This large kitchen was desperately needing a refresh. It was far to traditional for the homeowners taste. Additionally, there was no direct path to the dining room as you needed to enter through a butlers pantry. I opened up two doorways into the kitchen from the dining room, which allowed natural light to flow in. The former butlers pantry was then sealed up and became part of the formerly to small pantry. The homeowners now have a 13' long walk through pantry, accessible from both the new bar area and the kitchen.

Thanks to Houzz for showcasing our work in one of their articles it gave us a great idea for a project. Nooks. Places to get away from it all, enjoy the out doors, peace, and quiet.
This nook is one of our favorites here at Smalls. What a quaint little area to have a conversation with a friend.
