This renovation turned the previously dated and segregated kitchen, that lacked visibility and interaction, into a beautiful focal point, eliminating walls to enhance mobility and sightlines. Flipping the layout, adding a large functional island, and relocating the sink, to oversee the backyard for pool supervision, improved functionality, and aesthetics. The expansive island serves as a comfortable dining bar with hidden storage, reducing upper cabinetry. The sleek grey shaker millwork paired with stainless and matte-black appliances creates a clean, spacious look. Unique hexagonal tiles transition to hardwood flooring, complemented by warm satin brass pendant lights that elevate and illuminate the space, ensuring a striking difference while maintaining the home’s original shape. The once isolated kitchen, serving as nothing more than a cooking area, is now an interactive social hub.
