The Challenge:
This kitchen needed updating, but with the possibility of a move
in a few years time, the renovation had to enhance resale value,
while still reflecting the homeowners' personal style and priorities. |
The Vision:
We would make this room look larger without actually enlarging
the space. This is the first room you see when entering the home,
so we wanted to hide kitchen messes from view. The new kitchen
would be neutral enough to adapt to any decorating style. |
The Process:
The removal of the bulkheads, Florida ceiling, and peninsula
opened up the room. The layout was re-configured so that the
working area of the kitchen is out of the immediate line of sight
from the entry. Traditional white-painted cabinetry, black granite
countertops, and dark oak floors were selected. |
The Result:
The first thing you see now when entering the kitchen is a beautiful
expansive dining area. The simple back-and-white scheme has been
transformed to French Country flavour with bright yellow wallpaper,
exuberant black floral draperies, and cheerful accessories. |
