A cramped, tired kitchen with a dropped soffit, old appliances, ineffective lighting and lack of storage did not fit this active family’s lifestyle. Our solution was to demo the soffit, reconfigure the layout, improve the lighting and select beautiful glass tile, granite, hardwood floors and custom cabinets. The larger space became the center for this family of five’s dining and entertaining.

This Campbell home underwent a full renovation and addition, expanding the kitchen footprint into the rear yard with a new high ceiling and striking glass wall for an indoor/outdoor feel. The style of the home is Japandi, with soft and warm minimalist design elements throughout.

This photo shows the Dining Room side of the completed gas fireplace remodel. The new smaller recessed light replaced an older "eyeball" that was off-center and ineffective.

this kitchen was functional enough for food preparation, but ineffective for entertaining....the blue tape shows how the new, much larger island would fit the space and make the most of the floorplan.

Closed off, ineffective pantry becomes a usable and organized space with concealed dishwasher, beverage fridge, extra sink & coffee space. Beautiful, hardworking working space that compliments the kitchen and surrounding built ins.
