Design ideas for a mid-sized modern partial sun front yard mulch landscaping in Austin.

Clients were wanting to expand their 50's era semi-bungalow to a full two storey so they could add one more bedroom and bathroom to their second level. Part of the plan was to create an actual master suite with proper ensuite bathroom and walk-in closet space. Phase one took the project to drywall stage, but later we added phase two where we finished the rest of the second level to finish stage along with a complete refresh of the main level with new finishings including flooring and counter-tops. The exterior of the home was also re-done including new windows, doors, and siding plus roof shingles of course. The result was a great and expanded character bungalow in a very desirable area located close to downtown.

Increased space for a larger kitchen was accomplished by relocating the dining room to the front of the home and removing the wall between the existing kitchen and the former dining room. The new layout allows for all the desired appliances, along with plenty of seating at the island and peninsula for this active family. Three windows were removed and a new, larger window was installed over the sink. Two work areas were created between the sink and range. A second oven, microwave drawer and warming drawer were located close to the range. A dishwasher was installed in the island, and for additional storage, new, tall pantry cabinets were placed across from the island. Cabinets were painted cream with a charcoal glaze. A focal point was created by a buffet that includes a wet bar, sink and ice maker. The buffet cabinets are painted black to match the island, along with a decorative backsplash and granite counter in "Ice White." A chevron pattern tile backsplash blends the colors of the cabinetry and the floor, while pendant lights over the island create a striking effect.

In this contemporary kitchen we combined cabinets in two finishes: glossy light grey acrylic and textured melamine with vertical wood grain. The open concept kitchen has a long island with a raised area that hides the 5' Galley sink. The casual island seating is conveniently located close to the refrigerator and the drawer style microwave hidden in the island. The two ovens are tucked under the counter on the two sides of the cook top, making this kitchen layout very practical for kosher cooking. For under cabinetry lights and accents we used LED strip lights and LED puck lights.
