Client Goals

Open up meal prep and weekday flow without removing walls. Keep selections bright and durable, with storage that actually gets used.

Challenges

Tight fridge clearance and tired 1990s finishes. Limited task lighting created shadows on prep zones.

Design Solutions

Relocated the fridge and widened the island aisle. Layered lighting (pendant + undercabinet + potlights). Durable LVP underfoot and quartz counters.

Build Process

Site protection and clean demo, rough-ins, cabinet set, counter template & install, tile, paint, trim, and final clean. Permits coordinated for plumbing & electrical.

Final Details

Quiet soft-close hardware, sealed grout, and a balanced warm/white palette that brightens the space in all seasons.
