The Kitchen re-design is built around work stations. Clean up, cooking, and preparing meals all work in zones. The island is truly an "island" in that it floats between the living room and the work zones. The deep drawers of the island make it an ideal prep zone where the kids can all be a part, and the table seating grows from the cook zone for easy meal transfer. Every day at the lake is easy and this kitchen layout keeps everyone in the family involved.

These clients loved they're new house but the boring builder kitchen was not want the wanted. The entire kitchen was redesigned and the new layout is much more functional. Extending the island down the center and removing the L shaped one previously there, opened up the space tremendously. We extended the kitchen across the entire back wall adding a bench with storage and wine rack. The beautiful blue pearl granite compliments the soft gray wash on the island as well as the ice white shaker cabinets. The clean marble hexagon backlash is uninterrupted thanks to hidden plug bars under the cabinets. The soft and playful wood lighting fixtures keep the room from getting too stuffing and pair well with the various tan shades in the rug and fabric.These clients loved they're new house but the boring builder kitchen was not want the wanted.

This 80 year old farm house was in need of an update. The kitchen and dining areas were cramped, dark and isolated from one another. The homeowner requested an open floor plan with more storage and space where her children could play while she was busy in the kitchen. Thompson Remodeling flipped the existing positions of the dining room and kitchen and removed walls to open up the space. The new kitchen has bright white cabinets, quartz countertops and an island with a butcher block counter. A custom banquette provides seating and a spot for the kids to play and do homework while its bench doubles as hidden storage. The wet bar in the dining space has loads of pantry space. The existing floors were very uneven, so we used a vinyl plank flooring that would allow more give for installation. It looks just like weathered pine and will offer very easy care for the busy family.

The Bailey Counter Height Set brings cheerful spring energy into any kitchen or dining nook. With light tones, hidden storage, and cozy padded seats, this space-saving set is perfect for casual meals and friendly gatherings alike.

The renovation began in the kitchen, where the original layout and ornate cabinetry limited both functionality and flow. To create the large central island our clients desired, we moved the adjoining wall 18 inches into the living room, opening the space and establishing a more generous footprint for cooking and gathering. The reimagined kitchen features white oak cabinetry with hidden storage, dramatic black stone countertops with bold veining, and a sleek, modern aesthetic that feels both inviting and architectural.
