Stepping into this modern kitchen is like entering a realm where elegant minimalism meets sophisticated grandeur. Dominated by the sleek simplicity of slab grey doors and the opulent allure of marble-style quartz countertops, this kitchen strikes a perfect balance between modern design and luxurious detailing.
Upon entering, your eyes are immediately drawn to the slab grey doors. Their understated hue exudes a quiet elegance that's both contemporary and timeless. The sleek, unadorned slab design speaks volumes about the modern design ethos - a celebration of clean lines, simplicity, and uncluttered aesthetics. The grey tone is neutral yet impactful, versatile enough to complement a range of color schemes while adding a hint of sophistication.
Contrasting the understated elegance of the grey slab doors, the marble-style quartz countertops introduce an element of grandeur to the kitchen. They instantly become a statement piece in the room, drawing attention with their captivating patterns and luxurious sheen. The quartz surface is not just aesthetically appealing, but also practical - it's highly durable, heat resistant, and easy to clean, embodying a perfect marriage of beauty and functionality.
The interplay between the smoky grey of the slab doors and the swirling patterns of the marble-style quartz creates a visual spectacle that's nothing short of mesmerizing. The cool tones of the grey slabs accentuate the white veins in the marble quartz, creating a seamless aesthetic flow throughout the kitchen.
State-of-the-art appliances nestle seamlessly into the slab grey units, their modern design and stainless steel finish reinforcing the room's contemporary vibe. Meanwhile, the lighting design enhances the beauty of the quartz countertops, with carefully placed pendants and under-cabinet LEDs accentuating their natural sheen and intricate patterns.
This modern kitchen, with its slab grey doors and marble-style quartz countertops, is a true testament to the idea that simplicity can be luxurious. It offers a visually stunning, highly functional space where every meal preparation becomes an indulgent experience. Here, modernity meets elegance, culminating in a kitchen that's both a pleasure to look at and a joy to use.

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.

By extending the soffit across the entry to the back hall, the ventilation ducting was brought into code compliance while providing additional lighting. Pull-out base pantries were installed on either side of the range for easy access spice and condiment storage.
The support posts at the end of the island could not be removed. However by removing one of the 'decorative' shelves, the line of sight between the range and the sink was opened up for enhanced communications.

Stepping into this modern kitchen is like entering a realm where elegant minimalism meets sophisticated grandeur. Dominated by the sleek simplicity of slab grey doors and the opulent allure of marble-style quartz countertops, this kitchen strikes a perfect balance between modern design and luxurious detailing.
Upon entering, your eyes are immediately drawn to the slab grey doors. Their understated hue exudes a quiet elegance that's both contemporary and timeless. The sleek, unadorned slab design speaks volumes about the modern design ethos - a celebration of clean lines, simplicity, and uncluttered aesthetics. The grey tone is neutral yet impactful, versatile enough to complement a range of color schemes while adding a hint of sophistication.
Contrasting the understated elegance of the grey slab doors, the marble-style quartz countertops introduce an element of grandeur to the kitchen. They instantly become a statement piece in the room, drawing attention with their captivating patterns and luxurious sheen. The quartz surface is not just aesthetically appealing, but also practical - it's highly durable, heat resistant, and easy to clean, embodying a perfect marriage of beauty and functionality.
The interplay between the smoky grey of the slab doors and the swirling patterns of the marble-style quartz creates a visual spectacle that's nothing short of mesmerizing. The cool tones of the grey slabs accentuate the white veins in the marble quartz, creating a seamless aesthetic flow throughout the kitchen.
State-of-the-art appliances nestle seamlessly into the slab grey units, their modern design and stainless steel finish reinforcing the room's contemporary vibe. Meanwhile, the lighting design enhances the beauty of the quartz countertops, with carefully placed pendants and under-cabinet LEDs accentuating their natural sheen and intricate patterns.
This modern kitchen, with its slab grey doors and marble-style quartz countertops, is a true testament to the idea that simplicity can be luxurious. It offers a visually stunning, highly functional space where every meal preparation becomes an indulgent experience. Here, modernity meets elegance, culminating in a kitchen that's both a pleasure to look at and a joy to use.

The Home
The Horizon is the culmination of many years of thoughtful customer ideas, past and present, that have influenced our designs. Our
stunning semi-custom home represents true main-level living with panoramic views, on 35 acres in Peyton. The Horizon features large
windows thoughtfully placed to capture stunning Pikes Peak views, provide natural light, and passive solar gain in the open living, dining and kitchen area.
With just over 3,800 square feet, four bedrooms, four bathrooms and a dedicated office this home is stylish, functional and efficient. The master bedroom and its oversized windows were designed to highlight the mountain view with a spa-like master bathroom and large walk-in closet, allowing direct passage to the laundry room. A large, covered back deck, stone accents and oversized three-car garage contribute to paramount wish-list items. This luxurious home fits the custom market without the custom price.
