For this kitchen, designed by Peter Bittner, the client had a very clear idea of what she wanted right from the start. She did her research. The mother of a fast growing, young family, she wanted something as efficient as it was beautiful – on the simple, yet elegant side. Her requests were straightforward: white and light grey Bilotta cabinetry in a transitional style so as not to compete with the detailing inside her 1950s Tudor-style home; a heated tile floor (By Rye Ridge Tile); stainless appliances; white subway tile backsplash by Walker Zanger (again to keep it clean and not compete with its surroundings); and seating at the island for snacks and homework. The “pop” suggested by Peter was done through the satin brass hardware and lighting fixtures. The real challenge with this space was to fit as much as possible into the existing footprint which was overall on the smaller side. The solution was eliminating a doorway (with a swinging door that opened into the kitchen) and stairs from the kitchen to the basement. By moving the stairs and doorway, the usable space increased considerably. The typical working triangle became the focus for one side of the kitchen and the island overhang and seating became available on the other side. To make up for the limited amount of wall cabinets Peter designed shallow pantry-style cabinets along the back wall. Quartz Countertops by Rom Stone Fabrication.

A large round window compliments an open reading area at the top of the stairs and allows afternoon natural light to wash down the main staircase.

The client was unhappy with her existing oak cabinet exteriors that were restained a number of years ago. Aside from the door style being outdated, the colour was washing/wearing off. The client chose to update the kitchen by refacing the upper cabinets in Stain White (solid colour) veneer and using Shaker style doors. The lower cabinets were refaced in Cherry veneer in a Milano stain with the same Shaker door. Drawer fronts are solid Cherry slab style. We also installed new Amerock 5 inch Brushed Nickel handles and Blum SoftClose hinges were used throughout. To increase the storage efficiency we added 8 new pot drawers to the lower cabinets left and right of the stove, and to the left of sink area. Finally, to add more functionality to the existing kitchen layout, a new 48 inch tall bookcase cabinet was added to replace the existing glass curio display case to the left of the sink.

Sal & Leslie envisioned a kitchen update that would improve both its functionality and appearance. They wanted to create a brighter, open layout with increased efficiency while keeping some of the elements they loved. The remodel began with a complete demolition, removing the dated cabinets and dropped ceiling. This allowed for a raised, flush ceiling, which created a spacious and more open feel. They selected Waypoint cabinetry in Maple Rye for the base cabinets and contrasting Painted Linen for their wall cabinets. The full-overlay doors with a five-piece flat panel added a sleek, timeless look. Quartz countertops from Arizona Tile's Della Terra Quartz line in Pro Storm added durability and elegance to the space. To enhance the overall look, a backsplash of MSI Eden Dolomite hexagon tiles was installed, stretching from the countertops to the bottom of the wall cabinets and around the window. The Ruvati Nesta sink, with a 50/50 divide, paired with a Delta Essa matte black faucet, created a stylish and functional centerpiece. Plumbing was upgraded, and a new InSinkErator Badger disposal was installed. To further brighten the space, seven recessed lights replaced older fixtures. Electrical receptacles and switches were updated, and an unused phone jack was removed to simplify the wall space.
