This opportunity was realized when the current owners of this home first purchased it and wanted to personalize it when they moved in. The alcove area under the stairway was there and it’s original intended use is unknown, but the owners wanted a wet bar area to serve the lakeside and back deck areas of the home. A sink, ice maker and mini-fridge were added into the space along with plenty of storage for glasses, tumblers, and an exposed wine rack. The unit was built inexpensively by using regular plywood for the boxes and spending the time and resources on the solid oak doors. Polycarbonate sheeting was used to give the cabinets and opaque view of what is inside as well as the backlighting to enhance to room’s mood without having to use overhead lighting.

Chapel Avenue came to us as a cramped and outdated kitchen, with a peninsula separating the kitchen from the dining area, making the space seem even smaller than it was. Working with this couple, we soon realized they wanted something fun and eclectic to match their personalities. Bringing three cabinet finishes together in one small space wasn't easy, but unifying the kitchen through countertop materials and hardware made it work. Matt Villano Photography

Beautiful new construction, this kitchen is designed for entertaining. Notice the center island between the cooking wall and the cabinets with hardwood flooring.

This was a custom build of a Fireplace and TV entertainment center, and a full kitchen update. We worked with the client to give them the updated modern feel with their love of color. The kitchen design was clean and modern with a solid quartz backsplash and countertops, stainless steel appliances and sink. The cabinets were taken up to the ceiling with glass doors to display some of their beautiful items. We love helping our client realize their vision.

Tuscan Blue Design was brought into this project (house addition) when the client realized she needed a creative-functional-layout for her new kitchen. The first thing the client said to us was that she wanted to see the view out the bay window as she cooked in her kitchen...that led to the idea of two functional islands instead of perimeter cabinetry. She was drawn to farmhouse style kitchens but didn't want her space to feel 'country'. We took classic farmhouse style elements...bead board + painted cabinetry...updated the color palette using warm gray + warm white, custom storage options, and accent lighting to create a fresh take on the farmhouse style.
