1902 Historic Kitchen & Pantry Alamo Heights Remodel

Haven Design and Construction

This 1902 San Antonio home was beautiful both inside and out, except for the kitchen, which was dark and dated. The original kitchen layout consisted of a breakfast room and a small kitchen separated by a wall. There was also a very small screened in porch off of the kitchen. The homeowners dreamed of a light and bright new kitchen and that would accommodate a 48" gas range, built in refrigerator, an island and a walk in pantry. At first, it seemed almost impossible, but with a little imagination, we were able to give them every item on their wish list. We took down the wall separating the breakfast and kitchen areas, recessed the new Subzero refrigerator under the stairs, and turned the tiny screened porch into a walk in pantry with a gorgeous blue and white tile floor. The french doors in the breakfast area were replaced with a single transom door to mirror the door to the pantry. The new transoms make quite a statement on either side of the 48" Wolf range set against a marble tile wall. A lovely banquette area was created where the old breakfast table once was and is now graced by a lovely beaded chandelier. Pillows in shades of blue and white and a custom walnut table complete the cozy nook. The soapstone island with a walnut butcher block seating area adds warmth and character to the space. The navy barstools with chrome nailhead trim echo the design of the transoms and repeat the navy and chrome detailing on the custom range hood. A 42" Shaws farmhouse sink completes the kitchen work triangle. Off of the kitchen, the small hallway to the dining room got a facelift, as well. We added a decorative china cabinet and mirrored doors to the homeowner's storage closet to provide light and character to the passageway. After the project was completed, the homeowners told us that "this kitchen was the one that our historic house was always meant to have." There is no greater reward for what we do than that.

Timeless Elegant Kitchen

Drury Design

THE SETUP Once these empty nest homeowners decided to stay put, they knew a new kitchen was in order. Passionate about cooking, entertaining, and hosting holiday gatherings, they found their existing kitchen inadequate. The space, with its traditional style and outdated layout, was far from ideal. They longed for an elegant, timeless kitchen that was not only show-stopping but also functional, seamlessly catering to both their daily routines and special occasions with friends and family. Another key factor was its future appeal to potential buyers, as they’re ready to enjoy their new kitchen while also considering downsizing in the future. Design Objectives: Create a more streamlined, open space Eliminate traditional elements Improve flow for entertaining and everyday use Omit dated posts and soffits Include storage for small appliances to keep counters clutter-free Address mail organization and phone charging concerns THE REMODEL Design Challenges: Compensate for lost storage from omitted wall cabinets Revise floorplan to feature a single, spacious island Enhance island seating proximity for a more engaging atmosphere Address awkward space above existing built-ins Improve natural light blocked by wall cabinet near the window Create a highly functional space tailored for entertaining Design Solutions: Tall cabinetry and pull-outs maximize storage efficiency A generous single island promotes seamless flow and ample prep space Strategic island seating arrangement fosters easy conversation New built-ins fill arched openings, ensuring a custom, clutter-free look Replace wall cabinet with lighted open shelves for an airy feel Galley Dresser and Workstation offer impeccable organization and versatility, creating the perfect setup for entertaining with everything easily accessible. THE RENEWED SPACE The new kitchen exceeded every expectation, thrilling the clients with its revitalized, expansive design and thoughtful functionality. The transformation brought to life an open space adorned with marble accents, a state-of-the-art steam oven, and the seamless integration of the Galley Dresser, crafting a kitchen not just to be used, but to be cherished. This is more than a culinary space; it’s a new heart of their home, ready to host countless memories and culinary adventures.

White Kitchen Cabinet Ideas

Painting your kitchen cabinets white is a smart design move that will likely keep you satisfied for years to come. That’s because white kitchen cabinets are classic, yet can go in a number of different design directions. From rustic farmhouse to sleek modern kitchens, going with lighter shades offers versatility and beauty. While you browse white kitchen cabinets ideas, consider what shade you like and how it would blend with the other colors and materials in your kitchen.

Choose a Direction, From Modern to Rustic White Kitchens

Settling on a white kitchen is just the beginning. From there, you can go with several different styles. Consider what you’re drawn to, as well as the overall style of your home and its natural surroundings. White shaker kitchen cabinets are a popular choice for their clean and simple look. Shaker cabinets have a recessed panel, simple hardware and little decoration — and work with most styles of kitchens. If you’re going for a more ornate look, you can try to find antique white kitchen cabinets with extra embellishments and molding (or a contemporary look-alike).

On the other hand, white is also the perfect color for modern kitchens. If you’re going for minimalist, Scandinavian style, modern white kitchen cabinets in a basic slab pattern can be very sophisticated. Add in some gold or silver hardware, and your cabinets will take on a chic contemporary look. Keep in mind that painting your cabinets white doesn’t mean the whole kitchen has to be light-colored. For a moody vibe, try pairing white kitchen cabinets with dark floors. Finally, while not strictly white, you can also go for a modern European aesthetic with white oak kitchen cabinets. This light wood pairs beautifully with white finishes for a warmer feel.

Pick a Color Palette to Match Your Kitchen’s Style

White comes in a number of different finishes, from bright glossy shades to more muted creams. In general, brighter whites work well with modern and contemporary kitchens, while off-whites and creams look best in more traditional spaces. While you browse photos, take note of kitchen paint colors that pair well with white cabinets. It’s a good idea to paint small sections of your cabinets with the paint tones you’re considering, and leave them there for a week. That way, you can see how the light in your kitchen works with certain colors. Off white kitchen cabinets are a popular choice, as they look good in most lighting.

You’ll also need to consider the best kitchen colors with white cabinets. While you can paint your walls white, beiges, creams and grays also blend nicely. For a striking look, paint your walls blue or green, or use a colorful tile backsplash to add contrast. When it comes to countertops, almost any material will pair well, from quartz to butcher block. It’s classic to pair white kitchen cabinets with granite countertops, although you may want to choose a lighter-colored granite. If you are going with stone counters, pairing them with white distressed kitchen cabinets can be a great way to achieve a more rustic look.
