Our Kitchen Renovation Journey: Creating a Functional and Stylish Space

🛠️We're starting a complete kitchen renovation to address the problem areas and improve functionality.

🎨Our design inspiration includes darker cabinetry, a custom hood, and a lighter wall color for a stylish look.

🌟We're opening up the space, adding skylights, and creating a cathedral ceiling to maximize natural light and create a larger feel.

💡Increasing storage and counter space is a top priority to eliminate clutter and improve functionality.

🔨We'll be relocating the refrigerator and oven, and optimizing the layout for better flow and usability.

What inspired your design choices for the kitchen renovation?

—We found inspiration in darker cabinetry, a custom hood, and a lighter wall color. We wanted a stylish and timeless look.

How are you addressing the problem areas in the kitchen?

—We're opening up the space, adding skylights, and creating a cathedral ceiling to maximize natural light and create a larger feel. We're also increasing storage and counter space to eliminate clutter.

What changes are you making to the layout?

—We're relocating the refrigerator and oven to optimize the layout and improve flow and usability.

Why did you choose to create an eat-in kitchen instead of an island?

—We wanted a design that reflected the time period of the house, so an eat-in kitchen felt more authentic. It also allows for more seating and a social atmosphere.

How are you maximizing natural light in the kitchen?

—We're adding skylights and opening up the space to let in more sunlight. We also have a lighter wall color to enhance brightness.
