This St. Charles, MO client had a set of unique needs and required her laundry room to truly be a multi-purpose space. Her requirements included hanging space, laundry basket, shoe storage, a junk drawer, enclosed shelving for laundry/cleaning supplies and general storage, broom closet and a separate drop zone coming in from the garage with wine storage. We were able to compliment the rest of her home's aesthetic with gray shaker cabinets and crown molding, and finished the design with cabinet hardware to match her existing hardware and other brushed nickel accessories.

Inspiration for a craftsman kitchen remodel in Nashville

Borrowed space from the master bedroom gained a "mud room/drop zone/catch all space" to be envied! There is an L shaped bench and plenty of hooks to store all the lake stuff and shoes that come in through this door. The Barn door acts more like art and character than anything...because this door is always on the move!

The main sink is carved directly out of the travertine slab rather than dropped in, so counter and basin are one continuous piece with no rim to catch. A brass gooseneck sits in front of the garden window.

  Free ebook, Creating the Ideal Kitchen. DOWNLOAD NOW   One of my favorite things to work on is older homes with a bit of history because I find it an interesting challenge to marry the historical architectural features of a home with modern design elements that work well for my client’s current lifestyle. This home was particularly fun because it was the second kitchen we had done for this family and was quite a departure from the style of the first kitchen. The before shot of the kitchen shows a view from the family room. See the dropped ceiling? We were curious, was this just part of the design or was the dropped ceiling there to hide mechanicals? Well we soon found out that it was mostly decorative (yay!), and with the exception of a little bit of work to some plumbing from an upstairs bathroom and rerouting of the ventilation system within the original floor joists, we were in the clear, phew! The shot of the completed kitchen from roughly the same vantage point shows how much taller the ceilings are. It makes a huge difference in the feel of the space. Dark and gloomy turned fresh and light! Another serious consideration was what do we do with the skinny transom window above the refrigerator. After much back and forth, we decided to eliminate it and do some open shelving instead. This ended up being one of the nicest areas in the room. I am calling it the “fun zone” because it houses all the barware, wine cubbies and a bar fridge — the perfect little buffet spot for entertaining. It is flanked on either side by pull out pantries that I’m sure will get a ton of use. Since the neighboring room has literally three walls of almost full height windows, the kitchen gets plenty of light. The gold shelving brackets, large pendant fixtures over the island and the tile mural behind the range all pay subtle homage to the home’s prairie style architecture and bring a bit of sparkle to the room. Even though the room is quite large, the work triangle is very tight with the large Subzero fridge, sink and range all nearby for easy maneuvering during meal prep. There is seating for four at the island, and work aisles are generous.

Unusual flush mount hood turned out to be quite the challenge for the contractor. We solved the issue by bringing the hood down 14" from the 96" high kitchen ceiling, and we finished the drop in drywall to match the ceiling. Photo by Preview First

This property hasn't been updated since the 199o's and was very out-of-date. The client's wish was to keep the rooms light and bright, with a Mid Century, modern twist. This was accomplished with 2 months of prep work and 5 months total for completion. The drab blue carpeting was removed and porcelain hickory honey floors laid throughout, pulling each detail together. The kitchen cabinetry was replaced with driftwood floating shelves and marble countertops. It was kept light and bright with pops of color and an eye catching palm feature wall. Touched off with classic, brass hardware throughout the home, and drop pendant light fixtures. The client was extremely satisfied with the interior design project.
