This Glen Ellyn homeowner came to us, frustrated with the layout and size of their current kitchen, looking for help generating ideas for how to maximize functionality within the constraints of the space. After visiting with them and seeing the home’s layout, I realized that looking at the bigger picture of how they used the entire first floor might bring us some dramatic solutions. We ended up flipping the kitchen and family room and taking down the wall separating the two creating one big open floor plan for the family to enjoy. There is still a visual separation between the rooms because of their different lengths and the overall space now relates nicely to the dining room which was also opened up to both rooms.
The new kitchen is an L-shaped space that is no longer cramped and small and is truly a cook’s dream. The fridge is on one end, a large cooktop and sink are located along the main perimeter and double ovens located at the end of the “L” complete the layout. Ample work surface along the perimeter and on the large island makes entertaining a breeze. An existing door to the patio remains, floods the room with light and provides easy access to the existing outdoor deck for entertaining and grilling.
White cabinetry with quartz countertops, Carrera marble backsplash tile and a contrasting gray island give the space a clean and modern feel. The gray pendant lights and stainless appliances bring a slight industrial feel to the space letting you know that some serious cooking will take place here.
Once we had their Dream Kitchen design completed, the homeowners decided to tackle another project at the same time. We made plans to create a master suite upstairs by combining two existing bedrooms into a larger bedroom, bathroom and walk-in closet. The existing spaces were not overly large so getting everything on the wish list into the design was a challenge. In the end, we came up with a design that works. The two bedrooms were adjoined, one wall moved back slightly to make for a slightly larger bedroom, and the remaining space was allotted to the new bathroom and a walk in closet.
The bathroom consists of a double vanity and a large shower with a barn door shower door. A skylight brings light into the space and helps make it feel larger and more open. The new walk-in closet is accessible through the bathroom, and we even managed to fit in a small entry vestibule that houses some additional storage and makes a nice transition from the hallway. A white vanity, Carrera tops and gray floor tile make for a serene space that feels just right for this home.

Originally a nearly three-story tall 1920’s European-styled home was turned into a modern villa for work and home. A series of low concrete retaining wall planters and steps gradually takes you up to the second level entry, grounding or anchoring the house into the site, as does a new wrap around veranda and trellis. Large eave overhangs on the upper roof were designed to give the home presence and were accented with a Mid-century orange color. The new master bedroom addition white box creates a better sense of entry and opens to the wrap around veranda at the opposite side. Inside the owners live on the lower floor and work on the upper floor with the garage basement for storage, archives and a ceramics studio. New windows and open spaces were created for the graphic designer owners; displaying their mid-century modern furnishings collection.
A lot of effort went into attempting to lower the house visually by bringing the ground plane higher with the concrete retaining wall planters, steps, wrap around veranda and trellis, and the prominent roof with exaggerated overhangs. That the eaves were painted orange is a cool reflection of the owner’s Dutch heritage. Budget was a driver for the project and it was determined that the footprint of the home should have minimal extensions and that the new windows remain in the same relative locations as the old ones. Wall removal was utilized versus moving and building new walls where possible.

We love a kitchen transformation because it really impacts a family's lives! This bright and airy kitchen was dark and dated and in desperate need of an upgrade to accommodate a busy family. What used to be a 70s glass block wall is now the dramatic stone backsplash and a new rich blue island brings color and lots of extra storage to the space. We used beautiful custom counter stools to make the island a gathering or work-from-home spot, while the built-in banquette provides a comfortable setting for breakfast. There's a built-in coffee station with a metal mesh panel near the beverage center. We mixed soft brushed brass and matte black metal finishes for the hardware and plumbing.

Smokey Blue Kitchen: A Blend of Classic Elegance and Modern Flair
This kitchen design showcases a harmonious balance of sophistication and warmth, where smokey blue cabinetry sets the tone for an inviting yet stylish space. Thoughtful details such as brass hardware and a striking black island create depth and visual interest, while natural stone countertops bring a touch of organic beauty.
Key Features of This Kitchen Design:
Smokey Blue Cabinets: The cabinetry’s soft, smoky blue color adds a layer of elegance and tranquility, making the kitchen feel welcoming and refined. This hue serves as the perfect backdrop for other design elements, exuding both charm and contemporary appeal.
Natural Stone Countertops: Luxurious, natural stone countertops with subtle veining offer durability and timeless beauty. Their organic patterns pair perfectly with the blue cabinets, adding texture and a natural touch that grounds the space.
Brass Hardware: Polished brass handles and knobs introduce warmth and a hint of luxury, standing out against the smokey blue and complementing the black island. The brass accents elevate the overall design and tie in seamlessly with transitional or traditional styles.
Black Island: The bold, black island serves as a dramatic centerpiece, providing a striking contrast to the softer tones of the surrounding cabinets. This focal point not only enhances the color palette but also adds a touch of modernity.
Pops of Color: Thoughtfully chosen decorative elements, patterned textiles, add personality and liveliness without overpowering the sophisticated color scheme.
Glass Elegance: Glass-front cabinets or pendant lights with glass detailing contribute to an airy, open feel while adding a touch of refinement. These elements subtly reflect light and elevate the kitchen’s ambiance.
This smokey blue kitchen is a masterful blend of classic and contemporary design. The use of brass hardware, natural stone, and a bold black island alongside glass details creates a space that is not only elegant but also rich with character and warmth.
