Customer’s request: to update her old white laminated builder-grade cabinets, get rid of any sign of the green laminate countertop and 80’s flower wall-paper border. In addition, open the main wall to the family room to allow for guests to mingle without interrupting the chef. Furthermore, incorporate a mud room and communication center without the over-bearing mess, make a kitchen she could entertain friends and family in, and create astonishment with both her creative cooking and the stunning kitchen.
Results: Clean lines, geometric shapes, and efficient functionality take center stage in this kitchen. The tiled backsplash, softly glowing cabinets, and soft colors give the kitchen a sophisticated feel, and Stainless Steel fixtures complement the modern aesthetics. The chalkboard wall is perfect for recording recipes, reminders, grocery lists, and kids' drawings - a whimsical feature that's both fun and functional. The galley kitchen tucks away from the main entertaining spaces, but a window above the sink brings in plenty of light and lets the chef chat with guests. A smart layout aids maneuverability, while large windows at both ends of the home allow natural sunlight to pour in, reducing the need for constant artificial lighting. The cabinets and windows were left undressed to emphasize their vintage architectural style.
