Project Brief

The homeowners wanted to transform their outdated kitchen into a bright, modern, open-concept space with: Fully custom walnut cabinetry A large waterfall island for hosting and prep High-performance appliances Clean, modern finishes Better workflow for cooking and entertaining A minimalist look—no bulky hardware, no visual clutter The biggest challenge was integrating modern functionality while maintaining the warmth and organic character of the wood tones.

Our Solution

We rebuilt the entire kitchen layout to maximize light, efficiency, and aesthetic flow. Custom Walnut Cabinetry Fabricated flat-panel walnut cabinets with soft-close hardware for a sleek, uninterrupted visual line. Integrated a built-in fridge for a seamless, flush appearance. Added open wood shelving for warmth and visual balance. Quartz Waterfall Island Installed a large white quartz waterfall island that serves as the kitchen’s centerpiece. Provided seating for four, making it ideal for cooking, hosting, or casual dining. Included an under-counter microwave to improve workflow and free up counter space. Backsplash & Fixtures Added oversized white subway tiles for a modern yet timeless backdrop. Installed a stainless steel hood vent and premium gas stove for professional-grade function. Used a sleek pull-down faucet and stainless undermount sink to maintain minimal visual noise. Flooring & Lighting Installed wide-plank natural wood flooring to tie together the warm walnut tones and bright white finishes. Added globe pendant lights over the island for soft, modern illumination. The final space delivers exceptional performance, clean lines, and warm modern character — a kitchen built to last and made to be lived in.
