accented with Bianco Venatino Honed marble and Metro White glossy ceramic 4”x16” tile on the walls. We then added a bench and a Kohler 8” rain showerhead to finish off the shower. The walk-in shower was sectioned off with a frameless clear anti-spot treated glass. The tub was not important to the clients, although they wanted to keep one for resale value. A Japanese soaker tub was installed, which the kids love! To finish off the master bath, the walls were painted with SW Agreeable Gray and the existing cabinets were painted SW Mega Greige for an updated look. Four Pottery Barn Mercer wall sconces were added between the new beautiful Distressed Silver leaf mirrors instead of the three existing over-mirror vanity bars that were originally there. QM Calacatta Miel countertops were installed which definitely brightened up the room!
Originally, the upstairs game room had nothing but a built-in bar in one corner. The clients wanted this to be more of a media room but still wanted to have a kitchenette upstairs. We had to remove the original plumbing and electrical and move it to where the new cabinets were. We installed 16’ of cabinets between the windows on one wall. Plank and Mill reclaimed barn wood plank veneers were used on the accent wall in between the cabinets as a backing for the wall mounted TV above the QM Calacatta Miel countertops. A kitchenette was installed to one end, housing a sink and a beverage fridge, so the clients can still have the best of both worlds. LED tape lighting was added above the cabinets for additional lighting. The clients love their updated rooms and feel that house really works for their family now.

From the 80's dark and dated to today's light, airy and fresh, our Revival House designer transformed this lake home into an absolute stunner. This lake home's updated interior space is as beautiful as the lake view it faces.
This Midwest Hampton's Style Lake Home is a blend of coastal charm and relaxed elegance that combines casual living with luxury. Inspired by the beaches of Long Island's Hamptons region, this style is known for being timeless, versatile, and sought-after. Whites, creams, and neutrals combined with shades of blues and greens flood the rooms with a coastal calming, elegance. The spacious, open floor plan of the kitchen and family room make for easy entertaining.
This project was a full home remodel with the kitchen as the show-stopping hub. All the cabinets in this home are done in Decor's Clear Alder. In the kitchen, the perimeter cabinets and the island's apron and legs are finished with Decor's custom Sea Glass stain. The built-in banquette seating and the island base are stained Foam. The addition of stout, decorative turned post legs to the island adds a traditional touch and conveys a sense of stability.
The additional prep area cabinets are stained in Reef, a beautiful, subtle blue with a hint of glaze. Antique silver metal wire mesh inserts are included in several of the wall cabinets in the pantry, giving the room a nod to the historic.
Inspired by Victorian-era tin tiles, the porcelain backsplash tiles mimic decorative plaster with their weathered and aged look. The tile’s white and gray tones provide a contemporary color scheme while adding vintage charm to both the kitchen and pantry. The tile choice for these spaces is similar in style but different in size and layout, making each space unique without sacrificing continuity.
Cambria’s Ella countertops in a matte finish adds a luxurious velvety touch to this kitchen, tying the cabinet colors together with a single countertop color, giving the space a cohesive look and making meal prep and clean up delightfully simple. Brushed nickel cabinet pulls and knobs from Atlas' Bradbury collection add the perfect amount of shine in a perfectly subtle way.
This remodel included the primary bath and the powder bathroom. Like in the kitchen and prep area, the Decor cabinetry door style in all the bathroom spaces was kept consistent, uniting all the areas with cabinetry.
The cabinets in the primary bathroom are painted in Slate while the powder bathroom vanity is stained in Reef. As with the kitchen, both bathroom vanities are decked out in top-of-the-line Cambria quartz countertop in Ella Matte. The classic, polished chrome pulls from the Tob Knobs Ormonde collection brighten the room and lend an air of classic luxury. The floors are covered with white hexagon tiles from Ceramic Tile Works, to keep things neutral, bright, and easy to clean. Gorgeous Kohler bath fixtures were used in both spaces. These faucets effortlessly combine form and function, adding beauty to these spaces.
The design choices and selections for every space were masterfully planned to create a dream home for their client, done in a style that would equal any home in the Hamptons.

Franklin County's Leading General Contractors - 2X Best of Houzz!

This multi-room refresh is a masterclass in how targeted, strategic updates can completely transform the feeling of a home without requiring a full gut renovation. By keeping the existing raised-panel cabinetry and investing instead in new countertops, a showstopping backsplash, updated lighting, and bold paint choices, this project delivers maximum impact for the investment — and the results are stunning.
The Kitchen
The existing white raised-panel cabinetry — with its elegant arched door profiles and traditional detailing — was retained and freshly painted in a crisp, bright white, instantly modernizing what was there and giving it new life. The real transformation came through the new materials layered in around those cabinets. White quartz countertops with a subtle veining pattern replace dated surfaces throughout, their clean, polished surface making the entire kitchen feel newer, lighter, and more refined.
The backsplash is the kitchen's true conversation piece — a full field of diamond-pattern marble mosaic tile in soft white, warm gray, and cool silver. The geometric pattern adds visual movement and texture across every wall surface, catching the light beautifully and giving the kitchen a jewel-like quality that feels both traditional and fashion-forward. Up close, the variation in the natural marble within each tile adds depth and complexity that no painted or printed surface could replicate.
The island received the boldest treatment of all — repainted in a deep navy blue that creates a dramatic two-tone contrast against the white perimeter cabinets. Topped with matching white quartz and fitted with an induction cooktop flush to the surface, it functions as both a culinary workhorse and a design anchor. Warm wood bar stools pull up to the island's overhang, adding an organic contrast to the cool navy and white palette.
New lighting completes the kitchen's transformation. A cluster of three clear glass pendant lights with oil-rubbed bronze hardware hangs above the island in staggered heights, their Edison-style bulbs casting a warm, ambient glow that feels simultaneously modern and nod to vintage industrial style. A matching single pendant illuminates the arched sink window — a beautiful architectural feature that frames a garden view and floods the space with natural light.
The Powder Rooms
Two powder rooms received personality-packed makeovers that prove small spaces are the perfect canvas for bold design statements.
The main powder room is an absolute showstopper: floor-to-ceiling botanical wallpaper in deep navy blue covered in delicate white magnolia blossoms creates an immersive, garden-in-the-evening atmosphere. A classic white pedestal sink, a frameless oval mirror, and polished nickel wall sconces with white drum shades keep the fixtures restrained and elegant — letting the wallpaper be the undisputed star. Crown molding at the ceiling and warm oak flooring ground the space beautifully.
A second bathroom refresh features a textured blue-gray grasscloth-look wallcovering that adds subtle, sophisticated texture to every surface. Paired with a warm wood vanity, quartz countertop, and brushed nickel fixtures, this space feels calm and collected — a quiet retreat that balances the more dramatic main powder room.

Richmond Commercial Painting provides full-service Milwaukee commercial interior painting for commercial buildings.We are skilled at applying all types of floor and wall coverings. We perform electrostatic painting for heat registers, bathroom stalls, or elevator doors and frames.
There is a lot more to commercial interior painting than just brushing, rolling or spraying a coating on a substrate. Preparation for painting, particularly on rehabilitation jobs, can be very involved and require elaborate equipment and technical expertise. In commercial painting and repaints there is usually production and office equipment and furniture to protect. There is a need for project coordination to assure the smooth, non-disruptive flow of the work.
Milwaukee commercial interior painting often calls for specialized coatings because of environmental and high traffic concerns. The right equipment and expertise are required for the proper application of highly technical coatings. Unlike some of the other painting companies in the area, these production elements are readily available at Richmond Painting. The highly experienced staff of project coordinators and applicators is familiar with the equipment and coatings materials to assure owners of the best possible experience in any commercial interior painting project.

To finish off the master bath, the walls were painted with SW Agreeable Gray and the existing cabinets were painted SW Mega Greige for an updated look. Four Pottery Barn Mercer wall sconces were added between the new beautiful Distressed Silver leaf mirrors instead of the three existing over-mirror vanity bars that were originally there. QM Calacatta Miel countertops were installed which definitely brightened up the room!
Originally, the upstairs game room had nothing but a built-in bar in one corner. The clients wanted this to be more of a media room but still wanted to have a kitchenette upstairs. We had to remove the original plumbing and electrical and move it to where the new cabinets were. We installed 16’ of cabinets between the windows on one wall. Plank and Mill reclaimed barn wood plank veneers were used on the accent wall in between the cabinets as a backing for the wall mounted TV above the QM Calacatta Miel countertops. A kitchenette was installed to one end, housing a sink and a beverage fridge, so the clients can still have the best of both worlds. LED tape lighting was added above the cabinets for additional lighting. The clients love their updated rooms and feel that house really works for their family now.

The major kitchen renovation of this old country farmhouse was a task of love, one that had been planned for many years by these Barrington seasoned homeowners. After interviewing no less than five companies, the homeowners chose the design team at Advance Design Studio to make the transformation they had long planned for.
“They had an understanding of the right design for the space almost from the instant they walked in the room”, says Sharon Scott of the design team of Nicole Ryan at Todd Jurs at Advance Design Studio. “They were the only designers who laid out ideas in the first meeting at the house that we really loved”, she says. “It was obvious that they understood the house, and understood us - and from then on the decision to hire them literally made itself”.
The original kitchen had a dividing “wall” of cabinetry…that made the rather large space seem very small, and cut off the kitchen from the eating area that has a beautiful garden view completely hidden from the main kitchen. Circulation was poor, leaving family members on top of one another when entertaining family and friends.
The new kitchen design nearly doubles the kitchen size within the original space; opening it up completely and enjoying an expansive island containing a new Kohler Whitehaven Smart Divide farm sink, a dishwasher, and pull out double trash receptacle. The great new gathering space accommodates four pull out stools beckoning grandchildren and friends alike. Removing the range from the island and relocating it to create a dramatic “feature” wall, completely out of the way of guests; it is now crowned with a beautiful completely customized wood hood designed to ventilate much more efficiently than the original island range containing a limited downdraft system.
The much more efficient use of the space after removing a pantry closet made way for a fully functional “tall wall” housing a double oven and refrigerator, out of the way of guests. Removing the restrictive cabinetry wall now allowed for an expansive floor to ceiling pantry cabinet with full extension pull out shelving, and an elegant display area complete with a beautiful furniture detailed buffet.
Fitting perfectly into the farmhouse charm of the old estate, Medallion Silver Lancaster cabinetry was chosen in a soft white Maple Divinity paint finish lining the perimeter. The stunning island hints to this old home’s past with Medallion Gold’s Maple Devonshire style graced with a Carriage Black Heirloom painted finish. The rubbed off black paint finish reveals the soft wood tones beneath, mimicking furniture you’d see in your grandmother’s home that has lovingly been polished for years to reveal a soft, subtly rubbed-off sheen.
Counter tops reverse contrast with perimeter tops of black “Raven” granite possessing a subtle honed finish, and a shift to Quartz Difinity Viareggio - resembling white Carrera marble on the island. A simple herringbone detail completes the decorative range wall, and subtle porcelain subway tiles grace the backsplash throughout.
The design is finished off with crisp Thermador and Bosch stainless steel appliances, and bright brushed cup pull and handle combination hardware. A pull down Kohler Bellaria faucet makes cleanup a breeze, and soft under-cabinet LED lighting throughout makes every work surface shine softly, and highlights the cabinetry display area with grace.
One special detail was created to make the dramatic ceiling transition to a vaulted area above the breakfast nook extra special. A tongue and groove solid wood ceiling was hung above, and a subtle greenish-grey distressed paint finish was hand developed on site by the talented crew, complementing the new kitchen with a completely unique surface that appears as if it’s been there for many, many years. It’s just one standout feature in the amazing new space that is sure to be in every conversation as newcomers enjoy the newest best hangout in this old home renewed!
After 30 years of renovating homes, this now content homeowner sips a cup of tea enjoying her new garden view, and reminisces projects of past – and lastly reports their experience with Advance Design Studio culminating with their amazing new kitchen to be the most enjoyable and satisfying home experience yet.
