This kitchen was the typical dark stained style that the homeowners had us restyle into a brighter palette. The pantry was reconfigured to create more wall space to the left of the cooking zone. A much larger island now serves as the heart of the home. The light tones in the perimeter cabinetry brighten the space dramatically. Existing flooring was laced in to match the existing material. The gas cooktop was bumped forward and treated with an arched toe valance for a custom look. The beautiful marble tile detail over the cooktop adds richness along with brushed gold accents on the pendants, fixtures, and cabinet hardware.
