Kitchen Makeover in Raspberry Falls
Design Concept
It all started with a simple desire to freshen up the kitchen while avoiding a full renovation, all the while getting the most bang for the buck in terms of both style and functionality. After meticulously drawing a few different floor plans and considering various options, it quickly became evident that the best design solution would come from reconfiguring the existing island space and removing the wall that separates the kitchen from the family room, allowing for a more open and inviting atmosphere.
Reimagine and Reuse
The plan would effectively update the kitchen without requiring a significant investment in new cabinetry, by revitalizing the existing island in a thoughtful and innovative way. We reimagined and reused the base cabinets to create a more modern and functional island design, thereby expanding the gathering area where most people tend to congregate and entertain.
Backsplash
We chose a beautiful wavy subway tile and expertly installed it in a striking herringbone pattern, adding depth and visual interest to the overall design.
The previously underutilized kitchen desk had become a magnet for an overwhelming amount of clutter, and the thoughtful decision to remove both the desk cabinets and the surrounding wall truly opened up the space, creating a more airy and inviting atmosphere. This transformation not only enhances functionality but also allows for better movement throughout the kitchen, making it a more enjoyable area for cooking and gathering.
Before After
Before-and After
The kitchen island cabinets have been creatively reused and meticulously refinished to craft a completely new and updated island that enhances the overall aesthetic of the space.
Removing the wall that separates the kitchen from the family room creates a seamless flow between the two areas, more open and inviting atmosphere, and encouraging better interaction among family members and guests. The end result is more spacious and welcoming blending style and practicality, perfect for entertaining or simply relaxing with loved ones.
