The Challenge

Client Goals & Pain Points:

The clients had just moved into their first home and wanted a kitchen that felt open, functional, and welcoming. The existing kitchen lacked efficient layout and character. They needed better organization, more prep space, and a fresh look to match their vision for the rest of the house.

The Solution

What We Did:

We designed a U-shaped kitchen that prioritized functionality through the classic kitchen work triangle, ensuring easy movement between the stove, sink, and refrigerator. White Shaker cabinets instantly brightened the space, while a subtle-veined quartz countertop added sophistication. The farmhouse sink brought a sense of charm, and a compact peninsula provided both extra storage and a cozy breakfast nook. The kitchen was finished with modern appliances, upgraded plumbing, and warm under-cabinet lighting to round out the space with style and comfort.
