The owners of a charming home in the hills west of Paso Robles recently decided to remodel their not-so-charming kitchen. Referred to San Luis Kitchen by several of their friends, the homeowners visited our showroom and soon decided we were the best people to design a kitchen fitting the style of their home. We were delighted to get to work on the project right away.
When we arrived at the house, we found a small, cramped and out-dated kitchen. The ceiling was low, the cabinets old fashioned and painted a stark dead white, and the best view in the house was neglected in a seldom-used breakfast nook (sequestered behind the kitchen peninsula). This kitchen was also handicapped by white tile counters with dark grout, odd-sized and cluttered cabinets, and small ‘desk’ tacked on to the side of the oven cabinet. Due to a marked lack of counter space & inadequate storage the homeowner had resorted to keeping her small appliances on a little cart parked in the corner and the garbage was just sitting by the wall in full view of everything! On the plus side, the kitchen opened into a nice dining room and had beautiful saltillo tile floors.
Mrs. Homeowner loves to entertain and often hosts dinner parties for her friends. She enjoys visiting with her guests in the kitchen while putting the finishing touches on the evening’s meal. Sadly, her small kitchen really limited her interactions with her guests – she often felt left out of the mix at her own parties! This savvy homeowner dreamed big – a new kitchen that would accommodate multiple workstations, have space for guests to gather but not be in the way, and maybe a prettier transition from the kitchen to the dining (wine service area or hutch?) – while managing the remodel budget by reusing some of her major appliances and keeping (patching as needed) her existing floors.
Responding to the homeowner’s stated wish list and the opportunities presented by the home's setting and existing architecture, the designers at San Luis Kitchen decided to expand the kitchen into the breakfast nook using Wood-Mode cabinetry. This change allowed the work area to be reoriented to take advantage of the great view – we replaced the existing window and added another while moving the door to gain space. A second sink and set of refrigerator drawers (housing fresh fruits & veggies) were included for the convenience of this mainly vegetarian cook – her prep station. The clean-up area now boasts a farmhouse style single bowl sink – adding to the ‘cottage’ charm. We located a new gas cook-top between the two workstations for easy access from each. Also tucked in here is a pullout trash/recycle cabinet for convenience and additional drawers for storage.
Running parallel to the work counter we added a long butcher-block island with easy-to-access open shelves for the avid cook and seating for friendly guests placed just right to take in the view. A counter-top garage is used to hide excess small appliances. Glass door cabinets and open shelves are now available to display the owners beautiful dishware. The microwave was placed inconspicuously on the end of the island facing the refrigerator – easy access for guests (and extraneous family members) to help themselves to drinks and snacks while staying out of the cook’s way.
We also moved the pantry storage away from the dining room (putting it on the far wall and closer to the work triangle) and added a furniture-like hutch in its place allowing the more formal dining area to flow seamlessly into the up-beat work area of the kitchen. This space is now also home (opposite wall) to an under counter wine refrigerator, a liquor cabinet and pretty glass door wall cabinet for stemware storage – meeting Mr. Homeowner’s desire for a bar service area.
And then the aesthetic: an old-world style country cottage theme. The homeowners wanted the kitchen to have a warm feel while still loving the look of white cabinetry. San Luis Kitchen melded country-casual knotty pine base cabinets with vintage hand-brushed creamy white wall cabinets to create the desired cottage look. We also added bead board and mullioned glass doors for charm, used an inset doorstyle on the cabinets for authenticity, and mixed stone and wood counters to create an eclectic nuance in the space. All in all, the happy homeowners now boast a charming county cottage kitchen with plenty of space for entertaining their guests while creating gourmet meals to feed them.

This close-up captures the kitchen’s elevated cooking area and appliance wall. Navy cabinetry surrounds the stainless steel refrigerator, professional-style range, and sleek hood, creating a bold and balanced composition. Brass appliance handles and cabinet hardware add warmth and a touch of luxury, complementing the dark blue finish. White quartz countertops brighten the workspace and provide a timeless surface that pairs well with both modern and classic details. Glass-front upper cabinets display stemware and reflect light, helping the room feel open. The patterned backsplash adds depth and visual interest behind the range. Together, these elements create a polished kitchen that feels tailored and highly functional for daily use and entertaining.

A refined transitional family room anchored by a book-matched marble feature wall and custom white oak millwork running the length of the space. Floor-to-ceiling cabinetry conceals integrated audio-visual and bar storage, with backlit glass shelving displaying curated stemware and accessories. Reeded wood paneling adds vertical texture and warmth against the soft neutral palette. An oversized performance-fabric sectional and swivel chair create an inviting conversation area, while ceiling-mounted sheer drapery softens the natural light and frames the room with quiet sophistication.

This kitchen was designed with the intent of hosting large family gatherings, upwards of twenty people at a time. Locating the kitchen adjacent to the informal eating area, the family room and the patio, was the ideal choice for entertaining. The implementation of a large double island, in an unexpected “L” shape, allowed for a ton of extra space without consequently feeling like an industrial environment.
The choice to panel the expansive fridge and freezer allowed the mirrored stainless-steel display cabinets to really become a focal point in the space. These cabinets worked perfectly to house the client’s large stemware collection. Repeating the mirrored finish on the other side of the room, with a refined hood fan exudes glamour. Lastly, the sophisticated hardware and sculptural light fixtures elevate this kitchen to the contemporary, yet traditional, formal style found throughout the rest of the home.

This large basement wine cellar is conveniently located behind the entertainment room bar. The lighting is on dimmers that can be adjusted for mood lighting or inventory lighting.

The climate controlled room, individual bottle bins, open bottle bins, and wine case storage gives the homeowner the flexibility needed to store their collection of wines. The two custom lit arches were highlighted with beautiful accent tiles that draws attention deep into the elegant wine cellar.Photos taken by Inviniti Cellar Design

This walnut and vintage white custom kitchen boasts many custom features. The mirrored cabinetry image on the ceiling above the island creates a more intimate setting in a large space. The custom china cabinet around the corner was designed specifically to display treasured pieces and store dining linens. A retractable wine goblet rack is hidden in the bar between the existing columns and operates easily by the touch of a switch. Lit cabinets and drawers abound. Two paper towel dispensers are hidden inside drawers. Even the beloved puppies have their own special drawer for feeding times.

A 9' bank of windows is added to the Southern exposure of the room to allow light to flood in most hours of the day.

Pull down restaurant style faucet lends function to this beautiful space. A crystal light bar adds both dimension and sparkle while keeping the room light!

Entertaining was a big part of these homeowners lives, so much so they desired to transform their living room into a new Bar for just that purpose. The goal was to do so in a way that would make the space flow with the other rooms in the house and incorporate colors and materials that felt cohesive with the rest of the home.
The challenging part of achieving this design was finding a happy medium between a “pub style” bar and full on kitchen space. In addition, the materials needed to be durable and hold up to what the space would be for, entertaining! The space was designed with darker cabinets to feel more like furniture pieces within the room. Floating shelves with a high counter, open wine cabinets, and glass doors add to the furniture feel. Streamline, decorative lighting was added to make the space feel more inviting with it’s softer, glass accents.
A beer dispenser was incorporated into the lower-level bar area and a second level was designed as part of the main bar area to incorporate seating for 8. Tall, glass door cabinets that flank the entry were designed to display the homeowner’s stemware. Above the tall glass cabinets are open “X” wine storage for additional bottles.
