When these clients came to me it didn’t take long to realize how much they love their home. They cherished the memories that it had allowed them to create. Their home was - and still is their “happy place.” This absolutely made me so excited to help guide them through their remodel. I truly believe that no matter the paint color on the walls or the finishes on the fixtures, the people make a home.
Needless to say the existing fixtures and paint had served their purpose for a few decades, and it was time to give this family a fresh new look. We had so much fun taking this home from outdated to updated, fresh and ready for fun for years to come.
The home had existing wood beams, and that really set the stage for this kitchen. With the tall ceilings we knew there was endless potential to create an open kitchen. One of the major additions we made to the space was adding a hood to the focal paint of the space. We also relocated the microwave, adding it to the island. The countertops we selected are a white quartz, and the existing red sink was replaced with a fresh white farm house sink from Kohler. The kitchen cabinet paint color is Benjamin Moore Stonington Grey.
In order to really take advantage of the tall ceilings, we decided to wrap the kitchen cabinetry with crown and carry the subway tile to the top of the ceiling. We worked hand-in-hand with Wendt Custom Cabintery to update the kitchen cabinetry as well as built-in’s to the lower level living area.
We actually ended up removing an entire bedroom in the lower level of this home, to create an open entertainment area. The paint color we chose for the built in’s is Sherwin Williams Pewter Green. We accented the space with brass hardware and kept the stained accents cohesive through out.
This project was a labor of love and collaboration. It look each member of the team from the contractor, to the cabinetry builders to make this project the success it became. We could not be more happy with the end result.
