In the classy suburb of Tustin, the owners of a local home wanted to give it a bit of personality through a professional kitchen renovation.
Before
The original kitchen was fairly generic and unremarkable. This didn’t match at all with the owners’ affinity for brightness and cheer. We updated the kitchen with fresh transitional design elements and improved cabinet storage. Moreover, we incorporated unique style accents to enhance the space.
Restructuring
We started by laying the floors with Timber Frost tiles by Eleganza. That set the stage for the soft and muted spring-inspired palette we planned to implement in our subsequent work.
The maple custom cabinets form a functional G-shaped layout with Euro-style construction. Moreover, the Victorian doors and powdery white DE Swiss Coffee finish create a clean, classic look. They include fold-out corner doors, built-in lazy susans, and a vertical tray pull-out. Belcastel stainless-steel handles enhance the doors and drawers for a polished finish. Moreover, hidden rail lighting brightens the space beneath the cabinets. Sleek gray countertops create a clean, modern surface throughout the kitchen. Moreover, their 1½-inch single-bevel edge adds sharp, refined detail. This protrudes over the outer section of cabinetry to create a casual breakfast bar. Here, hidden storage consists of a cabinet concealing pull-out tray shelving.
At the tops of the cabinets, you can see where we put in Colonial crown moulding, which was also extended to the window casings and the rest of the walls.
The outer kitchen walls feature a pastel yellow paint that brightens the space. Also the color adds a sunny, uplifting feel. As for the rest of the kitchen’s walls, they were covered with a backsplash of glossy tiles in a subtle mint hue. The mix of wall colors creates a lively visual effect in the kitchen. Moreover, hanging lamps with vibrant casings enhance this colorful interplay. A fresh and charming appearance is the final result.
Appliances
Our client chose mostly stainless steel appliances for their new kitchen. These include a Samsung 30” 5.8 cu. ft. Slide-in Gas Range with Intuitive Controls beneath a 30” Stainless Steel Range Hood, set against the center of the kitchen’s back wall. To the right, the GE Profile™ Series 1.1 Cu. Ft. The countertop microwave oven fits neatly into the custom cabinetry. Moreover, the LG 36-inch 23-cu-ft unit is also built in for a seamless look. Counter Depth 4-Door Refrigerator with FlexZone™ Drawer. Beneath the kitchen window is a large undermount apron-front sink. This is neighbored by a Bosch 24″ Recessed Handle Dishwasher, selected in a white finish so that it could blend in with the surrounding cabinets.
