Entry #1 Title: Top
of the Line Kitchen Offers Storage
Design Objectives: The main objectives of the
remodel was to create more storage and design an open,
updated kitchen that is not only functional, but beautiful.
To create more storage, the island was designed
to be much larger. This enabled the client to incorporate seating
and house the wine refrigerator in the island. With a chandelier
above, the island is now a beautiful focal point of the room.
A desk was also created to provide the client
with a place to work. Additional storage was realized with the
installation of full extension, roll out pantry shelves and adjustable
shelving in the wall cabinets. Cherry wood cabinets compliment
the wood flooring, and the ceiling height was changed to accommodate
tall crown molding and create a more open appearance.
Entry #2 Title: Bright
Master Bathroom Offers Storage
Design Objectives: The main objectives
of the remodel were to design an open layout, allowing more light
into the room and to create more storage space, giving the
room and updated look.
 In
order to allow in more light, the soffit above the bathroom sinks
was removed and two sets of brush nickel light bars were installed.
The tiled shower wall was also removed and replaced with a frameless
glass enclosure. The shower not includes a seat, recessed shelf
and hand held shower head. The bathroom now has a large, bright
shower and comfortable soaking tub.
To create more storage, an angled
wall was removed near the sit down vanity. This created room to
install a tall linen closet. The vanity’s glazed cabinets
match the vanity and tie in nicely with the rest of the bathroom.
