A chunky Everest Honed Quartzite not only tops the island but flanks the kitchen and runs straight up the backsplash, making this truly a kitchen built for a busy family that loves to gather and cook.

This entryway features a gallery wall set against textured blush-pink wallpaper, creating a bold and inviting backdrop. A dark wood console is styled with two emerald green table lamps, sitting atop a dark red and orange rug. A glass-and-brass chandelier hangs overhead, while white trim and ceiling provide contrast and balance, creating a layered, elegant, and welcoming entry space.

This kitchen remodeling project was a fun one. This kitchen was good sized but had a very awkward layout and flow. It was long and narrow but had great potential. The removal of two walls made room for a massive island with a prep sink and all the space needed for an efficient kitchen. The new cabinets were done in the Manhattan door from our Kitchen Solvers Classic Collection line. The island and dry bar were done in the Rocky River color while the perimeter cabinets were done in Cashew. For the new countertops, they went with the Torquay Cambria Quartz for the perimeter while the island was done in Berwyn. This two-toned look with a green island and dry bar along with the gorgeous split-faced range hood arch provided the pop needed to make this kitchen one for the books.

When we first began the design of this project, the clients’ main priority was to get more room in their kitchen. The wall that separated the kitchen and dining space was load bearing and spanned the living room space as well, so rather than removing it the way we might in some floorplans, we left a header and created a large opening to help the flow between the spaces. When it came to the style of the kitchen, the ranch-style home was well suited for a classic, transitional style with farmhouse details such as a white apron-front sink. We decided on the two-toned cabinetry after originally discussing the idea of white, but realizing that with grandkids and dogs, having white cabinetry so near exterior doors might not be the best option. The lower cabinets are maple stained with a color called “Coffee” and the white upper cabinets feature a similar colored glaze in the detailing to help tie them together. The floor is a popular CoreTEC product called “Red River Hickory”. The overall tone matches that of the lower cabinets for a seamless look. The white backsplash tile and countertop with simple veining continue the two-toned look. The range hood is a new Zephyr fixture originally designed for commercial kitchens, but became a good choice for homes with low ceilings, as the high suction power allows us to meet building codes without obstructing any views. The other appliances are from the GE Café line – these pieces feature copper accents on the handles, which gave us a great place to start when choosing the showstopping copper pendant over the sink. The redesigned space gives more room for multiple cooks and the removal of the wall allows in tons of extra light from the dining room – without moving or replacing a single window or exterior door. There is ample prep room, storage space, and seating for visitors to the kitchen. The homeowners love their new space, and we are sure they will continue to love it for years to come.
