In the kitchen we re-worked a load-bearing wall to create a peninsula, opening the kitchen to the family room. The large windows, custom white and glass cabinetry, white quartzite counters and white marble backsplash work beautifully together to create a light-filled airy kitchen. The custom hood and pot filler over the range and the custom cabinetry and storage are special touches that we added to tailor this kitchen to the homeowners. Throughout the first floor, we added new red oak flooring. The main projects in this Wayne, PA home were renovating the kitchen and the master bathroom, but we also updated the mudroom and the dining room. Using different materials and textures in light colors, we opened up and brightened this lovely home giving it an overall light and airy feel. Interior Designer Larina Kase, of Wayne, PA, used furniture and accent pieces in bright or contrasting colors that really shine against the light, neutral colored palettes in each room.

Reclaimed wood box beams run the full length of this contemporary kitchen and open concept living space, their warm reddish-brown tones and aged patina creating a striking contrast against a crisp white ceiling, black cabinetry, white marble island, and gold hardware. In a space this refined and modern, the beams do something no other element can: they bring warmth, depth, and a sense of history that keeps the interior from feeling sterile. They connect the kitchen to the living room beyond in a single unbroken line, giving the entire open floor plan a cohesive architectural backbone. Every piece is sourced from 19th and early 20th century structures and prepared through our process of denailing, kiln drying, and precision milling. Whether you are a homebuilder, a home remodeling contractor, or a homeowner looking to add reclaimed wood box beams to a contemporary kitchen or open concept living space, Manomin Resawn Timbers has been helping people discover the antique charm of reclaimed wood since 2002. We ship nationwide and are happy to help you find the right pieces from anywhere in the country. Visit our showroom in Hugo, MN or reach out to us with a call or a message to get started.
