This challenging kitchen came our way at the same time as another similarly located Centennial kitchen. It was apparent that both houses had been built by the same builder: tight space, low ceilings, awkward arrangement, and poor building materials. Our client here is a single mother of three boys with an incredibly demanding work life. Once finally home at the end of a busy day, our client was virtually unable to use her kitchen. Cabinet doors were falling off, limited storage and workspace offered her little opportunity to cook and prep for her children, and the dark and low ceiling created an atmosphere that can only be described as depressing. Our client is also from Louisiana and has always dreamed of a kitchen that reminds her of home warmth and hospitality. Our goal was not only to expand functional storage and workspace, but bring in the southern NOLA appeal that reminds our client so much of home. To do this, we removed the wall between the formal dining room and kitchen to create an extended kitchen that runs the full length of both spaces. The back wall of what used to be the dining room is now the cooking zone for our client: we've relocated her range and microwave, and have created an island full of storage where her children can sit and socialize. We've also lifted up the low ceiling to create a tray ceiling that we have finished with ghostwood. The cabinetry is an off-white color with a hazelnut glaze that offers a more traditional, warm appearance. The island and mini work nook feature dramatic, handmade tin ceiling tiles for a dramatic texture and color. We've finished the space with functional quartz countertops and an arabesque two-toned marble backspalsh. The sinks, faucets and hardware are all in a matte black finish that offer a dramatic pop throughout the space. Little touches of Parisian flair add to this Cajun-French aesthetic and we are so thrilled with the final result!

This traditional kitchen used 2 islands instead of one large island to keep the path between the stone and the sink. The manufactures represented in this kitchen likes our design so much that it was featured in their literature. Photographed by: Gregg Willett

The clients didn't have enough room for storage in their kitchen. We moved the stairs that were in this location, to the Great Room ( see background for stairs). We added this beverage center which is complete with 18" dishwasher, ice maker, bar sink, 2 refrigerator drawers, storage for small appliances behind the tambour doors, and glass ware behind the glass door cabinets. We gave a lot of thought into how the family and their children would use this beverage area. It's a "self-serve" area but everything is laid out logically to help yourself. This eliminates traffic in the cooking area of the kitchen. The new pantries provide vertical pull-outs so the homeowner can see everything they have at once. Since the original cabinets were a custom cabinet & finish, it was not a problem to match this design to the existing kitchen. Photos by Dale Clark

This lovely rural rustic kitchen features walnut stained cabinets on knotty alder, oil rubbed bronze handles, a beige painted island, neutral granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances. Notice the eye-catching tongue and groove vaulted ceiling accented by stained beams and a beige marble kitchen backsplash.

This lovely west Plano kitchen was updated to better serve the lovely family who lives there by removing the existing island (with raised bar) and replaced with custom built option. Quartzite countertops, marble splash and travertine floors create a neutral foundation. Transitional bold lighting over the island offers lots of great task lighting and style.

This corner of the kitchen was previously a desk area. It became a catch-all area and wasn't being used as a desk. What a great way to use this space now with this gorgeous piece to serve the kitchen and dining room.

This kitchen, designed by David Arnoff, features Bilotta Collection cabinetry in a classic Frosty White paint on the perimeter and Rift Cut White Oak with a “Driftwood” stain for the island. The kitchen prior to renovation had a small island and a peninsula that blocked the flow into the other rooms. It also had a massive wood hood that flanked both sides of the range all the way down to the countertop which was very cumbersome and restrictive. The client wanted to reuse their appliances which were fairly new. So the cabinetry had to be designed around those models but laid out with a much more functional flow. David chose to eliminate the existing peninsula to allow access to the sun room and living area. He opted instead for a larger island to give back the space lost by removing the peninsula. This gave the same amount of cabinet and counter space and was far more functional and easier to move around. Since the one wall of cabinets (where the main sink is) had no wall cabinets, David designed the opposite wall with double stacked cabinets for additional storage – with glass fronts for aesthetics. They also raised the custom hood, by Amore, allowing for more countertop space around the range. The countertops are polished quartz, Aurea Stone by Eastern Stone. The Backsplash is a basket weave marble from Greenwich Tile Marble. Sink and faucets by Kohler. Appliances are a mix of Subzero and Wolf. Designer: David Arnoff Photo Credit: Peter Krupenye

Historic homes often undergo several remodels over their lifetime, though these updates can often stray from the home’s original design intention. This couple realized their 1990 kitchen remodel with cherry cabinets and granite countertops no longer felt in sync with the home’s overall aesthetic. Incorporating character and charm into their kitchen was important, and the new finishes now more appropriately reflect the 1920s style of their home.
