Embracing the saying, “If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it,” we approached a well-loved kitchen with the idea of enhancement rather than complete overhaul. The homeowners were fond of their kitchen’s layout, and recognizing the sturdy condition of the cabinets, a simple refinishing was recommended. This decision not only preserved their charm but also breathed new life into them. Complementing this rejuvenation, new countertops were seamlessly integrated, marrying both durability and style. The backsplash, chosen with an eye for modern elegance, played a pivotal role in tying the revamped elements together. A crucial aspect of our approach was introducing lightness: by selectively removing certain cabinets and incorporating floating shelves, the kitchen now exudes a more airy and open ambiance, expertly balancing the familiar with the fresh.
