Before & After
BEFORE
The Goal: The homeowners wanted an open, well-lit, and well-appointed kitchen area that would allow for a view of their beautiful backyard and pond while they prepared meals. The kitchen also needed a highly efficient layout to offer them better “workable space.”
The Process: We tore out the existing kitchen and turned that space into an open formal dining area. We built out an addition for the new kitchen space, emphasizing a bank of four windows directly overlooking the pond. Next we created a central island with storage space and additional surface area for food preparation and informal dining. The island also provides a sense of enclosure for the kitchen while allowing generous natural light into the adjacent formal dining area. We used superior quality elements such as stainlesssteel appliances, custom-built cabinetry, and new plumbing and lighting fixtures to modernize and beautify the home’s appearance. Special features include honed black granite countertops and a contrasting wood surface on the island, appliance garages with stainless steel doors that minimize clutter, and a custom-built wood and glass cabinet that encases a window and allows light to come in while preserving the view to the outside.
The Summary: The remodeled kitchen offers spaciousness and natural light, in striking contrast to the previous design. In addition, the remodeled kitchen provides a layout that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The end product is a dramatic transformation which exceeded the homeowners’ dreams.
