Christine Wade from Reico Kitchen & Bath in Salem, VA, partnered with Dennis Roberts to design a transitional kitchen featuring Yorktowne Cabinetry in the Millgate door style with a White Icing finish. The kitchen also includes Cambria Praa Sands countertops, 3x9 Sonoma Aquarius tile with #20 Eggshell grout, and Frigidaire appliances. The clients shared, “We completely redesigned our kitchen and could not be happier with the results. Our Reico salesperson listened to our ideas and concerns and offered several design options. She helped us choose a layout that is both beautiful and functional, and a better fit than the original design. While the remodel was challenging at times, we are so glad we did it.” Christine explained, “The client wanted a desk in the kitchen for extra workspace during the week, but it wouldn’t fit in the layout. Instead, we created a built-in desk that can be closed off during entertaining and blends in with the rest of the space.” Photos courtesy of The Sowder Group.

Designed by Sepi Zanjani of Reico Kitchen & Bath in Richmond, VA, this transitional two-finish kitchen design features Merillat Masterpiece cabinets in the Fairlane door style with 5 piece drawer front in 2 wood species and finishes. The perimeter kitchen cabinets feature Maple with a Canvas finish. The kitchen island cabinets feature Cherry with a Molasses finish. Kitchen countertops are granite in the color White Ornamental with a 1/4" beveled edge and Kohler Simplice 596-VS faucet. The kitchen also features a Serpentine Accord SA96 tile backsplash. According to the client, "Our kitchen was very small before and now we have a lot of space and the islands adds so much to the layout. Sepi had so many great ideas and suggestions. She had a great vision on how the kitchen would look and explained everything in detail. We told her things we wanted and didn't want and she was very accommodating to all our wants and needs."

This steeply sloped property was converted into a backyard retreat through the use of natural and man-made stone. The natural gunite swimming pool includes a sundeck and waterfall and is surrounded by a generous paver patio, seat walls and a sunken bar. A Koi pond, bocce court and night-lighting provided add to the interest and enjoyment of this landscape. This beautiful redesign was also featured in the Interlock Design Magazine. Explained perfectly in ICPI, “Some spa owners might be jealous of the newly revamped backyard of Wayne, NJ family: 5,000 square feet of outdoor living space, complete with an elevated patio area, pool and hot tub lined with natural rock, a waterfall bubbling gently down from a walkway above, and a cozy fire pit tucked off to the side. The era of kiddie pools, Coleman grills and fold-up lawn chairs may be officially over.”

If I were to explain the atmosphere in this home, I’d say it’s happy. Natural light, unbelievable view of Lake Murray, the mountains, the green hills, the sky – I used those natural colors as inspiration to come up with a palette for this project. As a result, we were brave enough to go with 3 cabinet colors (natural, oyster and olive), a gorgeous blue granite that’s named Azurite (a very powerful crystal), new appliance layout, raised ceiling, and a hole in the wall (butler’s window) … quite a lot, considering that client’s original goal was to just reface the existing cabinets (see before photos). This remodel turned out to be the most accurate representation of my clients, their way of life and what they wanted to highlight in a space so dear to them. You truly feel like you’re in an English countryside cottage with stellar views, quaint vibe and accessories suitable for any modern family. We love the final result and can’t get enough of that warm abundant light!

Based on her experience with several renovation projects, the owner reflects that “renovations always take longer and cost more than what you first think. That’s just the reality of renovations. You’re going to find stuff along the way. You learn to prepare for that. Having said that, there weren’t really any surprises with this project.” She also appreciates the collaborative approach that Way-Mar brings to a project. “Way-Mar always gives options and explains the differences - taking into consideration your personal preferences and priorities.” Early on with this home, the owners worked with different contractors and got several quotes to help choose the best company. She says they learned the “hard way” that not all contractors are the same. A few times it looked like a good job was done on the surface but things were done poorly or incorrectly and had to be redone. The couple feels fortunate to have connected with Way-Mar early on.“Way-Mar stands out in their commitment to customer service and quality. That’s worth a lot. We have built up a lot of trust over the years so we are never concerned that we are getting ripped off or if the work will be done right. I feel they always offer a fair price and we get excellent value for our money.” “We’ve built a good long-term relationship so they know us pretty well. Way-Mar makes suggestions based on what they think is most suitable for us. We’re always happy with the results.” photo: jeff brubacher

Nancy Knickerbocker of Reico Kitchen and Bath in Southern Pines, NC designed a transitional kitchen design featuring Merillat Classic cabinetry. The kitchen cabinets are in the Ralston door style with a Steel Grey finish, complimented with Caesarstone Taj Royal countertops. The kitchen also includes Kohler Undertone undermount single-bowl D-shape kitchen sink, Kohler Graze faucet and Top Knobs Ash Grey hardware. "We added accessories to make this small kitchen more functional," explained Nancy. "By reducing the size of the sink base and opting for a D-shape sink, we created space for a trash cabinet. A wall filler near the range was changed to a spice pullout, transforming wasted corner space into storage. We installed a full lazy susan in the base corner cabinet by the range and a half-moon lazy susan by the dishwasher. I enjoyed the challenge of maximizing space, and I believe we succeeded.” Photos courtesy of ShowSpaces Photography.

Jennifer Hazen from Reico Kitchen and Bath in Charlottesville, VA, collaborated with Salone Construction to create a contemporary kitchen and beverage bar design featuring Merillat Masterpiece cabinetry. The kitchen cabinets feature the Martel door style in an Evercore Dove white finish, while the beverage bar and range wall doors are Cherry in a Slate stain. The countertop is Caesarstone Noble Grey engineered quartz. Jennifer's favorite aspects of this kitchen design revolved around the "contrasting dark cabinet doors on painted white cabinets on the range wall. The client came up with this idea, and I was all in. Flip-up stacked doors at the double oven and beverage bar, along with the oversized kitchen island, allowed us to utilize every available square inch of the quartz slab!" Jennifer also highlighted the significance of open communication with the client during this project. "She would send over pictures of her vision, explaining why she liked an idea, and it helped me tremendously in the process of making her dream kitchen a reality."
