This kitchen renovation transformed a dark, compartmentalized layout into a light-filled, highly functional space rooted in classic design. Reworking the original peninsula and pass-through allowed us to create a generous central island and dramatically increase both storage and usable workspace. Custom cabinetry extends to the ceiling with substantial architectural molding, while a furniture-inspired range hood and illuminated glass-front cabinetry bring character and balance to the room. A soft neutral palette, natural stone surfaces, textural backsplash and polished hardware complement the home's existing hardwood floors, creating a kitchen that feels fresh and refined while remaining appropriate to the architecture of the home. Thoughtful storage was equally important to the design, with extensive drawer storage, concealed pantry and appliance areas, tray dividers and cabinetry designed around the homeowners' everyday needs.

The existing white oak flooring had appeared red due to the hue of the existing stain. Instead of using a dark stain as a contrast to the lighter gray cabinetry, they chose to enhance the lightness of the existing natural wood and increase overall light levels by going with a pale blonde stain.

Our client's original kitchen lacked adequate storage and counter space. To create a more open flow from the living room to the kitchen, we decided to remove some walls and cabinets over the island, replacing with a ceiling-mount vent hood. We also incorporated an L-shaped counter along the north facing wall to maximize counter space and increase the amount of storage. The combination of custom gray distressed wood cabinetry and sparkling white quartzite countertops create a stunning atmosphere in this previously lackluster kitchen.

We really opened up and reorganized this kitchen to give the clients a more modern update and increased functionality and storage. The backsplash is a main focal point and the color palette is very sleek while being warm and inviting. Cabinetry: Ultracraft Destiny, Avon door in Arctic White on the perimeter and Mineral Grey on the island and bar shelving Hardware: Hamilton-Bowes Ventoux Pull in satin brass Counters: Aurea Stone Divine, 3cm quartz Sinks: Blanco Silgranit in white, Precis super single bowl with Performa single in bar Faucets: California Faucets Poetto series in satin brass, pull down and pull-down prep faucet in bar, matching cold water dispenser, air switch, and air gap Pot filler: Newport Brass East Linear in satin brass Backsplash tile: Marble Systems Mod-Glam collection Blocks mosaic in glacier honed - snow white polished - brass accents behind range and hood, using 3x6 snow white as field tile in a brick lay Appliances: Wolf dual fuel 48" range w/ griddle, 30" microwave drawer, 24" coffee system w/ trim; Best Cologne series 48" hood; GE Monogram wine chiller; Hoshizaki stainless ice maker; Bosch benchmark series dishwasher

We tailored this major kitchen update to meet the needs of our client for whom regularly gathering her adult children and their families for home cooked meals is a tradition hailing from her southern heritage. The Wolf range, Sub Zero refrigerator and freezer, commercial grade range hood and strategically placed prep sink were designed to support her love of cooking and large scale meal preparation. By replacing a smaller island and peninsula with an expansive sixteen foot island we greatly increased both the storage and the seating capacity, providing plenty of space for family and friends to comfortably gather in this true heart of the home. Other must haves like the built in coffee maker, dedicated wine refrigerators and bar area, and a built in buffet niche for storing several dish collections make this a modern kitchen with traditional roots that is ideal for entertaining and relaxing.
