Emma Gerancher from Reico Kitchen & Bath in Charlottesville, VA, partnered with Luis Dorta of LED Construction to design a transitional kitchen featuring Masterpiece cabinetry. The kitchen includes the Barton door style in a Cottage finish for the perimeter and a custom Sherwin-Williams Mount Etna painted finish for the island.
The space also features MSI W Calacatta Safyra countertops, along with a Frigidaire canopy hood and microwave.
The client shared, “Gutting our old kitchen to reconfigure the space for better flow, workspace, and storage was a challenge. Emma listened to my needs and offered helpful tips and options, which made the process work. The layout followed the workflow, and my habits and style guided the final details. Reico gave me the options and confidence to trust the process, and the outcome is seamless and beautiful.”
Emma explained, “This kitchen is one of my favorites. The homeowners wanted to replace the peninsula with a custom painted island in Sherwin-Williams Mount Etna, which paired well with the Cottage perimeter cabinets, Calacatta Safyra countertops, sea glass backsplash, and honey bronze hardware. It was a pleasure working with both the homeowners and the contractors throughout the remodel.”

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!

When Bryce first reached out to us, he had a clear vision in mind—he wanted a dining table exactly like our A96 design featured on our website. The flowing white epoxy river, paired with rich black walnut, had caught his eye instantly.
We completely understood his preference. At the same time, we gently explained an important truth about handcrafted solid wood furniture: no two slabs are ever the same. Each piece of black walnut carries its own natural history—grain patterns, tones, and character that cannot be replicated.
Rather than seeing this as a limitation, Bryce embraced it as part of the beauty of owning a truly custom piece.
Our team carefully sourced a rare and exceptionally beautiful black walnut slab, selected for its rich color variation and striking, organic grain. The wood was then paired with a clean white epoxy river, creating a balanced contrast between warmth and modern elegance. Every detail was crafted to echo the spirit of the A96 design, while allowing this table to stand as a one-of-a-kind creation.
From selection to final finishing, this table became more than just furniture—it became a collaboration between vision and craftsmanship.
When Bryce received the table in his new home in Colorado Springs, his message to us was simple but meaningful:
“Looks great in our new home in Colorado Springs.”
Moments like this remind us why we do what we do. Every table tells a story—and this one now begins a new chapter in a beautiful Colorado home.

The IKEA kitchen establishes a modern look without sacrificing a sense of warmth.
“Our vision was to combine some shades of gray with black and white, diluting the palette with warm gold/brass and silver/nickel,” Sergei explains.
The result is a cool combination of high-gloss white IKEA RINGHULT doors with IKEA brass ENERYDA handles for the upper cabinetry (which run from the stainless steel refrigerator along the perimeter of the ‘grotto’ past the range and to the adjacent sink area) along with the stainless steel IKEA GREVSTA drawer fronts and toe kick; as well as IKEA’s UTRUSTA drawer fronts, for the base cabinetry. This is enhanced by dark wood flooring, as well as the white IKEA HAVSEN sink with an IKEA NYVATTNET kitchen faucet in polished brass and the white quartz countertops.
Sergei continues: “Some accents in the kitchen, such as the kitchen faucet and handles, are in a brass color to match the old clock face placed on one of the walls. Yes, it’s a real clock face dated back to 1929, which was removed from one of the ancient buildings in New York. These elements were used to enhance the high-end design factor and coordinate with the rest of our home.”

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.
