Doug and Chris already had a nice kitchen, but they wanted a spectacular kitchen. And unlike many clients that want something completely different, they wanted to expand upon what they already loved. The result was a beautiful and functional kitchen that reflected their love of Tuscan charm and organization. Their original flooring and color scheme were to remain but everything else would be improved upon. The appliances were all upgraded and a microwave drawer, induction cooktop, and warming drawer were added. The island with its stunning wood top and custom painted cabinets became a focal point of the kitchen. It also echoed the color and style of the dining room furniture that Chris loved. Decorative moldings, carved legs, open shelves, a wine rack and staggered cabinetry were just a few of the added details. The crowning jewels were the see-through pendant lights, that Chris found, and the travertine splash with custom decorative niche for oils and accessories and the “sparkly” granite tops. What can’t be seen in the pictures is the re-shaped soffits (to match the cabinetry below), all the inner cabinet accessories and the wall that was removed making way for a wrap-around design at the bar. Old world charm and finishes might have inspired this kitchen, but new age function and technology take this kitchen into the future with ease. Photo Credit: Alicia Villarreal

Huge traditional gray three-story house exterior idea

Design by Young Home These by-pass rings allow the panels to be opened and closed over the brackets on a large slider door. Provided by The Fabricsmith.

Custom Forged Iron Rod made to accent the arch windows in this beautiful Dining Room. The template for the rod was made a little larger than the actual shape of the arched window so that the drapery panels could be wider without encroaching too much into the window, keeping out the natural light entering the room.

This Victorian home got the remodel of the century! The builders decided to keep the front Victorian and add an addition onto the back that is right out of the pages of Modern magazine. Designer, Corinne Ekle was responsible for all the interiors from the ground up. Be sure to check out her blog post of the whole experience at http://www.c2designinteriors.com
