These homeowners originally approached us for a dual-bathroom remodel. However, once we sat down with them and went through the discovery process of asking key questions, we uncovered that a kitchen was the priority. Sometimes clients dream bigger than their budgets can afford. Well, actually, they always do, but hey, nothing wrong with being an optimist, right?
They wanted a more modern, useful kitchen without a 90's desk, which draws clutter like flies to honey. We redesigned that space specifically for more useful storage and solved their design dilemma regarding different color schemes by offering a 3 tone solution. In the right light, the upper cabinets and lower cabinets have a slightly different shade, the lower being more grey tone. And obviously, the island is a bright blue.

This is a historical home kitchen transformation and update. This beautiful kitchen features shaker cabinets, brass hardware, white and black paint palette, quartz water fall counters and a quartz backsplash. It also has a charming butler's pantry, very high ceilings and classic walnut stained original oak floors. It also features a granite sink.

This timeless transitional kitchen blends classic design with modern functionality. White shaker perimeter cabinets are paired with Cambria Gladstone quartz countertops and a full-height backsplash for a seamless, polished look. A contrasting black shaker island seats three and is topped with the same quartz, anchoring the space with elegance and practicality.
Key features include a large wood-scooped custom vent hood over a 48" Wolf range, a 36" Thermador refrigerator, and full-height cabinetry for maximum storage. A hidden microwave behind a lift-up appliance garage keeps counters clutter-free, while thoughtful storage—like a 12" spice pull-out, lazy Susan, trash pull-out, and deep 36" drawers with custom organizers—maximizes efficiency.
The brushed brass Top Knobs hardware adds warmth and contrast against the cabinetry, complemented by a matte black Kohler Crue faucet and black Blanco undermount sink. Light wood flooring and floating shelves soften the space, while a large window floods the kitchen with natural light—eliminating the need for pendant lighting over the island and maintaining clean sightlines.
A perfect balance of beauty and function, this kitchen was designed for modern living with timeless appeal.

Our clients wanted their renovation to blend classic design features with modern elements to reflect their elegant, yet comfortable style. The space that needed the most attention was the kitchen which felt dark, cold, and unwelcoming with its traditional espresso-colored cabinets and stainless steel countertops. A two-level peninsula interrupted flow and connectivity with the adjacent spaces. To have the biggest impact and accommodate the kitchen’s expansion and redesign, we relocated a hallway to an exterior wall allowing natural light to flood in.
With Craftsman details throughout the rest of the home, our Our clients wanted a double-sided island (with seating) in their redesigned kitchen, something their old one lacked. To maintain good circulation, we designed a shallow ‘hutch’ and recessed the paneled refrigerator/freezer, so they are perfectly aligned. The creamy tone of the painted cabinets complements the champagne-stained maple, adding softness and warmth to the space. We incorporated traditional details such as a beadboard backsplash, library sconces, and a Venetian plaster hood, but balanced these with more modern features such as a continuous quartz backsplash, updated hardware, fixtures and lighting. Blending old and new creates a space with a sense of history and character – it feels fresh, modern, and comfortable.
The kitchen is a chef’s dream with a suite of professional appliances including a 48” double gas range and separate 24” refrigerator and freezer columns, paneled to integrate seamlessly. Two sinks allow for separate prep and cleaning zones. Open shelves and glass-front cabinets are the perfect way to showcase treasured items and favorite dishware, while hidden accessories keep the cook and kitchen well-organized. Replacing the old peninsula with an island created better flow and connectivity with the adjacent rooms. The kitchen is now brighter, cozier, and more inviting.
An informal dining area connects the new kitchen to the living room and a nearby butler’s pantry got a top-to-bottom makeover. We paired moody blue-green cabinets with a stunning Nero Marquina marble countertop and black sink. Brushed brass was used throughout, from the bar faucet to the hardware and mosaic tile accent. A distinctive drink rail gives a nod to the past while the saturated color on the walls, ceiling and trim feels simultaneously contemporary and timeless.
