For this kitchen renovation, we transformed a cramped, dated layout into a bright, open, and highly functional heart of the home. We reconfigured the space to improve flow, added skylights to flood the room with natural light, and installed custom cabinetry for dramatically increased storage. The cabinets were refinished in a rich, modern green to bring warmth and character, while new countertops and backsplash elevated the look with durable, low-maintenance surfaces. We built a large custom island for gathering, prep, and everyday living, added a dedicated desk nook for working at home, and created a built-in wine and beverage station complete with a mini fridge. Upgraded lighting, new hardwood floors, and architectural ceiling details finished the space, resulting in a timeless, inviting kitchen designed for both daily life and entertaining.
