Kitchen and Bath Remodel
Every remodel begins with understanding how a home wants to work, and where it quietly resists daily life. In this project, the kitchen and bathrooms were original to the house, layered with decades of use, dated finishes, and layouts that no longer supported how the homeowners lived or entertained.

The Kitchen: Function Hidden Beneath Time
The kitchen was generously sized, but its potential was buried beneath heavy wood cabinetry, patterned tile countertops, and finishes that absorbed light rather than reflecting it. Storage was abundant yet inefficient, sightlines were visually busy, and the space felt disconnected from the surrounding rooms.
Our goal was not simply to “modernize,” but to clarify, to reveal the structure of the space and create a kitchen that feels open, intuitive, and inviting. We studied circulation patterns, window placement, and how the kitchen functioned during gatherings, knowing this room would become the true hub of the home.
