Project Description
Client's Goals
- Lighten up the dark, U-shaped kitchen.
- Create more functional storage space, especially in the current kitchen’s three hard-to-utilize corners.
- Create more countertop space.
- Have the ability for two cooks to work in the kitchen at the same time.
- Wanted yellow cabinets.
Designer's Solutions
- Remove one wall to open the kitchen up to the rest of the house, allowing for a more spacious floor plan.
- Add a post for structural support, which helps define the space for the kitchen.
- Raise the kitchen ceiling to open the space to the adjoining family room and the family room's sloped ceiling.
- Add taller wall cabinets for more storage space.
- Add corner cabinets with an open shelf for easier access.
Cost
The initial budget of $40,000 was intended for the remodel of the kitchen’s existing space. The designer provided the client with options both within the existing space and with a removed wall. The clients liked the idea of opening the space to the rest of the house for a warm and open floor plan, increasing the cost to $47,000.
