Gorgeous dark red Verona range along with matching modern hood, perfectly complimenting the modern look of the white lacquer and gray veneer wood finish Italian Kitchen.

Although the kitchen is compact, the family cook is able to work more efficiently in the space than ever, due to a well thought-out work triangle and a brand new stainless steel range hood, which allows her to take cooking orders and improves the kitchen's air circulation. With only one cook in the family, it made sense to move the microwave away from the triangle, so that other family members could use it without disturbing her. Meanwhile, base and upper cabinets allow for maximum storage in the tiny room.

Dionne & Matt decided to refresh their kitchen to enhance its functionality and aesthetic appeal, with a vision to maintain the essence of their home while upgrading to more contemporary features. In this comprehensive makeover, the kitchen was entirely stripped down and cleared, setting the stage for a vibrant new beginning. They added a blend of elegance and practicality with Waypoint's Painted Linen for the perimeter and Painted Navy for the island, complemented by a striking Sollid Cognac Alder range hood. Cabinet hardware from Amerock's Blackrock collection in Champagne Bronze and various cabinet accessories were carefully chosen to maximize storage efficiency and accessibility. The kitchen's utility was further improved by installing a new garbage disposal and reworking ductwork and electrical systems to accommodate the new layout and appliances. MSI Calacatta Elysio quartz countertops with a sleek mitered edge were expertly fitted. The backsplash, using textured 3" x 12" subway tiles, extends from counter to ceiling.

Conversion of a small ranch house to a larger simplified-Craftsman style house. We retained most of the original house, rearranging a few walls to improve an awkward layout in the original house, and added a partial second story and converted a covered patio space to a dining and family room. The clients had read Sarah Susanka’s Not So Big books and wanted to use these principles in making a beautiful and ecological house that uses space efficiently.

The owners of this 1930’s craftsman home in West Lafayette were ready to fall in love with their home all over again. To do so, they had to remove the giraffe-inspired flooring, dated wallpaper, and stucco soffits. Beyond the aesthetic appeal of a retro style kitchen design, these homeowners turned to Riverside Construction to plan their kitchen remodel for maximum efficiency—to create useful and efficient storage space, larger countertops, and improve traffic flow. This complete kitchen gut and remodel involved tearing down walls, including removing a small partition near the stove, to gain much needed square footage. The existing peninsula was relocated to the opposite side of the kitchen, and the range and refrigerator exchanged places for improved functionality. White Shaker style Wellborn cabinets, yellow Retro “Big Chill” appliances and a retro pendant light/fan combo by Fanimation rounded out this bright and airy kitchen remodel.

HOMEOWNER DESIRED OUTCOME These new grandparents moved to Dallas to be closer to a new grandchild. The house was in the perfect neighborhood, but as a spec home lacked the necessary design planning the couple was looking for, especially in the kitchen. OUR CREATIVE SOLUTION Blackline created a custom island that immediately improved the work flow of the kitchen and added convenient additional bar seating for three. It also featured a new range, plenty of extra storage, and was topped in a show-stopping Daltile polished ‘Copacabana’ Granite. The new kitchen is bright, functional, and the perfect spot to host family, friends, and of course, grandchildren!

Clients chose to update their home with a cabinet/countertop/flooring remodel. Remodel utilizes Kraftmaid Cabinetry (Durham Maple Square - Natural Finish), Allen + Roth Quartz (Tocana) Countertops, Stainless Steel Appliances (Bosch Dishwasher, Whirlpool French Door Refrigerator, LG Slide-In Range, LG OTR Microwave), Smartcore Locking Vinyl Flooring (Messina) and Stainless Steel Apron Front Sink. Floating Island Cabinet supplied from Diamond Cabinetry (Gresham Maple - Natural Finish). Client also installed a Reliabilt double hung replacement window above sink. All materials for project purchased at Lowe's Home Improvement.

Kevin and Mary enlisted our services with the objective to modernize their antiquated kitchen. Their goals weren't restricted to a purely aesthetic overhaul; they asked us to devise a layout that prioritized better organization and storage options with improved lighting. We took great care to remove all the old components of the kitchen, then we proceeded to install the new Dove White Shaker style cabinets, and a larger contrasting island. In their pursuit of a perfect blend of aesthetics and utility, they selected Victoria White Quartz Countertops for the perimeter cabinets, and balanced that with the compelling elegance of White Ice Granite Countertops for the kitchen island. The selection of Flash Ivory 3x12 ceramic wall tiles were selected for the backsplash. A custom made range hood was installed breaking up the monotony of the wall cabinets and finishing off their gorgeous new kitchen.

My top design goal was to create a functional workshop for cooking that improved the client's lifestyle. The layout was key: especially using separate food prep and clean-up sinks to create individual workstations. The step-in corner pantry is a very efficient use of floor space and maximizes not only storage capacity but also visibility—the client opens one door and can see everything she has on hand at a glance. This is the feature she likes best. The husband is the primary cook and he loves the high-BTU burner Wolf rangetop. It accommodates his 13-inch All-Clad saute pan with ease and makes all his stovetop cooking faster, better, and more fun. Aesthetically, I wanted to create a sophisticated look that would enhance the atmosphere of the living area while defying trendiness. Photo by Lane Barden

Fanciful and seamless glass scalloped tile travels from counter top to the decorative range hood with a metallic backed accent that borders the stove back splash. The remaining back splash on both sides of the industrial stove are stacked rectangular green glass tiles adding only a hint of color but are low maintenance and easy to clean.

The custom kitchen features Candlelight Cabinetry, in the full overlay Mission door in Autumn Glow stain in Red Birch. The countertops are Colonial Gold Granite and they are gorgeous! This homeowner wanted to include a small seating area for her and her husband in this small kitchen, but did not want to give up the storage space either. We created a shallow depth base with an overhang in front for seating. Above this area are Mission style glass doors and a small wine holder. With the updated stainless steel appliances and new tiled backsplash, this kitchen is a major improvement for this suburban home. Photo by Lauren Nelson.
