Inspiration for a contemporary galley eat-in kitchen remodel in Seattle with a farmhouse sink, flat-panel cabinets, medium tone wood cabinets, granite countertops, metallic backsplash, ceramic backsplash and stainless steel appliances

Our clients are seasoned home renovators. Their Malibu oceanside property was the second project JRP had undertaken for them. After years of renting and the age of the home, it was becoming prevalent the waterfront beach house, needed a facelift. Our clients expressed their desire for a clean and contemporary aesthetic with the need for more functionality. After a thorough design process, a new spatial plan was essential to meet the couple’s request. This included developing a larger master suite, a grander kitchen with seating at an island, natural light, and a warm, comfortable feel to blend with the coastal setting. Demolition revealed an unfortunate surprise on the second level of the home: Settlement and subpar construction had allowed the hillside to slide and cover structural framing members causing dangerous living conditions. Our design team was now faced with the challenge of creating a fix for the sagging hillside. After thorough evaluation of site conditions and careful planning, a new 10’ high retaining wall was contrived to be strategically placed into the hillside to prevent any future movements. With the wall design and build completed — additional square footage allowed for a new laundry room, a walk-in closet at the master suite. Once small and tucked away, the kitchen now boasts a golden warmth of natural maple cabinetry complimented by a striking center island complete with white quartz countertops and stunning waterfall edge details. The open floor plan encourages entertaining with an organic flow between the kitchen, dining, and living rooms. New skylights flood the space with natural light, creating a tranquil seaside ambiance. New custom maple flooring and ceiling paneling finish out the first floor. Downstairs, the ocean facing Master Suite is luminous with breathtaking views and an enviable bathroom oasis. The master bath is modern and serene, woodgrain tile flooring and stunning onyx mosaic tile channel the golden sandy Malibu beaches. The minimalist bathroom includes a generous walk-in closet, his & her sinks, a spacious steam shower, and a luxurious soaking tub. Defined by an airy and spacious floor plan, clean lines, natural light, and endless ocean views, this home is the perfect rendition of a contemporary coastal sanctuary.

This interior is a curated celebration of artistic freedom and layered textures. It blends Art Deco elegance with bohemian warmth—creating a space that feels both refined and richly expressive. Each element contributes to a narrative that is soulful, slightly unconventional, and deeply inviting. Intricate patterns meet luxurious surfaces: mirrored accents, matte metals, plush textiles, and layered rugs. The tactile contrast brings depth and personality, giving each corner a story of craftsmanship and layered design. Zones transition softly—seating areas, reading nooks, and display shelves coexist without visual tension. Arched openings, sculptural furniture, and atmospheric lighting guide movement through the space naturally, with poetic intention. Lighting is considered art—waning shadows, glowing highlights, and reflective surfaces breathe life into textures. The ambiance is calm but charged: moody yet intentional, theatrical without drama. This is a home that feels lived-in by a creative spirit. It's not rigidly modern, but rather curated—and beautifully imperfect. It exudes warmth, curiosity, and a quiet confidence that invites reflection.
