This kitchen and pantry were part of a two-story, 2,000-square-foot addition to this home. The goal was to create a space for this family of five to have plenty of room to entertain. The client wanted two large islands to prep meals and additional items were added to help streamline this process. Two dishwashers, two microwaves and a hands-free faucet and garbage roll out keep busy hands clean and limit wait times. The Taj Mahal counters set the mood for the kitchen and work with the deep green separate bar area and dark bison stained cabinets.

These homeowners were looking for a kitchen that fit their lifestyle, needs and aesthetic. The kitchen redesign added a wall between the mudroom and laundry area, which allowed the kitchen to be expanded by pushing the range wall into the previously oversized mudroom. The refrigerator and freezer were then split to add balance and openness to the space. A walnut hood with a lower brass accent band sits above the 48” dual fuel range. The kitchen island continues the use of walnut and comfortably sits four chairs.

This warm and inviting kitchen was designed to embrace the light. The only window in the space is above the kitchen sink and doesn’t flood the kitchen with light. To complement this rather than fight against it, deep olive greens and mushroom tones were chosen for the perimeter cabinets, along with white oak for the islands. The kitchen’s focal point is the oversized custom brass hood with a hand-rubbed finish. This was made possible by taking space from a previous walk-in pantry and broom closet, expanding the kitchen.

The homeowner transformed this 1930s kitchen into a functional and inviting gathering area. To improve the layout, they removed a wall between the kitchen and dining area and widened a hallway entry to seamlessly blend the two spaces. For additional counter space, a peninsula adds more meal prep space and an area for guests to gather. Modern finishes like updated hardware, sleek appliances and fixtures and an elevated aesthetic complete this efficient, bright kitchen.

Transforming a previously non-functioning kitchen, Karr Bick used intentional design elements to adjust the space to the homeowner’s needs. Custom green cabinets, a rich walnut island and herringbone hardwood floors make a striking statement. Vintage-inspired appliances and careful selection of materials ensured the renovation would blend seamlessly with the rest of this Century home.

This historic 1875 home was in need of a remodel. One of the first decisions was to move the kitchen and dining area. A portion of the covered porch was absorbed into the living room, the dining area was moved to the previous kitchen and the fireplace and powder room removed to create a large kitchen space. A peninsula was chosen over an island to further maximize the space, and small shallow areas were used to “sink” tall cabinets and create storage. The French range is stainless with brass accents, and all the hardware and plumbing are made of polished unlacquered solid brass.
