The challenge was how to convert a cramped unimaginative builder’s kitchen into somewhere light and airy where a family of four could live, cook, and be happy. The kitchen needed more space and I took it from wherever I could. The large refrigerator took up space and dominated the room, so we set it back and into a custom designed cabinet, thereby opening up a new window. We also pushed back a wall in the laundry room. The room was designed to fit the way the family lives, with cooking mainly confined to one end and the wine refrigerator and entertaining space at the other.

The room began with builder grade wall-to-wall carpeting, beamless sheetrocked ceilings and a lifeless, unimaginative golden oak fireplace surround. The room was tranformed into this inviting friend and family space, featuring a large flatscreen TV, recessed into (and flush with) custom wainscot fireplace surround. Custom 12-in wide beaded board, together with custom beams were milled to create this beautiful ceiling detail. The original hanging ceiling fan was removed to make way for this wonderfully scaled chrome hanging fixture.

This Harleysville, PA Kitchen was a major overhaul. Meridian Construction opened up walls and created an entirely different layout for this remodel. Others had told the homeowner that a large island was not possible but Meridian saw the potential and helped the customer design an eleven foot island perfect for her baking needs. The beautiful Soapstone countertops and white cabinetry are a dream in this kitchen fit for a chef; complete with hidden spice racks, farmhouse sink, and baker’s table. With the customer, Meridian designed the custom-made Soapstone plaque showcasing the property’s prized pond. Check out the unimaginable “Before” shot in our Before & After Gallery.
